Whispered Wishes & Mistletoe Kisses: A Williamsville Inn Story
By Hank Edwards — Paperback, November 10, 2025

When heartbreak meets holiday magic, anything can happen.

After a devastating breakup leaves him cynical about love, Elliott Morgan wants to spend Christmas hiding from the world in his Newark apartment. But his meddling friends have other plans—whisking him away to the snow-covered town of Williamsville, where small-town charm and forced festivities are the last things on his wish list.

Gar Dawson, an elementary school teacher with a heart as big as his collection of handmade Christmas sweaters, has poured everything into the town’s holiday celebrations. Behind the cheer, though, lies a quiet loneliness that even twinkling lights can’t dispel. Then a sarcastic city stranger crashes into his carefully ordered life, and sparks fly faster than reindeer on Christmas Eve.

As Elliott and Gar are thrown together in a week of holiday games, volunteer projects, and late-night cocoa-fueled confessions, attraction turns to something deeper. But when Gar’s long-held secret comes to light, both men must decide if they can trust love again—or if fear will send them back into the cold.

Set against the backdrop of a town that treats every holiday like a second chance, Whispered Wishes & Mistletoe Kisses is a grumpy/sunshine Christmas romance about healing, vulnerability, and the magic of found family. Perfect for readers who love Schitt’s Creek, Heartstopper, and Hallmark movies with a queer twist.
