This was a very creepy and successful novella!
Ashley Smith is an American girl studying art in London for her junior year. She has no family after the death of her mother. Not having many choices, Ashley is prepared to spend the holidays alone when a classmate, Emma Chapman invites her to stay at her family home, Starwood Hall.
Ashley is more excited about the trip after meeting Ashley's twin brother, Adam. The days spent in Starwood Hall are full of family, games, food, and the local bars. Ashley finds herself falling for Adam. He is charismatic and spending time in his company is exciting to Ashley until she discovers that Adam is the prime suspect in the murder of a local woman who looks like her.
In the blink of an eye, this goes from being a romance to becoming a horror novel.
The Christmas Guest is an atmospheric novella with engaging characters and I couldn't wait to see how it all ended.
Cliffhanger: No
4/5 Fangs
A complimentary copy was provided by William Morrow via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
