Once Upon A Dream

by Mary Balogh & Grace Burrowes

This is a two story book. The first story is

Another Dream by Mary Balogh.

Eleanors sister, Christine is married to the

Duke of Bewcastle. Christine is throwing a party

to celebrate his 40th birthday. So Eleanor is coming.

After all, Wulfric has always been kind and generous

with her. On the trip, a storm stops all travel.
Eleanor meets a young girl also waiting out the

storm at the inn. Georgette is the daughter of the

Earl of Staunton, Michael Benning.
Sometimes, being caught in a storm can

change a whole life. And Georgette is certain

she knows just how the lives should be changing.

Georgette, her brothers hand still clasped in

her own, paused at the top of the stairs before

proceeding to the room where their

nurse would be awaiting them. "Well?" she

asked him in an urgent whisper. "What did

you think?"

"You really believe she is the one,

Georgie?" he asked.

"Oh, I do, she said with passionate

conviction. "I really, really do, Robbie. Did you

notice her eyes? They seem to smile all the time."

The second story in this book is

The Duke of my Dreams by Grace Burrowes

Anne Faraday is wealthy but not titled.
Elias is the Duke of Sedgemere.
Elias has a nursery full of sons. He feels they

are in need of a mother. But he cant quite

admit that he is in need of a wife.

"I don't know her well, but I like her very much," 

Sedgemere said. "She hates me, you see. Has no marital

aspirations in my direction whatsoever. For that alone,

she enjoys my most sincere esteem." 

Fate brings them together enough that

Elias can only accept that Anne is the woman

for him. Especially when he sees how she is

with the boys.

 

This book is written by two  

amazing romance writers. And even though

the tales are rather short, there is a lot of story

in them. They are full of romance and fun.

It's not often that you get to catch up with

old family friends or hear about a duck orgy.

I am a fan of both authors and highly

recommend this book.

I bought this ebook from Amazon.
