Nothing good happens at Christmas.

A lifetime of disappointment has hardened Emma. Not even the warmth of the holiday season can melt the ice surrounding her heart. When she discovers an orc hiding in her barn, she’s prepared for the worst.

Hal is on the run from something and has many secrets. He’s huge, fierce, and covered in scars, but there’s a vulnerability in his eyes that softens her. He claims he has gaps in his memory, but how much of that is true and how much has he chosen to forget?

Emma doesn’t know how far she can trust the massive green orc. Against her better judgement, she offers him sanctuary on her secluded farm.

With powerful people on the hunt for Hal, is Emma safe? Is her heart?

Mistletoe is the third book in the Monsters of the Nexus series. While it can be read alone, Hal and Emmas story follows events in Blackthorn. No cheating and a HEA, because thats how we do.
