‘Summer!’
‘Summer?’ Angus creased up his nose. ‘That’s not a Christmas name.’
‘She was born in summer.’
‘But Christmas is in winter in England, it won’t make sense.’
‘It will to us.’
‘A December baby called Summer!’ Angus looked over to his sleeping new daughter. A little ray of sunshine, a little bit of summer, no matter how cold the winter, and, yes, he conceded happily, Imogen was right and he kissed her to tell her so.
‘Summer Lake…’ Imogen sighed, coming up for breath.
‘Summer Maitlin,’ Angus corrected, kissing her again.
‘Summer Lake-Maitlin.’ Imogen said, and then she smiled. ‘We’ll keep working on it.’
