A New York Christmas by Anne Perry

4.0

An Anne Perry Christmas novella that captures the diversity of the New World while revealing the truth about friendships, misplaced trust and misguided loyalty. If you've read any of her novellas before this will not disappoint, and is a delightful diversion into Pitt's daughter, Jemima, and his effect on her life.

Jemima is acutely aware of society's rules, perhaps especially so she can choose not to follow them, and part of her task as Phinnie's companion is to keep her friend within those rules, but what if those rules might be putting Jemima herself in a stranglehold? How can she protect herself, let alone her status? And what's more important, being ladylike or being honest?
