About this ebook
Tom Kent and Emily Times have a history that never truly disappeared. Once, their future together seemed so certain that “married by Christmas” was more than a hopeful phrase—it was a dream they shared. But time, distance, and life’s complications kept them apart, leaving years of unanswered questions between them.
Now, fate brings them together again during the holiday season. When Tom agrees to accompany Emily to a wedding, their familiar teasing and effortless connection return as if the years between them have barely happened. Yet beneath the laughter lies the truth neither can ignore: their feelings may never have gone away. As old memories awaken and unexpected danger threatens Emily, Tom discovers just how much he still wants to protect her—and how terrified he is of losing her again.
With Christmas Eve drawing near, they must confront the past and decide whether their love deserves another chance. Can two people who once let each other go finally choose forever? For Tom and Emily, the road to happily ever after may begin with the promise they never forgot.
