It’s Christmas Eve, and Maisie is convinced her boyfriend, Lucas, is totally going to propose. The cookies are baked, the mood is set, and her ring finger is perfectly poised.

What did I listen to?

What was that?! So much happens in these 30 minutes! I hope we get more from this! Savannah and Joe were great as usual. Well worth the listen!

Unique and unexpected listen!

This was definitely unlike anything I’ve ever read before! This is a super short Christmas horror (I think that’s what you could classify it as).

While less than 30 pages long (and less than an hour in audiobook form), it still packed a punch. I was absolutely not expecting the ending of this one!

Savannah Thomas and Joe Arden do a great job giving us so much in such a little amount of time. Their voices helped pack that punch!

Dark and twisty!

At the end of this you’re going to be like wait that’s it… I need more and possibly wondering wth?! It just dives right in with twists you won’t see coming and an ending to leave you with your mouth hanging open. After the momentary shock of the ending and it being over so fast, you may even find yourself chuckling if you have a dark sense of humor like myself. It will definitely have you wondering about how easily trust is given and how in an instant everything can change. I loved it!
This is great if you’re looking for a VERY quick, psychological thriller, that’s twisty and dark. It’s not a romance and if you’re looking for an HEA this isn’t that book. While it’s a great thriller for any of time of the year with it taking place around the holidays this would also be a perfect seasonal read too.

The narration performed in duet by Savannah Thomas and Joe Arden was great. As always, they did amazing bringing the characters and story to life. With their incredible skills and range as voice actors they can do so many characters and genres very well.

So good

Possibly one of the best short stories. Story, narration, everything—just excellent 10/10. No notes
