McCabe’s short fiction covers much of the same ground as her full-length novels but in a condensed format. The Maid’s Lover, To Bed a Libertine, and Girl in the Beaded Mask are Regency-set novellas, while A Very Tudor Christmas takes the shorter format to the Tudor court.

Published between 2009 and 2018, these novellas were originally released as digital-first titles, many through Harlequin’s Historical Undone line. They work well as introductions to McCabe’s writing style for readers who want a quick sample before committing to a longer series.
