As Queen Elizabeth's lady-in-waiting, innocent Lady Rosamund is unprepared for the temptations of Court. She is swept up in the festivities of the yuletide season and, as seduction perfumes the air, Rosamund is drawn to darkly enticing Anton Gustavson….

For in this time of desperate plots and intrigues, Anton is more than just a handsome suitor—he may have endangered the life of the woman he is learning to love….

Set at the Elizabethan court at Christmas, Rosamund falls for a handsome member of the Swedish delegation. We have the Frost Fair, skating parties, the volta, masquerades, hunting, Dudley dramatically sulking, palace intrigue and conspiracies.
I would have preferred somewhat more focus on intrigue, but the category length meant a tight focus on the smooching and our main couple. Enjoyable.
