HAPPY RELEASE DAY!

The Christmas Pact, my most recent Christmas novella, releases today! Go grab your copy here!

You may recall that The Christmas Pact is an expansion of a flash fiction piece I wrote about thirteen years ago called The Kissing Tree in my anthology All Wrapped Up. It’s two scenes, first two children making a marriage pact in the snowy woods the day after Christmas, the second scene is years later as the same couple returns to the snowy woods. The Christmas Pact also gives you all the really good stuff in-between! Here’s the blurb:

When Henrietta Price accidentally pummels a gentleman with a snowball, her instant mortification turns to delight when she discovers the young man is none other than her childhood best friend, Charlie. Though they haven’t seen each other in ten years, he still has the same vivid blue eyes, wicked laugh, and caring nature she remembers so well. Once he’d even vowed—at ten-years-old—to marry her, if necessary, to save her from a life of spinsterhood. And although she’s considering another man’s proposal, she can’t quite keep that long-ago promise out of her head…

Charlie Newkirk hasn’t stopped thinking about Hen since she stole a kiss from him all those years ago.  Now he can scarcely believe the beautiful woman in front of him is the same girl whose braid he used to pull. Worse, he has no idea if she’s given her heart to the wealthy young marquess courting her or if she even remembers the promise he hopes to fulfill.

With their future happiness at stake, will Charlie be able to remind Henrietta of their Christmas pact and turn their childhood friendship into a newfound romance? Or will he forever remain just someone she used to know?

To celebrate this festive occasion, I’m giving away five (5) e-copies of The Christmas Pact to random commenters on this blog post. The winners will be selected Sunday night and announced on this blog on Monday, November 25.

The Christmas Pact is now available on Amazon for just .99! Celebrate its release by grabbing your e-copy today!
