A Regency Christmas Eve
Signet Regencies, back in their heyday, were popular little books. And the biggest sellers were always the Christmas anthologies they brought out every year.
I was invited to contribute a novella for the 2000 collection, A Regency Christmas Eve. I already had a book coming out that Christmas season -- my RITA-nominated Once Upon A Christmas -- so I wrote my story, Reckless Miss Ripley, very quickly.
Reckless Miss Ripley takes a young woman in a hurry and a thoroughly nice young man, and throws them into each other's company on the road from London to Bath on Christmas Eve. It was well-received at the time, but I plan to tidy it up a bit and re-release it on its own this year. So please look for it, along about November! I'm going to re-christen it Dashing Through the Snow. Because, of course, that's what the characters end up doing.
Note: The e-book version of Dashing Through the Snow is out, and available here!
