Christmas Cinderella

Christmas is supposed to be a season of hope and joy. Instead, it might cost Sally Destry the only man she has ever loved.

Sally has loved Peter Sinclair for years. But now Peter has unexpectedly inherited an earldom, and become one of the most sought-after gentlemen in the county. When Sally returns home for Christmas, she finds her family's fortunes in ruins and her ambitious mother determined to marry Peter to Julia, Sally's beautiful older sister.

Overshadowed and dismissed as an awkward schoolgirl, Sally secretly commissions the gown of her dreams, hoping it might finally help Peter see her differently. But when disaster destroys her plans, she fears she has lost her only chance.

As Christmas festivities and a glittering winter ball bring old and new friends together, love, ambition, and family loyalties collide. Can they look beyond appearances, family expectations, and fortune to discover where true happiness—and true love—really lie?
