College is a confusing time. There are so many things to deal with: finding out who you are and who you want to be. Living out on your own, probably for the first time. Acting like an adult but still feeling like a child.
Those visits home only seem to make things more complicated. The friends you treasured back in high school might have grown in different directions, while the people you didn't get along with, you suddenly seem to have a lot ore in common with. Relationships change. They evolve.
And sometimes, they have a chance to start again.
My holiday short story, A Gift of Trust, is a case in point:
When Matt was forced to move away, suddenly and without warning, the day after taking her to the Christmas Ball, he broke Lib's heart and shattered her ability to trust in love.
Three years later, he's the last person she expected to run into on a bus heading home for the holidays.
As the two of them reconnect, Lib finds herself just as drawn to him as ever, but her wariness compels her to keep her distance. Devastated by his failure to keep in touch over the years, she's determined to protect her heart–almost as determined as he is to make up for lost time. Matt seems intent on winning her love. But this time, he'll first have to earn her trust.
It's a steamy-hot, contemporary best-friends-to-lovers story, full of old hurts and second chances, all set against the backdrop of a small-town Christmas.
