Inhaltsangabe

She's fighting for her cause... After the men left to fight Napoleon, Meredith Smith joined the Luddite cause to protest millowners' inhumane treatment of textile workers. Parliament recently made the protests not only illegal but a capital offense, so she must hide her work. She never expected her brother's commanding officer to appear at her home for Christmas. Especially when she's planning the biggest Luddite uprising of the season. He wants peace. Lord Noel Frost returned from war, aching for rest. But when he receives a letter from his best friend and fellow former officer about unrest in Yorkshire, he travels to see if he can help---and finally meet his best friend's sister, who despite being a stranger, wrote him letters that brought him hope while healing from his wounds. Noel falls in love with passionate, kind, working-class Meredith. And despite Meredith's focus for the cause---and not being arrested---she is wooed by his loyalty to her brother, desire to protect her, and support for reform despite stark class differences. Duty to their families and desire for one another clash as the tension between the two heats. When a Luddite protest goes too far, resulting in fire and death, will they find a way to stand together? A Christmas novella about what happens when your brother's best friend discovers you're not just a widow but part of an illegal conspiracy fighting the aristocracy.
