Twenty-three days to marry one man-or lose everything. Unless you keep them both. ZOLA: I ran from this Christmas tree farm thirteen years ago-ran from grief, from River Cross, from a love that terrified me. Built a perfect life in Atlanta with Marcus Wellington's ring on my finger.
Then Daddy's will destroyed everything: marry River by Christmas Day, or fifty-three families lose their jobs when the farm sells.
Few days. That's all I have.
I thought I'd choose Marcus-safe, stable, perfect on paper. Then River kissed me in the barn and thirteen years of running vanished. His hands remember every way to make me beg. His mouth knows sounds I've never made for anyone else.
I betrayed Marcus. Lied for days while the guilt ate me alive.
When I finally confessed, I expected him to leave. To end us. Instead, he made an impossible offer:
What if you keep us both? The town judges. But the magic Wishing Tree shows me a future where love multiplies instead of divides.
I just have to be brave enough to want everything-and believe I deserve it.
RIVER: Thirteen years I waited. Thirteen years since Zola left me standing in the snow.
Her father's will gives me one shot: marry her by Christmas Day or lose everything.
Then she confesses to her fiancé that she's been with me. That she cheated. That she wants us both.
Marcus Wellington should be my enemy-corporate lawyer, Boston money, everything I'm not. He should leave. Instead, he offers something impossible: share her.
Few days to prove polyamory can work. Twenty-two days to build a life with the woman I never stopped loving and the man who refuses to give up on her.
Christmas Eve, I marry her legally. Marcus commits spiritually. The farm is saved. And we become something the world doesn't understand but feels right in every way that matters.
She's mine. She's his. She's ours.
MARCUS: I came for a funeral. I'm leaving with a wife, a brother, and a Christmas miracle I never expected.
When Zola confessed she'd been with River, I should've walked away. Should've ended it. But I couldn't lose her-not to grief, not to guilt, not to choosing between us.
So I made an offer that terrified me:
keep us both. Few days to prove love doesn't have to be exclusive. Days until she marries River legally and commits to me spiritually.
Polyamory wasn't my plan. Harvard Law didn't cover sharing your fiancée. My parents will disown me. But watching Zola find freedom in loving us both? That's worth everything.
River gives her roots and passion. I give her wings and security. Together, we're complete.
Christmas Eve, she becomes his wife and my partner. The farm survives. And somehow, impossibly, we're building a family from impossible choices and Christmas magic.
Three hearts. One impossible love. A Christmas deadline that changes everything.A steamy BWWM polyamorous Christmas romance where magic is real and choosing both isn't selfish-it's necessary.
