Praise for Marguerite Kaye’s A Scandalous Winter Wedding

“The book opens up like a succession of Russian dolls, revealing more and more about the protagonists in all guises. And this is Kaye’s strength as a writer: setting up a plot and characters shrouded in mystery, and then revealing them with increasing complexity as the story moves on . . . A book not to be missed.” —All About Romance

“Wonderful . . . Ms. Kaye has fast become one of my favorite authors of historical fiction.” —Romance Junkies
