| Briar is not in the holiday mood especially if it means
spending it with his father's family. To avoid that
unpleasantness Briar decides to hide out in his new house
but let everyone believe he went away, including his
mother. Of course lying to your mother always backfires, in
Briar's case his mother offers his supposedly empty house to
Lil, a family friend who was stranded in town over the
holiday season.
Lil, was grateful to not have to spend another night in
the moving van he rented to travel cross country. Briar was
a lifesaver but true to his name, Lil can see he was a
prickly person to get next too.
Lying to your mother more often than not leads to trouble,
but for Lil and Briar it may have been the best thing they
have ever done. A Seasonal Guest is a quick
read, with a sweet start to what may hopefully be a
beautiful relationship.
Lil and Briar knew each other from when they were
children but were never close, meeting up again through the
meddling of their mothers was probably the best present they
could have given their sons and they didn't even realize it. |
