When Henrietta Price accidentally pummels a gentleman with a snowball, her instant mortification turns to delight when she discovers the young man is none other than her childhood best friend, Charlie. Though they haven't seen each other in ten years, he still has the same vivid blue eyes, wicked laugh, and caring nature she remembers so well. Once he’d even vowed—at ten years old—to marry her, if necessary, to save her from a life of spinsterhood. And although she's considering another man's proposal, she can't quite keep that long-ago promise out of her head...
Charlie Newkirk hasn't stopped thinking about Hen since she stole a kiss from him all those years ago. Now he can scarcely believe the beautiful woman in front of him is the same girl whose braid he used to pull. Worse, he has no idea if she's given her heart to the wealthy young marquess courting her or if she even remembers the promise he hopes to fulfill. With their future happiness at stake, will Charlie be able to remind Henrietta of their Christmas pact and turn their childhood friendship into a newfound romance? Or will he forever remain just someone she used to know?
