Is a man holding a gun to his head intending to commit suicide? Abigail Montross believes he is, so she tackles the gentleman in her uncle's library. It isn't until much later that she realizes how handsome Andres Ramigio, Barón de Vasconia, is. He sees right away how different this fiery redhead is from other women. Still, Abby has problems of her own, as her beau seeks her out in the same library to announce his betrothal to Abby's cousin. Trying to restore his Spanish heritage, Andres is enticed to leave London for good in order to gain property in the north. Feeling more at sea than usual after yet a second jilting, Abby accepts the Barón's marriage proposal. Knowing her banker father won't quite see the merit in their plan, Abby makes her own proposal: let's elope.Verdict The holiday season is mere tinsel in Maxwell's (The Marriage Ring) delightful confection about a young woman who can't acknowledge her own self-worth and a man who goes to such lengths to recapture the past that he loses his way. The chemistry between these two bursts upon the pages of this sweet and tender novel from an old hand at historical romance. Brava, Maxwell. You've done it again.—Bette-Lee Fox, Library Journal
