I have a new book out!
Lord Grantwell’s Christmas Wish is available at online bookstores now!
I had a lot of fun writing this one, especially in adding Yorkshire Christmas traditions and researching toys of the time period.
See my Pinterest Board for some of what I came up with.
Here’s the back cover blurb:
He wished to never see her again
Now he wishes she’ll stay…
Lord Grantwell hasn’t seen Lillian Pearson since she betrayed him years ago. So when she arrives on his doorstep looking for sanctuary, he’s not inclined to offer it! But when the two orphaned children in his care ask if she can stay for Christmas, how can he refuse? Grant and Lillian discover an intense attraction still simmers between them, and Grant starts to wonder if he has done her a grave injustice…
Here’s what the reviewers had to say:
Gaston fills the second sterling addition to her Captains of Waterloo series with holiday warmth and cheer before wrapping it up with her usual insightful characterization, empathetic storytelling, and perfect period details. John Charles, Booklist
Five Stars! Diane Gaston has creatively intertwined this time in history with joyful holiday festivities, and the resulting storyline is constantly filled with anticipation for one event while being guarded because of uncertainty about other circumstances….A number of enchantingly delightful Christmas traditions of the Regency era are scattered throughout the story….This couple come across as very believable, as reactions are sincere while their inner feelings are so heartfelt, thus causing me to truly like them and hope they would finally have a sense of belonging. The second book in the Captains of Waterloo series is engaging at all times. Amelia, Alwaysreviewing.com
In her Regency romance featuring two estranged lovers, Gaston adds a dash of Christmas spice to a heartwarming story about the meaning of home and family…. Readers get to experience the joy of Regency-era Christmas traditions and children’s pastimes as Lillian and Grant try to give William and Anna a happy holiday, falling in love in the process. Sarah Johnson, Historical Novel Society
You can order Lord Grantwell’s Christmas Wish from Amazon or your favorite online bookstore.
I would love to experience a toy store from that era. Toys were more important then-as both education and entertainment for children.
Congrats, Diane! This sounds like a lovely story –can’t wait to read it!! I’m definitely starting to get in the “Christmas Romance” mood.
