I loved this story.  Max and Eleanor met years ago when Max accepted a bet to be the first of his group to woo Eleanor at a local assembly.  Of course, the wooing went beyond a chaste kiss, and Eleanor lost her virginity.  When she find out about the wager, she kicked Max to the curb and decided her life would be spent as a financially comfortable spinster.  Max was heartbroken at Eleanor's break and never got over her.While reading this tale, I was reminded of why I love romance.  No matter how long or how far the characters have been separated from each other, love still finds a way to bring them together.  I am particularly partial to stories where the resolution comes to the hero and heroine while stuck at a roadside inn!!I always read anything Miranda Neville writes.  She is one of my all-time favorite authors.  My only complaint is that the story is short, but it nicely sets up the real story of Eleanor's young relative, Caroline Brotherton.  The Second Seduction of a Lady is perfect for the upcoming holiday season.  Sometimes you can't devote the time to a full length novel, but you can spend an hour or two with a divine story that will get you in a romantic mood for the holidays.  This story delivers that and more.
