Summary:

A sweet, holiday romance full of hope, wonder, and holiday cheer. Follow Cordi as she learns to believe in Christmas miracles when a chance meeting turns into something more.





Review:
Another random find as a freebie in the Amazon store. 

Here we follow Cordi who is a jilted blind dater. Her date never showed, but she sits with another fella who is everything she ever wanted. However, she runs into that stranger at her friend's Christmas party...and she realized he is one and the same. 

But yes, Cordi thinks she was stood up and finds someone better. Turns out it is the same guy. And Cordi realizes it at the party a few days later. 

Oh Russ...you big ol' fat liar. Sure he goes by Graham and Russ. But that was a dirty trick to play on her. Granted he tried to make it up and explain it....but very weak explanation. And Cordi should've made him work harder for forgiveness. It was a miracle that she did. Maybe that is the whole miracle aspect of this Xmas short. 

Sighs. This was too short. I think Russ should've been made to work hard. Maybe there could've been an epilogue where he does a grand gesture to propose or something. 

But yes...this was okay-ish for me. Not my favorite of the season. 

2 stars.

A weak explanation for doing that would not have been good enough.
