**ARC provided by author in exchange for an honest review**3.5 StarsI love the holidays especially Christmas, so around this time of the year I am always looking for a great holiday read.  When I was contacted to review this novella by the author I was completely excited!!!  I knew going in that it was going to be a novella, so I knew it was short and quick.  When a book is this short and quick it is really hard to write a review for it, so I apologize now if this is on the short side.This book was such a cute a sweet love story with Christmas as the background.  It was a very quick read….I finished it in about 45 mins.  But I will say that when I was finished I had a huge smile on my face.  Being that it is a novella and a shorter read, it is hard to get attached to the characters.  Although I did like what we saw of Imogen and Blake.  I just wish this book would've been just slightly longer, so we would've gotten some more background on these two characters.Imogen and Blake were very cute together.  I loved their banter and conversations.  The way they talked to each other, you would've thought they knew each other for years and not having just met.  I enjoyed the storyline of the book and watching them getting to know each other.  The author even stuck a little action into the book which completely took me by surprise.  It was out of nowhere but still blended with the story well.I did think the ending was kind of abrupt….I wish we would've gotten just a little more in the end of the book.  After reading the first couple of lines in the book it has you wondering what happened and what the "pact" was, well I loved the pact when we find out but I wish the story would've ended by bringing us back to the present time, because the story is told in the past.Like I said I really did enjoy this novella and I am glad the author contacted me to review it.  I would recommend this if you have a short amount of time to read and want something with a holiday theme to it.  There isn't any steam but you don't miss it in this story.  It is one that I think adding steam would've been out of place.  This was definitely one of those feel good love stories, that will have you smiling in the end.
