Wanderlust is a wonderful novella about friends reconnecting and how their love has transcended time. Ruby and Ford studied together at university, they were best friends and did everything together. On their last day as students, they share a scorching kiss, a kiss that touched their souls, a kiss that held the promise of so much more. Their paths, however took different turns and while Ruby stayed in England to take care of her younger sister, Ford went and traveled the world, promising to keep in touch but that promise went unfulfilled.We find Ruby, 8 years later, preparing to host their friends wedding. Ford has declined to attend but in a last minute decision, he turns up on Ruby's doorstep and all the memories of that kiss return.Their attraction to each other is still very much alive and while Ruby is convinced Ford is only here for the wedding, and will soon go back to his life, she cannot fight what her heart is telling her. Ford is just as rocked by his feelings for Ruby as she is and they both stop fighting the attraction and reignite the passion from that first kiss. Will it be fling or something more?I really enjoyed this novella and was a lovely quick read filled with romance and steamy lust. Throw in a snowstorm and some creative wedding planning and it is the perfect holiday read.
