Yes, both Ash (Lee) and Pat have dated other people, Pat was previously married and has a kid, Ash moved away to study and follow his dreams.and yet despite drifting apart over the years, with an occasional near miss or two that might have had them coupled up earlier, they never quite synced up.but each of them also never forgot 'the one that got away.' I have a soft spot for the Friends-to-Lovers trope, and when they've been lusting after each other since High School? I'm practically swooning. * ARC provided by the author for an honest and unbiased review.* What's not to love? It's a season to be jolly. But again, Christmas is all about giving, acceptance, family and love. I liked the dynamic between Lee and Pat, and Lee with Pat's daughter, Jordan. No wasting time, it fast but also a heartwarming holiday story I craved. They waited for seventeen years for finally together. There's so many things Amy wanted to tell us about Lee and Pat in this short story, so I think there's no such thing like 'moving to fast' is reliable. I liked how Amy Aislin portrayed the 'reality' of a sport celebrity man with all his complicated situation, not selfish and thought about his baby girl's feeling when it comes to his relationship with Ashley/Ash/Lee, a ballet instructor for his daughter. Aww.this is a cute short Christmas story with a daddy wearing ballet tutu and all the glitter, finding his first love and a second chance of love.
