Only December

'Twas the first day of December when a man lived all alone.

A philosopher who'd inherited a fortune, he shut himself away in a mansion by a lake and buried himself in books, ideas, and poetry. His heart had been broken long ago, but retreating from the world kept him safe.

Then into his regimented isolation she broke with laughter, excitement, and a bright hope he'd forgotten. Her duty for the month was to manage his house, but she managed to wake him up instead.

But only December was allowed lest his heart be broken again.

Only December is a standalone holiday romance novella with an 50+ old-fashioned, academic MMC, a 30+ specialty freelance housekeeper FMC, and an only-this-month relationship that doesn't remain no-strings for long.
