It’s December in Poplar Falls and the small town is thrumming with activity and alight with festive cheer. Merry Hearts features all your favorite couples coming together in one story to bring you joy, happiness, and a little Christmas hometown joy.

In a world that has forgotten its colors, a velveteen rabbit with a patched-up heart holds onto a single dream: to become Real. For a hundred silent years, Alistair has watched the grey, empty world from behind the glass of a broken storefront. His only companions are the Echoes—faint whispers of human emotion that grant him consciousness. His only hope is the legend of The Last Cradle, a mythical place that can turn a toy into a living being. His lonely existence is interrupted by the arrival of Kael, a clockwork fox, a Sentinel bound by a forgotten duty.

The Whispering Shore follows a fox who asks too many questions, a silent owl with a past, a ribbon-wrapped otter who juggles light, a wounded albatross relearning the sky, and a tortoise with a ticking heart. As they chase half-spoken whispers across foggy beaches, river valleys, and echoing hills, each one begins to mend not only their wings—but the way they see themselves.
