Rating:  - Except for Balogh, I didn't like it
This anothology consists of three stories:
A Handful of Gold -Mary Balogh
Julian Dare, an heir to an earldom, offers dancer Blanche Heyward (aka Verty Ewing) money to accompany him to his friends hunting lodge over the holidays and become his mistress. Desperate, Verty accepts his offer knowing that she will become ruined. She has no choice. She is the daughter of a deceased Reverend Ewing, who left his family penniless. Verty is the sole means of support for her mother and sister. ... Read More
Rating:  - EXCELLENT!!! At least an "8*** Star" Book
Mary Balogh does it again. But then I shouldn't be surprised as she is one of my favorite authors.
Julia Justiss is also one of my favorites as I have all of her books and have read all of them, most of which are on my Keeper Shelf.

Rating: - three fun Regency romantic novellas
"Handful of Gold" by Mary Balogh. The handsome and wealthy heir to an earldom, Lord Julian Dare, seems to have everything; so what do you get the man you love for Christmas who seems to need nothing Verity Ewing asks herself. You give your heart to him though the risk is that he will return it broken.
"The Three Gifts" by Julia Justiss. Near death from war related injuries, Viscount Miles Hampden needs a spouse to provide him an heir; that is if he recovers enough to perform. Edwina Denby ... Read More
