Yuletide Bride (Mills & Boon Vintage 90s Modern) (Harlequin Presents)

They were once lovers until he left eight years ago. She married and her daughter was born six months later. She is now a widow and takes care of her mother and daughter. The house she inherited from her husband. Now he is back and causing upheaval in her town. Things go wrong when he finds out he has a child. Lies and deception happened years ago. We're they both victims? What will he do now that he knows? Will either accept and love?

This is a bit convoluted secret baby story.Amber is the least likeable character and Max is a close second.The copyright says 1994, but possibly its is written much earlier. Conversational tone is stiff and very English. Almost a period drama.The high strung 'screeching' by Amber really puts you off.Avoidable.
