divorce eve friends love new newyearseve party years

Six long-time friends gather for their annual New Year’s Eve party. They are meeting at Craig and Hannah’s spectacular home in the country. Hannah is a best-selling romance novelist. Craig is her adoring husband. All seems perfect. 

Except nothing is. No one knows that Craig left Hannah several months ago and is living across town with another woman. Tonight, Craig and Hannah will play the part one more time. Because tomorrow will be soon enough for broken dreams and reality. Tonight, they just have to get through the party.

But they didn’t plan on the snowstorm. A snowstorm that will keep them all snowed in together for the next three days - including two ex-spouses who have both brought dates! Anyone can "play nice" for a short time, but three days is plenty of time for secrets to be discovered, for illusions to be shattered, and for resolutions to be broken.

So, dab a little perfume behind your ear, put your party dress on, and slip into your favorite heels. You’re invited to the party!All Rights Reserved

Line & Sinker by elcalloway

27 year old December Bellamy has not only endured a soul shattering break up, but is now at the age where her peers are announcing engagements seemingly every month. She should be the one with a ring on her finger right now, planning her bachelorette party. Instead, she's allowed herself to be convinced by her younger sister to try out this new dating app, and despite all of her reservations, things seem to be going well. That is, until Hudson. It was one thing that he stood her up, and another thing that he gave a terrible excuse about why. But, when Hudson begins to mention small details about her world that she's never shared with him, that's when things get too weird for December to handle. Breaking things off was such a no brainer, there was no second thought given to it even after Hudson promises she's made a huge mistake. Before long, December is receiving emails, photos, and gifts from an unknown sender who has seemed to be everywhere and no where all at once. With a egotistical ex-boyfriend, a mysteriously and suspiciously invested neighbor, and a best friend that's a little too devoted - December soon realizes, this threat is closer to home than she expected.

'I think you know who I was talking about Paige' he looks me in the eyes and I feel my whole world turn to mush. Oh My God. 'You said you were falling in love with me?' My lungs feel like they're about to burst. Why is it so fucking hard to breath right now. I scoot closer to him so that our knees were touching. He looks deep into my eyes. 'I did, I still am' he almost whispers.

Believing that when you find the person you're destined to be with, nothing will stand in the way of that. So When she finally lands with Paul, her crush for as long as she can remember, she gets a shock when an unexpected source causes her to question everything she ever believed in.

Play Me That Song by BethBradyBooks

"The things you do for friends." He laughed softly... "Yeah. For friends," I whispered. "Is that what we are then?".... "Is that what you want?" he asked after several moments of just staring at each other. I gripped the door frame behind me as I felt my knees weaken. I was sure by his smirk that the movement didn't go unnoticed. I swallowed nervously. I didn't know what to say. Just a week ago I told him we were nothing. A few days before that I was ready to tell him off and possibly even smack him if I ever got the chance to see him again. Sure, he was one of my oldest friends and my first (and only) love, but he was also my first heartbreak. Could I go back to being friends with the same guy who insinuated to the world that I was a cheater? And why did "just friends" feel like not enough in this moment? *** ** * When McKenzie went out with her best friends one night, she never dreamed she would run into her ex, famous country singer Beau Anderson, and she never dreamed that she would allow him to come back into her life. Unable to cope with having a relationship in the public eye again, McKenzie is determined to resist all of Beau's charms...no matter how hard that may be.. Beau is determined to tear down the walls she's built since their ugly and very public split. But what will he find in the rubble? Will they be just friends ...something more...or nothing at all....? Can they reconcile their past in time to save their future? *** ** * WARNING: mature content! There is inappropriate language and some mature scenes.

A Kiss Under The Kismet Tree by KBMallion

The letters had strangely stopped from my long-time American pen pal, until I got another letter to explain the sad reason why. Devastated to learn that Sara had tragically died, I could only mourn her untimely death and her faraway loss. Now, the long-distance letters have slowly began to arrive back through my door, just as they used to before. They are now coming from the brother of Sara...the one who first wrote to me about the truly sad passing of his sister. One word at a time, this man is beginning to intrigue me. One word at a time, he is making me want to read more from him. But Cary Dean lives in New England, and I live by the sea in Dorset. I can't let him intrigue me. I can't want to read more of his words. I'm Rosa Summers - a hopeless romantic who is totally hopeless with all things romantic, and yet, Cary Dean is managing to write his way deep into my heart, and with Christmas just around the corner, I can't let my silly heart run away with itself. Christmas is all about kindness and laughter. It's about sharing goodwill and spreading joy.... it's not about falling for someone I can't ever be with. But the magical spirit of Christmas... well, let's just say it has other ideas! A KISS UNDER THE KISMET TREE Published by K B Mallion Copyright © 2018 K B Mallion

The Sea of You & Me by Fireheart73

Nobody told me adulthood was going to be this way. How I constantly feel like I have no idea what I'm doing. I'd imagine it feels like being stranded in the middle of the ocean with no land in sight.

And now, you won't be the one on the boat throwing me a lifevest like you've always done. That ship sailed long ago. It was up to me now to save myself. ------ Kennedy was only supposed to be gone one year. That was the plan. It's been 5.

While everything has changed including her, everything seems to be the same. Will she be able to confront her past including the boy next door that she just can't seem to get rid of? It's taken Cal five years to forget the girl next door. He certainly wasn't expecting his feelings to come flooding back at the moment their eyes found each other.

In the final installment of The Deep End trilogy, Kennedy and Cal are forced together for a wedding after years apart.
