In this friends-to-lovers Regency romance by USA Today bestselling and HOLT Medallion winning author BREE WOLF, childhood friends Anne and Tobias, once known as Little Annie and Little Toby, are forced down a rocky path when they realize that friendship alone is no longer enough. Will they dare reach for more?
She is his oldest friend, and he is hers.
Until a mistletoe kiss...
...goes horribly wrong.
England 1801: MISS ANNE THATCHER ought to choose a husband. That, however, is easier said than done for no man of her acquaintance manages to capture her attention, her interest, her heart. The only man she has ever loved is Tobias Hawke, her childhood friend who has always been like an older brother to her, troublesome but loyal. Anne cannot think of him without remembering how he used to hide frogs in her bed when they were children. He is her friend, not a suitor, and yet, lately, whenever she finds herself looking into those chocolate-brown eyes of his, Anne cannot help but wonder...
...what if he kissed her?
TOBIAS HAWKE, brother to Viscount Barrington, no longer sees the little girl he once knew when he looks at his childhood friend Anne Thatcher. To him, she's no longer Little Annie, and the thought that she might still think of him as Little Toby disturbs him greatly. Yes, she is his confidante, his friend, the one woman who knows him like no other, but...
...what if he kissed her?
Neither one of them dares to risk the friendship that connected them since childhood...until Christmas arrives, and they find themselves pushed under a sprig of mistletoe.
What if?
