A Diamond for Christmas

Diamonds of the First Water Prequel

A Diamond for Christmas — In a Regency Romeo and Juliet, fierce desire ignites between a lord and a lady from warring families.

Heir to an earldom, Geoffrey Diamond has a saucy grin and dash-fire to spare. He can woo and win any woman in London. Except one glorious redhead!

Lady Caroline is vexed to learn the identity of the only man who makes her heart race like a thoroughbred at the Epsom Derby. And she’s forbidden from even dancing with him!

Risking utter ruin for a chance at happiness, will these star-crossed lovers create a Christmas calamity or discover a Christmas miracle?

Reviews from Readers

“This was a fun read, although it wasn’t fun on every page. It did have some angst to it, but not a lot. The humor was great. The situations were realistic. The love scenes were fade-to-black. The characters were phenomenal. I loved them and I love this story.”
~ Amazon reviewer

“This is Lord Geoffrey Diamond and Lady Caroline Chimes’ star-crossed love story. In this novella, we see how the Diamond’s sibling’s parents met and fell in love. A Diamond For Christmas is a prequel to The Diamonds Of The First Water series. This is an excellent jumping-off point to begin a terrific series. I loved the Romeo and Juliet vibe. Geoffrey and Caroline’s parents were highly entertaining; their bickering towards the end was funny. I liked how there was instant chemistry between Geoffrey and Caroline; however, they allow their feelings to develop naturally even though seeing each other is difficult. A Diamond For Christmas is an entertaining, romantic, easy-to-read treat of a romance!”

“This was an absolutely beautiful take on Romeo and Juliet! I loved how all the char seemed to mesh together so very well, though confused at times about what parent was upset about who and why. I loved how the hero was willing to do whatever it took. Our heroine was so cute, especially playing Mom and Aunt against each other. The Aunts statement of “ I am in so much trouble!” Made me laugh. Overall a lovely tale of frustration, love and a do whatever it takes to win!”
