Jude Knight, 2026

Escape to another time and place just long enough for a lunch or coffee break with this third volume of short stories from Jude Knight. Second-chance love, young love, motherly love, unrequited love, love at first kiss, and more. · The Unseen Uncle Her marriage in name only to an elderly duke had been organised by a mysterious uncle, and had saved Persephone from being sold off by her reprobate of a father. As a young widow, will she finally meet her rescuer? · All Good Things Come A building site is no place to be living with five children, two of them babies. Mia Redepenning also faces miserable weather, Christmas without her husband, and no idea when he will be home. But the crisis that arrives on her doorstep is a ready distraction. · Making Memories When Ben found out Abigail was with child, he declared that they needed a marriage license, and rode off to Norwich. That had been months ago. Some said he had fled. Others feared he was dead. Abbie faces the censure of the village alone. · Shipboard Romances Never Last Had it not been for the shipwreck, Lady Felicity Belvoir would never have met Lieutenant Justin Weatherall. But meet they did, and they fell in love. Such an uneven match would not do, said the Earl of Hythe, Felicity's brother. Justin left, but he never forgot. · The Duke She Kissed Threatened with being thrown out to fend for herself, Lauren agrees to burgle the duke's office. Unfortunately, the duke is in it. The duke doesn't intend to be charmed by his unannounced visitor, nor does he expect that two glasses of brandy will set her on her ear. · Better Late than Never Amber Williamson rescues herself from a fortune-hunter who wouldn't take no for an answer. She has no desire to rescue herself from the gentleman who finds the cow byre in which she has taken refuge. But he might need rescuing from her. · An Angry Goose Plays Cupid It is hard for a rake to convince the spinster on whom he has set his heart that he has reformed his ways, especially when a simple misunderstanding has ensured that she will not tolerate his company. Until a pair of nesting geese drive them into a summer house and keep them there. · The Return of Unseemly Revelry The death of the husband who bullied her means the end of his reign—and the dismissal of his spies. However, it is not until months later that his widow dares to change his rules—the rules she has lived by for more than thirty years. The decision to celebrate Christmas was only the start. · The Tardy Groom Everything is ready for the wedding tomorrow, except that the groom went away for a few days and has been missing for three weeks. As Victoria sits glaring at the white gown her mother chose, there is a tap on her window. Can Edmund explain his absence? And can she believe his explanation?
