She’s my best friend.
She’s curvy and beautiful.
She’s an amazing journalist living in Manhattan.
And I’m completely in love with her. But I can’t tell her.
Phoebe Garrison is the sweetest temptation I’ve known since junior high, but she struggles with her self-worth due to her upbringing.
I may be a pro hockey defenseman, standing at 6’7 with a bad attitude on and off the ice, but I can’t tell her how I feel about her. I’ve suffered in silence since high school rather than risking our friendship.
But when I convince her to come for a quick trip to my place for the holidays, it might be the chance we’ve both been waiting for. She doesn’t notice the way I look at her, that my eyes are only for her. But she will.
She’s brave in all things work—taking it on herself to find answers to a string of supposed suicides hitting the newspapers—and yet, she darts away every time I step forward to offer more.
Until she comes back for a second visit. We’ve flirted by text. I’ve made an offer. After fifteen years of waiting, I’m about done.
Christmas is coming. And I know exactly what I want.
