The following heated vignettes:
A Night of Contrasts (The Stone Family)
Seize the Moment (Petra & Aiden)
Wedding in a Box (Tamara & Caleb, Karen & Finn, Petra & Aiden)
Ugly Sweater Redux (Holidays in Heart Falls crew and others)

And the brand new short stories:

The Start of Us (Ginny & Tucker)
Every February, Tucker returns to Heart Falls to honour the saddest day with his friends. They’ve  shared good memories, and painful ones. This year, Tucker is trying his damnedest to not notice that his best friend’s little sister is definitely all grown up. Not the place. Not the time.

Except Ginny thinks it’s definitely the time, and the place, and there’s not much use in arguing with a Stone.

Gifts of the Heart (Edison & Kevin)
After dating for over six months, Kevin is looking for more than casual fun and flirting with Edison. Only his colourful butterfly of a boyfriend is commitment phobic, and Kevin isn’t about to hurt the most tender-hearted, sweetest, and sexiest man he’s ever met by pushing boundaries.

Which puts holiday gift giving squarely in Edison’s corner. Can Edison dance past his fears and find a very Kevin and Edison approved way to admit he’s ready for more?
