Review:





Gaming Hell Christmas consists of two novellas, interconnected in a way because the heroines are friends but they have their own satisfying end.

I only knew one of the two authors who signed this book, I've already read and appreciated Amanda McCabe work in the past, while Kathy L. Wheeler was a great surprise.

A Gift for the Duke's Illegitimate Daughter by Kathy L Wheeler:

Alexandra, the oldest daughter of the Duke of Winsome’s, wants to go to live by herself but her father doesn't let her. During a masquerade ball a charming man swept her away, making her live the most incredible and exciting night of her life that ended with a bet.
At the start of the story I sadly saw Alex and Theo like pawns in the hand of their families, and I adored when they finally break free and they begin to consider their own feelings and to make their own choices.

The Merry Widow's Christmas Adventure by Amanda McCabe:

Lady Ranstruther feels trapped even now that she is a widow, because her step son wants to deem her freedom, doesn't leaving her alone and trying to ruin her rapprochement with an old flame. Fortunately she isn't easily intimitaded and the Christmas time with all the festivities and balls will be a good distraction.
I cheered for Belle since the first chapter, she hasn't had a very happy life and now she really deserves some joyful times with her friends and Will. Belle and Will are perfect for each other, I've enjoyed to see them shyly approaching each other at the beginning and then to grow fond of each other becoming more and more daring.

I recommend to read this book because I loved the leading Ladies, they are funny and indipendent. 
I really hope that there will be other stories set at the La Sous Rose.
