The Christmas anthologies are coming out on a daily basis now, but so are the Advent Calendars filled with free novellas. And today I wanted to share my story His Christmas Runaway Bride, a novella in my Kingsmill Courtships series. This is a love story about Trent Mosby and Ivy Lane, two people desperately searching for a home until a secret forces them apart. This novella is now a Bookfunnel download in The New Romance Cafe’s Facebook Group as part of the their December Advent Calendar daily giveaway. His Christmas Runaway Bride is filled with all the holiday romance vibes… and I hope you enjoy it as much as I loved writing it. But don’t forget to check in with the group daily as there will be free books just for you all month long!
His Christmas Runaway Bride
This Christmas, can Ivy find a home sheโs always dreamed of? Or will a dangerous secret force her to leave again?
Ivy Lane thought moving to Kingsmill, VA, with her new boyfriend, Trent Mosby, would allow her to rebuild her life. She also believes that separate apartments will give their whirlwind relationship a chance to slow down. Ivy is in love, but sheโs also pragmatic. Sheโs run from relationships before and hopes that if she takes her time, Kingsmill, and Trent, will be her final destination.
Trent, not thrilled with the living arrangements, is willing to do whatever is necessary to make Ivy feel safe and happyโuntil a power outage threatens the townโs Christmas events and Ivy becomes a target of the local outlaw MC. When Trent takes on his hometownโs most dangerous elements, heโll sacrifice everything to save her. Even if it sends her running away again.
As Christmas approaches, and outside threats force them apart, Trent must prove to Ivy that their love is realโฆ their love will surviveโฆ and their love will last forever.
