His Mistletoe Bride by Kelly, Vanessa. mass_market edition. ISBN: 9781420114843.

Blame It On The Mistletoe-- When Major Lucas Stanton inherited his earldom, he never dreamed his property would include the previous earls granddaughter. Phoebe Linville is a sparkling American beauty, yes, but with a talent for getting into trouble. Witness the compromising position that forced them into wedlock. Whisked away to Mistletoe Manor, his country estate, it isnt long before she is challenging his rules--and surprising him in and out of bed-- Phoebe has no intention of bowing to Lucass stubbornness even though he offers all that she wants. His kisses and unexpected warmth are enticing, but Phoebe is determined to show the earl of Merritt what real love is all about. And if that takes twelve nights of delicious seduction by a roaring fire, shes more than willing to reveal her gifts very slowly-- "The perfect holiday treat!" --Kieran Kramer "A lovely, heartwarming story about romantic love, familial love, and love of ones fellow human beings; its a story about forgiving and growing and opening ones heart. Its the best kind of Christmas romance." --Just Janga Praise for Vanessa Kelly and My Favorite Countess "In her latest sublimely sensual Regency historical, Kelly delivers wit, a tightly knit plot, a refreshingly different hero, and a realistically complicated heroine, who could give Scarlett OHara a good run for her money." --Booklist (starred review)
