Rate this book
Love at first sight runs into the King family and no one knows that more than Hayden King. He fell in love with Hope Prince while working at a beachside resort years ago. The only problem? She keeps running away.

Hope Prince knows that the only person she can rely on is herself, it's why she travels so much, moving from country to country, state to state, never settling down too long to make friends. Then she stumbles into the quaint coastal town of Hartwood Bay. It feels like home in a way that no other place has. She finds herself working two jobs and becoming part of the community in a way she's never allowed herself.

Fate finds a way to keep pushing Hayden and Hope together but when Hayden finds her not only in his hometown but working at his parents resort, he knows it's time. He's not letting her go again.

It's time for the last King sibling to get his HEA. Hayden King's story is a fast-paced, heartwarming, Aussie Christmas story.

Tillys books feel like a warm hug from an old friend.

I want to visit Hartwood Bay and say hi to the gang!

I love that Hayden was so sure Hope was the one, and the universe knew it too and kept dropping her in his lap wherever their travels took them in the world.

The characters are real and imperfect and filled with all of the insecurities and self doubt that most of us are all too familiar with.

This Christmas beauty was the perfect last piece in the King family puzzle and it was such fun to read it!

A short Christmas romance that is sure to hit you in the feels. A fated romance that has you wanting to knock Hope out and claim Hayden for yourself.

I really loved the authentic writing by Tilly. She writes real characters that you can't help but fall in love with. The fact that Hayden wasn't a sculpted god helped a lot in this case. I loved reading this realistic romance and wanted more.
