Editorial Director Vicky Blunden has acquired World All Language rights in ebook, paperback and audio in a new Christmas rom-com from bestselling author Kristen Bailey. Bailey’s two previous books with Storm – Sex Ed and Five Gold Rings – have been huge hits with readers and are both Amazon chart bestsellers.

We Three Kings is a hilarious and emotional festive story of inadvertent fake-dating and finding true love. When IT manager Maggie agrees to spend Christmas accompanying three of her geeky but lovable colleagues to family events, she gets more than she bargained for; from accidentally becoming  a bridesmaid at a wedding, to getting caught up in a fox hunt dressed in a reindeer onesie, to falling in love on the London Eye…

Bailey says,

“I was blown away by the success and response to Five Gold Rings so I was thrilled when Storm asked me to write another Christmas book for them! Bring on more of the jingle bells! I am hugely grateful to my editor, Vicky, and to all at Storm. It’s been a brilliant year working with them.”

Blunden says,

“Readers can’t get enough of Kristen’s unique brand of hilarious romantic comedy, which is genuinely laugh-out-loud funny, full of sizzling chemistry, and with such heart and soul. I fall in love with her characters every time and it’s a total pleasure to be drawn into their adventures. I’m already counting down the days to Christmas!”

We Three Kings will publish on 14 October 2024. For more information on Kristen Bailey, follow her on X and Facebook or visit her at her website.
