<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Willig's beloved Pink Carnation series gets into the holiday spirit with this irresistible Regency Christmas caper. Arabella Dempsey accepts a position at a quiet girls' school in Bath, but she hardly imagines coming face to face with French aristocrats and international spies.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Despite her dear friend Jane Austen's warning against teaching, Arabella Dempsey accepts a position at a girls' school in Bath, just before Christmas. She hardly imagines coming face-to-face with French aristocrats and international spies.<p>Reginald "Turnip" Fitzhugh-often mistaken for the elusive spy known as the Pink Carnation-has blundered into danger before. When Turnip and Arabella find their Christmas pudding yielding a cryptic message, they are launched on a Yuletide adventure. Will they find poinsettias-or peril?</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"In this seventh installment in the Regency romantic suspense series, Willig ("The Betrayal of the Blood Lily", 2010, etc.) refreshes her formula for a lighthearted and sweet holiday romance. In this holiday-themed volume, Willig smartly recharges the series by stepping back in time-the action of this installment takes place between the fourth and fifth books of the series. A shift of focus away from espionage and toward Jane Austen makes for a fun, fresh installment in a successful series." <BR> -"Kirkus" <BR><BR> "Set between the fourth and fifth novels in her charming Pink Carnation series, Willig offers up a holiday tale centered around Turnip Fitzhugh, the bumbling but well-meaning nobleman who is often mistaken for the English spy known as the Pink Carnation. Forget all the Austen updates and clones-Willig is writing the best Regency-era fiction today. This delectable, exciting holiday tale will appeal to longtime fans of the series and newcomers alike." <BR> -"Booklist"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Lauren Willig is a law student and Ph.D. candidate in history at Harvard University. She is the author of <b>The Secret History of the Pink Carnation</b>.<p> </p>
