title: A Christmas Conundrum
author: Hall, Karen
description: Victorian widower and barrister Daniel Hollingsworth considers re-entering not only politics but the marriage game as well. In his fifties, it’s the best time of life for a man, and the attentions of a politician's lovely widow are tempting. But journalist, suffragist and widow Tabitha Goforth keeps turning his life upside down as she drags him into all kinds of crazy causes. Hardly a suitable wife for an MP. So why is his heart wondering if "that woman" might be the best running mate of all? Widow Tabitha Goforth supports many causes. With her own newspaper, why stay silent? And it's such fun to goad barrister Daniel Hollingsworth-if only because he sent her to jail. But when he helps one of her daughter’s pupils out of trouble, she finds herself drawn to the handsome widower. After swearing she was done with love, feelings are stirred in Tabitha. Will she ring in the New Year alone or has the barrister's kiss proven to be the headiest of Christmas cups--the chance to love and be loved again.
