Coming home for the holidays after eight long years to say goodbye, I found myself saying hello. Melissa—or Missy as I remembered her—had had a crush on me. But being a typical eighteen-year-old, I didn’t pay much attention to the blushing twelve-year-old.I walked away without so much as a backwards glance. But now? Now I can’t tear my eyes away. Gone was the girl with braces and pigtails…in … braces and pigtails…in her place was a woman who took my breath away.
I just had to prove to her I wasn’t the same guy I was back then. I prayed for a Christmas miracle, but I never expected this.
Her.
Us.

Light enjoyable read. There is steam, romance, loss and of course snow. Get a cup of hot chocolate and relax with this sweet short story.
This is a sweet, slow-burning holiday romance worthy of a ‘Hallmark’ tag.
Let It Snow by Kristie Leigh was a delightful little holiday read. It was sweet and fun, and totally unGrinch-worthy.
Work-a-holic Sullivan has been forced to return home to visit his dying Grandmother. While there he reconnects with a girl from his past. Melissa or Missy as he once knew her, is several years his junior and when he left home eight years before to attend college, she was only twelve. But she’d had a huge crush on him even then.
She is still harboring those feelings but tries to keep them hidden. It doesn’t take Sullivan long to succumb to the spell of the holidays and start seeing Missy the way she is now. All woman. So, grab yourself a mug of hot chocolate and a seat by a cozy fire and lose yourself in the sweetest if Christmas tales.
