— YOU MAKE EVERYDAY FEEL LIKE IT'S CHRISTMAS —

dedicated to the other sad girl air signs who have not only been the greatest supporters throughout the writing of this book, but the greatest screamers at me and my antics as well.

SYNOPSIS

Roman Sahota has lost and loved over and over again. Sometimes not in that order.

When he got divorced, life seemed like it was ending. But, he had three girls, and life went on. Therapy went on, too. Funny how that worked out.

Ten months after the divorce, the last thing Roman expected was a call from his ex-wife, Florence Meadowlark, telling him that she needed him. For what? Oh, just Christmas. All of it. Because she forgot to tell her family about said divorce that had haunted him since the moment he signed the papers.

He wished he wasn't so nice.

this can be read as a standalone, but it's kind of like watching Revenge of the Sith without watching the original trilogy. you'll probably—hopefully—enjoy it, but it won't be the same without the little nuances that tie them together.

also, did not use faceclaims for the kids. because that's weird. picture them yourselves, weirdos. ❤️
