Once Upon a Regency Tale
(2017)(A book in the Regency Fairy Twists series)
A collection of stories by Samantha Holt
Fairy tales and the Regency merge in this three book boxset by USA Today Bestselling author Samantha Holt. Get lost in the Regency world in these three fun, clean reads. Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, and Sleeping Beauty all get the historical treatment in these three novellas.
Wake Me With a Kiss
Once upon a time, in a land far, far away...well, Scotland...Rose lived tucked away from the world with her aunt. Orphaned as a baby and adopted by her aunt, she's used to her eccentric ways--including her overprotectiveness. But Rose wants more from life. However, she never quite expected for Laird Hamish McTavish--complete with kilt--to change things. The brash, and admittedly braw, man is hardly like the charming men Rose has been dreaming of.
Freshly returned from the battlefield with an unexpected inheritance, highlander Hamish is struggling enough to fit in at the sleepy lowland village. When he comes across a feisty young woman with wild hair and a brash tongue on his land, he doesn't expect it to lead to more than a five-minute argument.
But he cannot help himself. His curiosity is piqued. Who is this young woman surrounded by three slightly-crazed elderly women seemingly intent on keeping her from the world? He must find out more.
The Beast Who Loved Me
Isabel has spent her life being scolded for having her head in a book. If only she could find a way to help everyone around her understand her love of reading. She has no choice. She must bring books to her village.
Even if that means braving the wrath of the Beast of Blackmoor. If Isabel is ever going to get her subscription library running, she must risk the ire of the infamous man--and the owner of one of England's best libraries--and demand he help her build her book collection.
But the Beast of Blackmoor has little intention of anyone gaining access to his precious library. This demanding young woman will not be getting her hands on his books...or anything else for that matter. Particularly not his heart...
Dance With Me At Midnight
Eloise has done her best to play the dutiful stepdaughter, taking on the work of her departed mother and running the household and looking after her useless stepbrothers. However, when her stepfather announces she'll be married before summer--to a man she's never met--she's determined to fight it.
Of course, in between battling her stepfather's plans, Eloise has other things to keep her busy. Planning for the spring ball and looking after her ever-growing animal sanctuary. With the help of Bennett, the stablehand, she has nursed and raised everything from a baby owl to a rather naughty parrot. Much to her stepfather's disgust.
Charles, the newly minted Earl of Marlton, always knew he'd be married within months of inheriting the title. Having returned home from his studies in France, he was prepared to be the dutiful heir and take on everything that being an earl entailed--including marrying a wealthy, attractive, well-bred woman. Lord Fairfax has promised his stepdaughter was just that. He's fully prepared to wed the woman he's never met by summer.
Until he meets her that is.
