An Aspen Creek Christmas, Book 1
Aspen Creek, Pennsylvania
Emma Dawson has been dating Gabe Huskman for the past year. He’s a pastor at their church. He had proposed to his previous girlfriend on Christmas Eve, only to be rejected. Despite their nearly platonic relationship, Emma intends to accept his proposal, which he’s hinted will happen on Christmas Eve.
Gabe’s brother, Ethan, comes for an extended Christmas visit. Emma is instantly drawn to his spirit of fun and his kindness. Ethan is very different from his brother. Emma can’t believe she’s falling in love with Ethan…
I couldn’t put the book down. The author weaves a story of two mismatched people in a dating relationship when the right person comes along. Relatable characters experience guilt as well as hope for something different.
This novella can be read in an afternoon. I look forward to reading the next book in the series!
