About this listen

The Nutcracker and Edwardian-era England combine to weave a magical tale of love and friendship at Christmastime.

As the beloved stepdaughter of the Earl of Castleton, Lady Mariah Lyons cherishes her home at Plumford Manor, but her idyllic world will be threatened when the estate passes to Cyril Lightbourne, a childhood friend she hasn’t seen or heard from in years. Once, Mariah dreamed their friendship would kindle into something more, but that was before she heard Cyril was courting the cruelhearted Lady Pearl. Now Mariah is willing to welcome him as a friend and pray he will be the heir her stepfather needs, but she’ll keep her heart locked safely away from anyone with such poor taste.

Cyril Lightbourne has long avoided returning to Plumford Manor, yet he reluctantly arrives in time for Christmas. When his friendship with Lady Mariah reignites, he finds himself caught between his affection for her and her family’s misunderstanding of his attachment to Lady Pearl. Then, more trouble arrives in the form of a Danish lord on a mission to win Mariah’s hand by Christmas. Will the magic of the holiday season help lead to the discovery of true love, or will duty to country leave all longing for what could have been?

“So many delightful layers to this tale, along with intriguing characters and beautiful descriptions. … It really puts you in the mood for Christmas.”—Melody Carlson, author of The Christmas Tree Farm and A Royal Christmas

A Holiday Favorite!

Sure to be a traditional holiday favorite and reread. This delightful tale is whimsical and sweet with tender dreams and a dastardly plan in place. But the spirit of the Season soon carries the residents and guests away into a winter wonderland where love dwells.

The cover is gorgeous and instantly drew me in! And what better time to delve between these unputdownable pages than right now!?

Lose yourself in amongst these charming characters and close the cover with a beautiful smile and a heart overflow with joy.

The reason for the season

Great story. Wonderful characters. This books tells the real reason for the season. The love of a family and for the people of the town. A sister and brother needing a touch of the Lord and the love of their younger sister.

Imagining the Nutcracker

I love the whimsy mixed with different personalities. Each person has their own story as to how they react to imagination just like in our own reality. Some are tainted with grief, some by responsibility, some by the weight of society's expectations, and others simply embrace it! And I love how everyone has a happy ending, even if getting there isn't easy.
