Another enjoyable upbeat regency by Barbara Metzger. It's what I read when I don't want any surprises. (

For me, as for many other Regency fans, the word “Metzger” is a synonym for “keeper.” The Christmas Carrolls is a good example of why we love Metzger romances. This story is filled with adorable characters, the humor is subtle but definitely Metzger-ish, and the plot is—well, like most Metzger plots, difficult to explain, but delightful to experience.

Book description

A MERRY TALE OF CHRISTMAS BELLES--AND THREE VERY WISE MEN.

If Lord Carroll had one wish, it was to see his lovely daughters--Joia, Hollice, and Meredith--happily wed. The problem was finding three suitable beaus.

However, 'twas Christmas, a time for surprises. Joia found a notorious rake coming to her rescue. Holly could not believe who was suddenly vying for her affection. And Merry won the heart of a brave but broken soldier. Not the best matches, perhaps. But if the season was truly magical, the Christmas Carrolls would indeed receive tidings of comfort and joy!
