Dear Sir,... I feel I should let you know that your mother is very ill. If you wish to see her before it is too later, you should come simultaneously. Sincerely, Mrs. Camilla Stuart Pierce Waverly, the Earl of Devonmont, has led an unabashed rogue's life, letting no girl near his heart. Inexplicably discontinued as a child to be lifted by distant relatives, he never forgave his parents, refusing to learn any of his mother's letters after his father's fatality. Then came up a letter that shook his fix. A Christmas stop by at Montcliff might confirm his previous chance to discover the truth of his recent, and come to terms with the stranger he calls "Mother". But two surprises await him at Montcliff. His mother is flawlessly healthy, nowhere near a deathbed, as her meddling lady's associate led him to trust. The second is Camilla Stuart herself, a energetic vicar's widow, too bright and beautiful never to arouse the scoundrel in Pierce. Though she by themselves is reason enough to extend his stay, he is soon faced with other tantalizing riddles: What secrets lie in his mother's recent to explain his years as a child abandonment? How come the captivating Mrs. Stuart so decided to fix the breach between mother and son? In the mean time, Camilla herself is swept up in love's problems since the introduction of the amazing earl. As his daring flirtation and suggestive whispers pull her dangerously close, can anything protect her susceptible heart? If they are destined to share real happiness, there should be honesty between them - yet sharing with him the truth about her own life may shatter that chance. None of them can predict the startling revelations to come. Or the secrets, both heartening and shocking, divulged between a mother and boy, and between two fans haunted by their respective pasts, that can make Christmas nights at Montcliff someone to bear in mind - and the glorious nights after, someone to treasure for life.
