I love
Christmas stories and I love stories that are a magical reunion between two
people who loved one another when they were young and then life and tragedy get
in the way and part them but true love and life has a way of bringing them back
together in such a beautiful way.
Emma
Carmichael had everything growing up a loving family part of the privileged she
mixed in the highest circles she was a real lady and fell in love with her best
friend’s brother and Earl no less Jack, but they were both young and eloped but
before they had a chance to let anyone know tragedy strikes and Emma is left to
make repatriation for her father’s mistakes. Her life changes dramatically she
takes on a job as a waitress and never goes back to Jack, that is until she
meets him at a party she is working at six years later that spark is still
there she has never forgotten him.
Jack
Westwood is from the upper class and appearances mean everything to his strict family
but he wants to expand his wings and move to America and start his own
business. When he falls very deeply for his sister’s friend Emma she encourages
him to follow his dreams and they marry with plans to go together but life
doesn’t turn out that way and Jack gets on with his life in The States but
never forgets his wife.
This story
has everything that a true romantic wants in a fabulous story it is a reunion
story a bit of a Cinderella story with a hero who is so loving and caring and
strong and Emma is just an amazingly strong heroine one who has the back bone
to stand up to the people she thought were her friends. I highly recommend this
fast paced romance it ticks all of the boxes for a must read.
5/5 stars for a fabulous story
