The Holly & The Thistle
A short story by Regan Walker
A chance meeting at Berry's wine shop, a misunderstanding and Christmastide all come together to allow the most handsome Scot in London to give Lady Emily Picton the best Christmas gift she's ever had: a marriage not of convenience, but of love.
William Stephen is a wealthy Scottish shipbuilder from the Highlands who attended Cambridge with his good friend Lord Ormond (my hero from Racing With The Wind) and he's spending Christmas in London. When he hears about the beautiful Lady Emily Picton, the widow of one of the heroes of Waterloo, he thinks to enter the field of suitors just for the challenge. After all, she's English. But all that changes when he looks into her thistle colored eyes.
A story to warm your heart for the holidays! I hope you like it.
