Publisher's summary
La emocionante historia de una joven boticaria londinense en plena epidemia de la peste en el siglo XVII.
Londres, 1665. Susannah, hija de un boticario viudo, ha ayudado desde niña a su padre y se ha convertido en toda una experta en remedios naturales. El aroma resinoso de la lavanda, la esencia del romero, el regaliz y la trementina han impregnado siempre el ambiente que respiraba. Cuando su padre vuelve a casarse con una mujer mucho más joven que él, que además tiene tres hijos, su universo se derrumba.
En plena epidemia de la peste bubónica, la propuesta de matrimonio de un encantador amigo de la familia, Henry Savage, parece la mejor solución para huir de su situación. Pero a medida que la epidemia avanza por toda la ciudad, su marido resulta ser alguien distinto de lo que ella esperaba. Susannah necesitará todo su coraje y su pasión para salvarse de la tragedia, personal y colectiva, y deberá luchar por encontrar su sitio en un mundo demasiado complejo.

Décadas más tarde, a miles de kilómetros de distancia, en Nueva York, dos extraños se reconocen a través de una mirada. El destino les otorga a los amantes una nueva oportunidad.

Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

Surely she can give her favorite author moral support over the holiday break and get the manuscript to her boss at Tea & Sympathy Publishing in time for the new year. When Abi shows up on Ms. Ziegler’s doorstep bearing holiday treats, she’s met by the author’s handsome grandson Dov, who reveals a startling plot twist. His grandmother isn’t able to finish the book and Dov promised he’d complete it so fans won’t be disappointed—a task that’s harder than he ever imagined.

Story
Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

He’s fixed on making this a Christmas Evie will remember forever. If she gives him a chance.

Story
Hockey coach Ashley Jaswal doesn't take nonsense from anyone … except her overbearing and superstitious family. They believe she's a good luck charm for her brother Jas, the newest Vancouver Canucks draft pick, forcing Ash to attend all his games as he rises up the NHL ranks, sacrificing her personal life (not that she has one—who decided hockey season needed to be 10 months long anyway?). Ash also clashes with Jas’s teammate, Canucks captain Devin Snyder.
