Left at the altar just days before Christmas, Ember Noel refuses to let heartbreak steal her holiday spirit. With the wedding off but the honeymoon to Montego Bay still booked, she decides to go anyway—trading tears for tropical sunsets and the chance to find herself again beneath the island sun. What she doesn’t expect is Malachi Frost—one of the groomsmen and her ex-fiancé’s closest friends—showing up on the same island. Especially after the unexpected night they shared when the wedding that never happened should’ve been. What begins as coincidence soon turns into something comfort she didn’t know she needed, chemistry she can’t deny, and a peace that feels dangerously close to love. Between moonlit swims, reggae rhythms, and the warmth of a Caribbean Christmas, Ember and Malachi find themselves rewriting what forever means.
Because sometimes heartbreak isn’t the ending—it’s just the beginning of the story that was always meant to be.
