In Kristi Ann Hunter's "Legacy of Love," Sarah Gooding never suspected returning a brooch to an elderly woman would lead to a job . . . and introduce her to the woman's grandson, a man far above her station. In Karen Witemeyer's "Gift of the Heart," widow Ruth Albright uses the family brooch as collateral for a loan from the local banker. But the more she comes to know the man behind the stern businessman, the more she hopes for a second chance at love. In Sarah Loudin Thomas's "A Shot at Love," Fleeta Brady's rough-and-tumble childhood means she prefers hunting to more feminine activities. She never expected her family's brooch might be how a fellow hunter turns her attention from competition to romance. In Becky Wade's "Because of You," Maddie Winslow has spent years in love with a man whose heart was already spoken for. When a church Christmas project brings them together and she stumbles upon an old family brooch, might it finally be her turn for love?

The other problem-Winter's already madly in love with Chris and letting him help her could have her confessing all her dirty secrets to him. When Chris comes up with a plan that will make them all happy, will Winter be able to let go of what everyone else wants her to be and embrace the new life that he and Luke are offering her? Or, will she play it safe and give up not just one but two perfect guys to keep her life simple?Double The Mistletoe is a Christmas Novella and the third book of the Taken Series by K.L. Ramsey
