Whispered Wishes & Mistletoe Kisses: A Williamsville Inn Story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798269694313)

After a devastating breakup leaves him questioning everything about love and relationships, Elliott Morgan wants nothing more than to spend the holidays hiding in his Newark apartment. But his well-meaning friends have other plans, whisking him away to the charming snow-covered town of Williamsville for a week-long Christmas getaway.

Elementary school teacher Gar Dawson has spent years pouring his heart into Williamsville's holiday celebrations, creating handmade Christmas sweaters and volunteering for every festive event. But beneath his cheerful exterior, he's been quietly aching with loneliness since losing his sister-until a grumpy stranger from New Jersey literally crashes into his life.

Elliott expects small-town holiday cheer to be his personal nightmare. Gar expects another lonely Christmas despite being surrounded by his caring community. Neither expects the spark that ignites when Elliott's sarcasm meets Gar's genuine warmth, or how quickly stolen kisses under twinkling lights begin to heal their wounded hearts.

As Elliott finds himself reluctantly drawn into Williamsville's festive celebrations-from crafting ornaments to manning Christmas games-both men begin to hope again. But when Elliott discovers that Gar has been keeping a secret, old wounds threaten to destroy the fragile trust they've built.

With only days left until Elliott leaves town, both must decide whether to retreat behind familiar walls or take the biggest risk of all-believing that some Christmas wishes really do come true.

Set against the backdrop of a town that treats every holiday like magic, this heartwarming standalone grumpy/sunshine romance explores second chances, the courage to be vulnerable, and the transformative power of found family.
