A Wish for Noel

Christmas in his castle…
After a month of imprisonment, battle-scarred Sir Benedick wants only solitude. But the knight returns home to discover that instead he has an orphaned ward, and she's preparing his castle for the holidays!
Noel has longed for Benedick in secret for years, and now the young noblewoman has just one Christmas wish: to conquer her guardian's stony heart…
A festive Medieval novella by Deborah Simmons, originally published in 1997 as part of The Knights of Christmas collection
