A Christmas Wedding in Mayhem: You're cordially invited to the wedding of the century! Please join bride-trying-not-to-be-a-zilla Hennessy O'Halloran and her prince-in-shining-snow-boots as they finally say, "I do." Unless a rogue wedding planner and a blizzard that takes out the entire Midwest can stop them, these two will get married on Christmas. The town of Mayhem will make sure of it.

She's mine, every last broken, beautiful bit of her. I’ve always been different. Always been the nice one. The misunderstood one. Everything changed when I found her, the woman I've been waiting for. Hoping for. The one. Then, she left. Now she's back, and she's nothing like I remember. She’s broken. Harboring dark secrets that beg to be exposed. And that's fine, because I've got some sordid secrets of my own. It’s time for her to submit to the one thing she truly desires. Me. All of me.

I’m an intelligent and independent woman with a fantastic career. My personal life is perfect. No attachments or commitments. I know firsthand there is no such thing as “happily ever after” and I’m okay with that. I love everything about men—their broad shoulders, bulging biceps, and chiseled jawlines. I love when they come and especially when they go. I’m living my best life. At least I thought I was until the day a six foot, green eyed buffoon who wouldn’t take no for an answer knocked on my door needing a place to stay. Doug Truman is an unwanted entity that I’m forced to endure.

Can lust at first sight turn into happily ever after? I’m a bad boy, or so everyone thinks. Women assume I’ll show them a good time and then walk away. But I want more. I want to find my queen. One look at her and I know she’s the one. Just when I think everything’s perfect, her fear takes her away from me. But when tragedy strikes, there’s no way I’m passing up a second chance to make her mine. Is it possible to fall even harder for her once I know the truth?

After finally finding the fur-ever home she's always wanted, a witch blows into town, promising to reveal the bloody past of Giselle's birth and the circumstances that led the little werewolf to end up in the foster care system to begin with. Hot on the witch's trail, another pack of wolves is on the hunt for revenge, and will accept nothing less than her death in retribution for the havoc she's wrought on them.

I work hard and party harder. Women come and go and I’m happy to show then the door when their time is up. The moment my eyes land on her I’m captivated. There’s only one place she’s spending this New Year's Eve, in my bed. But what if she’s not like all the others? What if one night isn’t enough? I’m falling for a woman, a stranger who’s too young for me but I can’t resist a taste.

After my wife died, I never expected to fall in love again, let alone with her much younger sister. Elle's too young for me, though.

They called me a freak. They called me a loser. They tormented me and made my life a living nightmare when all I had ever wanted was to be left alone. And five years ago, after a lifetime of being bullied and harassed, of enduring more pain and trauma than any man could handle, that's exactly what I set out to do. I left the only home I'd ever known to lock myself behind the cemetery gates and care for the only people who have ever given me the peace I craved—the dead.
