A Christmas Code by Jacki Delecki


She's loved him since she was practically a child who followed him and her brother around in hopes of garnering his attention. Now years later Lady Gwyneth Beaumont has decided she must make him notice her before it's too late. This beauty can have any man, but she has lost her heart to Viscount James Ashworth and no one else will do.

The Viscount has been in France for the past three years undercover for the crown. Ash, as James is called, intends to finish with his final case and return to life of lord of his home, but when an assignment protecting the Prince Regent and a Christmas gathering goes awry, only Lady Gwyneth's presence with his will help. Ash has been trying to resist Gwyneth for years. Being his best friend's sister doesn't help the situation and James in no way wants Gwyneth in any sort of danger. Gwyneth is a force to be reckoned with and when she discovers a secret, she could potentially be in a great deal of danger.

Ash doing his job is paramount, but it protecting Gwyneth becomes more than a job and when sparks begin to fly between the two, things become very interesting.

A Christmas Code by Jacki Delecki is a novella that really packs a punch. This is the first story I have read by Ms. Delecki and I have to say that I truly enjoyed it. Both Gwyneth and Ash and interesting and engaging and their romance is a draw. The backdrop of the Christmas season along with the espionage is a great twist. I am looking forward to reading more from this talented author in the future.

Jacki’s love affair with the arts began at a young age and inspired her to train as a jazz singer and dancer. She has performed many acting roles with Seattle Opera Company and Pacific Northwest Ballet.

Jacki has set her Grayce Walters Mystery Series in Seattle, her long-time home. The city’s unique and colorful locations are a backdrop for her romantic mystery. Although writing now fills much of her day, she continues to volunteer for Seattle’s Ballet and Opera Companies and leads children’s tours of Pike Street Market. Her volunteer work with Seattle’s homeless shelters influenced one of her main characters in An Inner Fire and Women Under Fire. Jacki’s two Golden Labs, Gus and Talley, were her constant companions. Their years of devotion and intuition inspired her to write both dogs as heroes in each series. A geek at heart, Jacki loves superhero movies--a hero’s battle against insurmountable odds. But her heroines don’t have to wear a unitard to fight injustice and battle for the underdog.

 Book Blurb: Lady Gwyneth Beaumont has long awaited the opportunity to show Viscount James Ashworth that she is no longer the impetuous child who dogged his footsteps. Now a much sought-after debutante, she is determined to prove to the hard-headed rake that she is a grown woman and a worthy participant in both the spy game and the game of love. Ash, recently returned from three years undercover in France in His Majesty’s service, wants nothing more than to complete his final mission and retire to his bucolic country estate. However, what seemed a simple assignment to protect the Prince Regent at a Christmas party turns into a maze of intrigue, desire, and treachery. Adding to the perilous secret operation is one problem Ash never anticipated: The appearance of the reckless, enticing Gwyneth, who has blossomed into a gorgeous woman and self-appointed spy. When a snooping Gwyneth uncovers a shocking secret, she puts herself in mortal danger. Can Ash protect Gwyneth and the Prince from French assailants and, at the same time, win the passionate lady's heart? Can Ash and Gwyneth both triumph as winners in the game of spies and love?
