Christmas Without You Kindle Edition by Celeste Granger

 Book Excerpt:

"“He promised me snowflakes.

He promised me forever.
I want everything he promised.”

Wren Murphy, prodigy, and vice-principal are on cloud nine after her three-year boyfriend, Phillip Anderson, proposed her. Being married to the love of her life is Wren’s dream, and it’s finally coming to fruition. She’s excited about their upcoming holiday vacation to the Swiss Alps. Phillip, a commercial airline pilot, maintains a hectic schedule, but he promised Wren the Alps. He promised uninterrupted time together to kindle their loving relationship.

But Phillip can’t keep his promise, again, a reminder of all the other promises he’s failed to keep. That disappointment causes Wren to go home for the holidays instead. To her surprise, her best friend, Torrence Edison, makes the same decision. Their reunion is a pleasant distraction. Emerging desire threatens to cross the friendship line when Torrence’s suppressed desire rises to the surface. His impassioned yearnings for Wren are hard to contain; yet, Torrence doesn’t want to push her to a place she’s not willing to go.

Wren is surprised by her own eager response to the man that has always been there for her. She has a decision to make; hold on to the promise of forever or risk it all with someone who’s kept every promise he’s ever made."

This is standalone with an HFN/HEA.

Review:

"Christmas Without You" by Celeste Granger

My Speculation:  

"Christmas Without You" was a quick sweet love story that will have you saying, way to go, Wren!  It is so true that a person can take so many broken promises, and it was good to see that Wren had finally taken all she could take from her fiance, Phillip.  Now, where all of the good parts come from, this story is Wren's best friend Torrence that comes into the story.  However, even though they were friends, was there a spark between these two developing?  This is where I say you will have to pick up this good Christmas read to see how well this author brings out this good read to the reader.  So, be ready to sit back with a good beverage and enjoy the ride.
