Matthew laughed heartily and playfully pinched the bridge of her nose.
“What’s on your mind? Are you okay with it?”

“You’re not welcome. Get out.”
Susie didn’t take offense and explained. “It’s Christmas Eve tomorrow.
I’m inviting you to celebrate with my family.”
Neville ignored her so she pressed on. “Your parents have agreed.”
Neville’s eyes shot open. His gaze landed on her. “I don’t have a choice, huh?”
It was Christmas Eve.
With the movie shoot wrapped up, Stella found herself with some free time. She decided to spend the day at the Clark family’s home, arriving early in the morning to lend a hand.
