My rating: 3 of 5 stars
When Casey Stevens went away to college four years ago, he ghosted on his best friend, Joel Vreeland. He hoped time and distance would lessen the unrequited affection he felt, but all it did was make him miss Joel more. Home for the holidays, Casey hopes they might find a way to be friends again. But Joel’s frosty reception reminds Casey of just how hard he had to fight to be Joel’s friend in the first place. It’s going to take a Christmas miracle to get past that cool façade again. Joel's years of pining for Casey have left him hurting and alone, caring for his abusive father and struggling to get by. Unable to trust anyone except his rescue dog his icy heart might shatter before it can thaw. Can Casey and Joel’s love overcome mistrust, parental rejection, class differences, and four long years apart?
This was an ok story although I did find it hard going as I found that my irritation with the characters detracted from the story. I did like that they were together and it gave them the strength to go against the negativity of their families. Easy to read and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.
