  This historical MM box set contains all three 17th century novellas in the best-selling Lucky John series by Ellie Thomas. Owen, a cynical former Royalist soldier and currently a messenger for the Crown, meets sweet-natured John, a luckless tavern boy. Their love affair leads to further adventures, together with meeting and befriending Cuthbert, a cheeky page at the Palace of Whitehall, until, in turn, he finds love with sober gentleman, Lemuel.
  Contains the stories:
  Lucky John: In the spring of 1660, Royalist envoy Owen Montgomery has few expectations beyond staying alive and getting paid for fulfilling his mission. But by chance, he meets a lad at a roadside inn, jeeringly nicknamed Lucky John, and Owen's life alters out of recognition. Will Owen's luck change for good? And can John convince Owen that he's worthy of love?
  Lucky in Love: In 1661, Owen Montgomery is summoned to London by his courtier brother, Lewis. Owen attempts to travel alone, reluctant to expose his faithful companion and servant John to the debauchery of the royal court. The pair navigates the mores and inhabitants of Whitehall Palace while Owen protectively watches over John. But in keeping him so close, is Owen stifling the man he loves?
  A Yuletide Excursion: When Cuthbert, a lively page at the Palace of Whitehall, accompanies his master Sir Lewis from London to Monmouthshire for Christmas in 1661, he doesn't expect to be attracted to Lemuel, his master's stern brother-in-law. Might their animosity disguise a mutual attraction? And could that lead to lasting love?

  It's the year 2098, and Terra, slightly different from Earth, has become a united planet. Air Force Lieutenant Tinker "Andy" Anderson has been recruited to the Space Force. He'll be one of an elite crew heading to Venus to rescue a previous disastrous exploration mission headed by Colonel Edward Pettigrew. The government wants Pettigrew, the sole survivor, brought back to Terra and court martialed.
  The mission is harrowing, but it's successfully completed, with Andy and Pettigrew developing feelings for each other on the hazardous return journey. However, while there's more to deal with back on Terra, Andy is told the court martial has been postponed and is given leave. What no one realizes is Andy has a second sense, and when it starts alerting him something is seriously wrong, he returns to Base. Sure enough, Pettigrew's court martial has never been delayed and is scheduled to begin the next day. Andy has some cards up his sleeve, though, and the phantom agency behind the entire disaster is foiled.
  Andy and the man he calls Best continue their military careers, but with the holidays fast approaching, will the one thing Andy wants most -- to be home for Christmas with his family and the man he loves -- be what he gets?

  At the age of twenty-three, Joseph Paul has come a long way from an abandoned foundling to the dizzy heights of a position as a second footman in London's Bedford Square. But Joseph doesn't want to remain in service forever and harbours ambitions to be his own master.
  Eli Turner might have become a valet by his thirties, but he is weary of his profession and lacks direction. He can't even summon the energy to seek out a new position in a more prestigious household. 
  Under ordinary circumstances, working as servants for the same family, these two men might not have the chance to exchange more than a few words, let alone confide their feelings. But when they both remain in the virtually deserted townhouse over Christmas, they take the opportunity to talk as equals and explore their mutual attraction. 
  Is this just a short-lived holiday fling? Or might it be the start of a long-standing romance?
