About this ebook

From the author of The Billionaire’s Secrets, Midnight in Venice and Falling for Rain, a heartfelt, witty and heartwarming short story for the holiday season, set in one of Europe's most enchanting cities...

Inspired by the beauty depicted in the movie In Bruges, Paula decides to spend Christmas by herself in the gorgeous Belgian canal city. One evening at a cozy bistro, she is very pleasantly surprised to meet her old college boyfriend and very first love, James. As they walk through the snowy streets, they laugh at their younger selves and ponder the unexpected course their lives have taken over the past nine years. Paula, a promising actress, became a teacher, while James abandoned medical school to serve as a medic in Afghanistan. But as Christmas Day approaches, James's painful war memories threaten their rekindled love.

Ratings and reviews

This was a beautifully written love story about Paula and James accidentally finding each other again in Bruges at christmas after being apart for nine years. The story tugged at my heart and was quite sad at times, but everything worked out for a happy ending. It was full of laughs and tears and makes for an enjoyable read on a lazy day. I will definitely be reading more by this author.

A love story with a very important message. Well done. Worth your time.
