Winter Solstice in the Crystal Castle by Jennifer Ivy Walker
Gabrielle is a flame haired, fire hearted French princess who dreams of becoming a Valkyrie warrior queen like her Viking ancestors from Normandy. Sent to Paris to learn the proper etiquette for a future French queen, she is called home to le Château de Beaufort for a forced marriage to a man she loathes when her father the king’s precarious health takes a sudden turn for the worse.
Chivalrous, solitary knight Sir Bastien de Landuc suffers an impossible love for Gabrielle, the unattainable princess he can never have. Without a title of nobility, he is ineligible to compete in the tournament for her hand in marriage, despite his unparalleled equestrian skills and inimitable swordsmanship.
Yet, Yuletide wishes for a wondrous winter solstice in the glorious Crystal Castle might make impossible dreams come true.
Can the valiant knight win the coveted hand of his Viking Valkyrie?

The Christmas Husband Hunt by Kate Moore
At Christmas in London, a spirited governess joins a gentleman spy on a daring mission: finding a mate for a jilted debutante. Through her role as an unpaid caretaker—of both children and dogs—Harriet Swanley is avoiding a forced marriage. But hers is not the only secret under wraps: Lord Charles Davenham is working covertly to unmask a Russian agent—until the younger sister he’s always protected comes to him, recently rejected and clutching The Husband Hunter’s Guide to London. If Harriet can help Charles find a love match for his sibling, before a dangerous spy closes in on them, perhaps, in this season of good tidings, a long-buried attraction can set their own hearts aflame.
