I posted this about 3 weeks ago and have gotten good ideas but I am remebering more of the story so I am going to include a more detailed outline of the romance I remember in this story:
I am looking for a christmas romance novel, I read it a year ago and wrote down the title and lost it. It would be considered a historical romance novel. There are two romance stories going on during the same book but the one I remember most is a woman who considers herself a spinster and who was born with a crippled leg that stops her from doing some activities and hurts her occasionally throughout the book, is seduced and falls in love with a rich man without a title. In the end the Rich man has to ask the spinsters brother for her hand in marriage because he falls in love with her. Throughout the book the spinster kind of transforms from this dowdy woman who made her maid always pull her hair back into an unattractive bun wear ugly dresses into a beauty because she starts letting her maid do her hair and pick out pretty dresses. There is also a ballroom scene where the untitled man takes the crippled spinster and puts her feet on his and dances with her. I remember one scene specifically where in the middle of a room the untitled man kisses the crippled spinster on a couch and her mom thinks she sees it happen but knows it is not possible because she knows no one would be interested in her daughter. I am almost positive it has the word christmas in the title of the novel. I loved this book and would trully like to be able to find it again. Sorry for the lack of character names. Thanks for any help I really appreciate it!
What else I remember is that the spinster is the sister of the titled gentleman. I think her name might be Charlotte or Elizabeth but that is just a guess. The wealthy untitled gentleman is staying in her brothers house for a week or so during the Christmas season I think to get him to enter into a business deal. The untitled gentleman is traveling with I think his sister or ward who I think falls in love with the owner of the house they are staying in.
I have received a lot of idea but none of them quite fit. It was a library book and could be a little older. I am almost positive the word Christmas is in the title. It was definitely a full length book not a short story. It also did not seem to be a book out of a series but it could have been. Thanks again for all your help!
