Holiday Hearts & Haunts

A witch on a mission. A misunderstood monster. A curse that can only be broken in the heart of winter. Sable Thornwood has never feared the shadows of the Black Forest —but this year, they’re calling her name. Cursed by Baba Yaga to sever her fated bond, Sable’s last hope lies with the one creature mortals are warned never to seek: Krampus. Not the storybook fiend, but the ancient guardian with horns, fur, a wicked tongue, and a reputation as sharp as his claws. What she finds isn’t a monster.

Cursed by loneliness and bound to an ancient mountain, winter titan Brymir has spent centuries guarding a world that fears him. His power is vast, his heart fractured, and his destiny all but frozen— until a storm delivers someone he never expected. Elara Gray only wanted answers. A strange winter magic blooms under her skin, her dreams echo with a titan’s heartbeat, and the mountain calls her name. Searching for truth leads her straight into Brymir’s arms— and into a bond older than the peaks themselves. She’s human. He’s immortal. And their connection is impossible.

Amora Vale was born to mend broken hearts; until a curse stole her own. When a desperate ritual binds her to Dravenheart, a fallen god of love who no longer believes in mercy, Amora uncovers a truth more dangerous than any spell: her heart was never destroyed—only locked away. Hunted by Baba Yaga, trapped between ancient magic and a bond that refuses to be denied, Amora must choose whether reclaiming her heart is worth risking everything… including the god who might ruin her. He is heartless by choice. She is whole by defiance.

Death has walked beside her for years…but he has never spoken her name. Lenore Bellemere has always lived at the edge of things—between the living and the dead, the whispered and the forgotten. As the village grave witch, she tends to restless spirits and quiet endings, never expecting anything more than a life spent in solitude. Until the Warden begins to watch her. Morvain is ancient. Bound to the veil between life and death, he has guided countless souls into the beyond without question, without connection… without ever being seen. Until her. She does not fear him. She does not run.
