My Review:

Hayley Anderton’s The Christmas Pact was an enjoyable and warm read about friendship. It is also a story about love and heartache. It is a story about how two friends make a pact, The Christmas Pact after one of them, Liv witnesses her boyfriend of four years kissing another woman. 

Liv calls her best friend Nat and tells her what Liam did. Nat comes rushing to Liv’s side to hopefully make her friend feel better. Nat is the best friend a girl could have. Nat is the one whose idea it was to make The Christmas Pact. Nat is trying to distract her friend so she won’t feel the hurt of a broken heart. 

The Christmas Pact warmed my heart. Now, don’t get me wrong; I did feel Liv's hurt after Liam betrayed her. But Nat warmed my heart when she rushed over to do everything she could to make Liv feel better. 

The Christmas Pact is a great story to read at any time of the year. I recommend it to everyone. Grab a copy today!
