🌨️❄️ Just weeks before Christmas, a sudden blanket of snow has brought public transport to a halt, stranding Izzy miles from home. ❄️🌨️
While she hoped for a Christmas miracle, Izzy never expected to spend the weekend holed up in Rob's swanky flat, watching London transform into a winter wonderland. After all, Izzy and Rob have a complicated history…
Six months ago, she was stood in the vestry of a beautiful country church when best man Rob delivered the news that any bride would dread on her big day.
But at the time of year when anything is possible, can Rob and Izzy let go of the past and let Christmas work its magic? Or will this be one holiday wish that Izzy lets walk right out of her life…
