The Winter Ball

Electronic book text

A sweeping story of love and war from the bestselling author of the Buckingham hotel series

London, 1942.

Three days leading up to the ball, the war is still raging, skies still splitting with bombs, and now that the Americans have gotten involved, the Buckingham Hotel and generous families have welcomed American soldiers for Christmas as part of a new home-away-from-home scheme.

Even so, Raymond de Guise is busy leading the troupe in final preparations for the ball. There's a lot to do, and Raymond knows it's a race against time. But as the Americans arrive at the Buckingham Hotel, he's once again unexpectedly pulled into the tumultuous schemes that lay under the glimmering dance floor of high society. And this time, the threat looms far closer to home, far closer to Raymond's heart. Will he be able to protect his home and his country? Or will this be the time he finally loses what he loves the most...?
