The Lady's Christmas Engagement Grace Austen

A forced engagement, an insufferable fiancé, a childhood sweetheart, and a tragic accident all conspire to bring Agnes either her happiest Christmas or her most miserable. Lady Agnes Boyle cringes when her father announces her engagement to the odious Lord Landsfell. He certainly is handsome enough-and wealthy enough; however, he's as sour and disagreeable as her father. Making it worse, she is to be married by Christmas. Agnes wishes she could live with even a modicum of freedom, but it is not to be. When Agnes runs into Giles Barton, she is jolted back to her teen years when she was crazy for him. Now they are both adults, but Agnes finds that her affection for him hasn't changed. If anything, it has increased. But, of course, it is too late. She and Giles, along with his sister, plan a Christmas benefit for a local orphanage. Agnes is entranced with Giles's dedication to helping those less fortunate, feeling complete kinship with him-until her fiancé intervenes. Just as Agnes finally gets up the nerve to do something about her unhappy engagement, a tragic accident catapults her right back into her fiancé's control. But a Christmas miracle could change everything...
