The Christmas Swap

Margot Murray’s holiday plans are looking distinctly empty when Ben offers her a Christmas in the English countryside. The invitation comes with one condition. For the duration of the family visit, Margot will play his girlfriend. It sounds like a manageable favour for a friend, particularly when the alternative is spending the holiday nursing a breakup. Then Margot meets Ellie, Ben’s sister. Ellie has her doubts about her brother’s supposed romance and every intention of finding out what his guest is hiding. Unfortunately for their cover story, the more attention Ellie pays Margot, the more Margot wants to keep it. Telling the truth would mean admitting whose affection she actually wants.
