Miss Lydia Charingford is always cheerful, and never more so than at Christmas time. But no matter how hard she smiles, she can't forget the youthful mistake that could have ruined her reputation.
Even though the worst of her indiscretion was kept secret, one other person knows the truth of those dark days: the sarcastic Doctor Jonas Grantham. She wants nothing to do with him...or the butterflies that take flight in her stomach every time he looks her way.
Jonas Grantham has a secret, too: He's been in love with Lydia for more than a year. This winter, he's determined to conquer her dislike and win her for his own. It all starts with a wager and a kiss...
A Kiss for Midwinter is a novella (38,000 words) in the Brothers Sinister series. It follows The Duchess War. Each book stands on its own, but those who prefer to read in order might want to read that book first.

Okay, coming back after a few days to review this a little more in depth - the backstory/connection between these two characters is nothing I've seen in any other romance and was handled really well, I think. I learned a lot about medicine in this era, which was, unsurprisingly, misogynist and terrible. I hadn't reread any of the Brothers Sinister series in quite a while, so while I recognized the references to previous characters/events, they didn't really have a lot of meaning to me at this point. Which is a long way of saying I think you could read this without reading [b:The Duchess War 13489919 The Duchess War (Brothers Sinister, #1) Courtney Milan https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1363009176l/13489919.SY75.jpg 19028791], but you should read The Duchess War anyway, it's so good. This is quick and sweet and oddly educational, and I recommend it.(2020 summer romance bingo: health care professional, probably wouldn't have worked for anything else besides HEA.)
