  The Christmas Promise

  a McClendon Holiday novel by Sean D. Young

  Jennifer needs a vacation. What better place to have fun than a sun-drenched tropical island with a handsome software engineer. Simeon wants more than a holiday romance, but a tragic accident leaves him in hospital for months, and he isn’t able to follow up on his promise to keep in touch. But Fate steps in four years after their holiday, and Simeon realizes Jennifer didn’t only leave the island with good memories. If he can convince her to give them a chance, this might just be their first family Christmas.

Bryan Truitt wants that property—but he gets more than he bargained for when his “quick business” in Mayhem puts him in the path of the feisty Hennessy. Suddenly Bryan’s not sure which he wants more…the property or the woman who owns it.
