This book comprises of two short stories; Christy and Miranda. Christy ran away with her children to the city just to gain the attention of her ever busy husband; Alessandro with the hope that he will come and take them home. But it backfired. And christmas is near and both their childrens' wishes was to celebrate the season holiday with their father at their family home with their mother. So, Christy have no choice but to agreed. Being at home again with her husband evoked many emotions in Christy. Both of the characters are so hardheaded that reading thru their story, i wish i would just whack them on their head. The miscommunication between the two of them is so bad that at times i wonder how they are going to mend their relationship! Mirinda was six month pregnant when Jake found her alone in the forest. Jake was attracted to her from the first moment they met but Miranda refuses to accept that what more with her current conditions. Jake continue to pursue her to the extend that he insisted her to stay at his home just so for him to take care of her. It was disheartening to see Miranda keep pushing Jake's away whenever Jake trying to get thru her. There were times that I dislikes Miranda alot but when i realise the reason Miranda pushes him away, i begin to understand her situation ;)
