A Christmas Kiss

Three wise men star in this trio of artful novellas. In Norfleet’s delectable “Sealed with a Kiss,” a bad boy turned multimillionaire returns to Hayden, Ga., to reunite with his first love, who sacrificed her own happiness to convince him to leave the town he hated. In Hart’s somewhat tangled “Mistletoe Lane,” a man healing from a failed marriage and his wife’s infidelity falls for his new employee, who’s trying to overcome her own hurtful past. In Mello’s delightful “His Christmas Gifts,” Ethan Christmas falls for Bianca Torres, who’s 25 years his junior; her parents are attempting to fix her up with Ethan’s son, who’s secretly gay and already in a relationship. Parades, hot chocolate, tree trimming, and gift giving help guide these couples to their merry-ever-afters. (Oct.)
