Elisa Braden

A botched abduction, a little seduction. Some mistakes are worth repeating. In Elisa Braden's enchanting Midnight in Scotland series, the unlikeliest matches generate the greatest heat. And this steamy winter novella about a desperate Scottish widow and the Englishman she takes captive might be the hottest one of all. A duke, an abduction. What could go wrong? Young widow Lucie Carmichael has made too many mistakes in her life—choosing the wrong husband, trusting the wrong solicitor, wearing the wrong shade of red to a funeral. But this time is different. This time, she has a plan. The Duke of Dingwall is about to evict her family from their ancestral home, and she means to change his mind, even if it involves a little abduction. A night in Scotland, a woman in red. What’s a man to do? Silas Northfield is not the Duke of Dingwall, no matter how many times a mad Scottish beauty in a tight red dress insists he is. When she abducts him from a meeting with his half-brothers, Silas decides to take matters—and the luscious Lucie Carmichael—into his own hands. But teaching Lucie to unleash her stunning sensuality might be his greatest mistake. Because she’s sworn never to remarry, and he’ll need more than a night to satisfy his hunger for this heartbreaking woman. He’ll need a lifetime. **This story was first published as part of the Duke in a Box Holiday Collection released in November 2022** This is a SHORT NOVELLA of approximately 17,000 words. It can be read in one sitting as a standalone story with a satisfying happily-ever-after. In the sequence of the Midnight in Scotland series, it can be placed between books 3 and 4.
