Kayla's Christmas Promise
(2026)(The eighth book in the Christmas in Birchdale series)
A Story by Ruby Hill
A fresh start. A second chance at happiness.
That’s what my best friend promised when she convinced me to leave the city and come home to Birchdale.
What she failed to mention was that my fresh start came with a boss. Specifically, my first love. The one who broke my heart ten years ago and apparently never stopped thinking about me. A detail I’d have appreciated knowing before I walked into his brand-new ice rink.
Lucas Gomez always had a plan. And somehow this one involves me managing his business, lacing up skates I swore I’d never wear again, and pretending I’m perfectly composed every time he looks at me like that.
I should walk away. I’ve done it before.
But the rink is beautiful, the town has changed in all the right ways, and Lucas seems determined to prove he’s not the boy who let me go.
The problem with second chances is that you have to be brave enough to take them. And the last time I trusted Lucas with my heart, it didn’t end well.
Then again... neither did leaving.
