Mary Cavendish’s corset is already too tight. All the lovely Christmas food is tempting her, and that’s bad news for her dream of attracting a “knight on a white charger” — not that volunteering at the parish hospital is how she expects to meet him. Enter a mysterious Christmas Eve patient, who is none other than the famous Shakespearean actor Sir Wesley Samuel Darcy. Mary finds him arrogant, too forward… and maddeningly handsome. When Mary learns Sir Wesley has been invited to spend Christmas with her family at Rougemont, she vows to resist the charming London rogue. Wesley thinks finding the perfect present for Miss Cavendish will tempt her — she’s not as prim as she pretends to be. Mary turned down six proposals last Season, and she’s not about to give in to a rake. But if Mary can’t resist the sugarplums, how can she resist the dashing Sir Wesley?

Summary
Overall Mary’s Christmas Knight is my first book by Moriah Densley. Admittedly I chose the book based on the cover. Mary’s Christmas Knight is a charming Christmas novella. It read well as a stand alone however it visits characters from Moriah’s other books. Mary is a nurse and working on Christmas eve. She is a relatable
character as she fights off her desire for chocolate and holiday sugar plums. Her elderly male patients made for some entertainment a Mary nurses the new arrivals.
One of the new arrivals is Sir Wesley Darcy, a famous actor and rogue. Mary is left to sew him up on her own. Their exchange is comical and rife with tension. Mary is not
pleased when she finds out he is invited to her family’s home for the holiday. Wesley is handsome and charming but what wins you over is that he sees Mary as others do not. Very charming and enchanting story. I will be reading more books by Moriah.
Violence She is a nurse and there are sick people. One of them dies. Nothing I would consider violent.
Language
Sexual Great chemistry between the characters. Considered a clean romance.
