MISTLETOE MEDIUM by Elizabeth Delisi When Lottie Baldwin''s love relationship goes sour, she impulsively pulls up stakes and moves to Cheyenne, North Dakota, home of her best friend, Janet Randall. She thinks the worst challenge she''ll have to overcome is fitting into her new small home town; after all, her Tarot cards and psychic abilities make some people think of her as...well...eccentric.

Can she and the handsome new man in her life, deputy sheriff Harlan Erikson, pool their talents and solve the mystery before the bandit strikes again?

As a result, Rianna discovers the perfect answer to her prayers on the most romantic day of the year: Valentines Day.

FATE''S LITTLE TRICK by Sheryl Hames Torres Gemma McKinsey Fuller wouldn''t celebrate Christmas again if you paid her. Twice she lost everything to a greedy Christmas Eve. She survived the first time when her fiancé chose his boss''s daughter instead of her. Five Christmas Eves later, Gemma walked away from an auto crash without her husband, her baby, and her hearing. Although the doctors said there was nothing physically wrong with her, she could hear nothing until she touched another human being. Then all their sorrow and pain would wash over her like tortured screams. The psychiatrists called it empathy. Gemma called it insanity. Finally, unable to take it any longer, Gemma escapes to her Grandfather''s Smokey Mountain camping retreat. Here, she can make a living renting out the cabins without ever having to connect with another human being. Peace at last! - or so she thinks. Everything changes the morning she''s awakened by a voice inside her head - the voice of a little girl pleading for help. With the dreaded holiday only a couple of weeks away, and a snowstorm threatening, she''s suddenly catapulted into the midst of this strange child''s dilemma. Now, not only must Gemma deal with her own survival, but that of a little girl who reminds her all too much of her own lost child. More difficult still, she must deal with the confusing feelings that erupt when she''s forced into close contact with the child''s handsome father, the fiancé she lost so many years ago. How can Gemma possibly survive another Christmas Eve?
