Tobias's life has seemed like a series of terrible decisions followed by even worse consequences. He thought the move to Possum Hollow would be the right thing to do. Get his problems away from his mom and sisters, while taking care of his sick grandmother. If he was putting himself more in danger, that was his own fault. It was still for the best.
Instead, he's met a lot of surprising people and suddenly hope seems like something he could have again. After a lifetime of being trapped by the brutality of organized crime, is it really possible for him to get out?
Maybe if he could fall in love with the right person, for once, everything else could start turning around.

Santa's Wish
by Edie Montreux
Santa’s been granting wishes in the VIP lounge for over a century. It’s time for some wish fulfillment of his own.
I love my job, really, but lately it’s been … boring. The most interesting thing to happen in months is when a college student days from graduation marches into the bar to fix his virgin problem.
I turn him away, of course. I don’t do virgins or other vampires. Those are my rules.
Then, his friends ditch him without a phone or wallet and leave him at the mercy of the club’s vampires. I don’t know why I step up, but I can’t leave him there. I’m known for taking in strays, and that's all he is.
Or is he? Beneath Boz’s snarky exterior is a sweet and sensitive man. I never expected someone like him to turn my head, but he’s the closest I’ve come to my wish for a happy relationship since I became a vampire.
I’m not the only vampire interested in Boz, though. The empress wants to hire him (permanently, if you know what I mean), but some of her employees have other ideas. To get my greatest desire, I risk blowing my cover to the most dangerous vampire in the world.
What, you didn’t think Santa was my real name, did you?
Shroom for Improvement
by Jema Croft
Mushroom fae Claude Stinkhorn leads an extraordinarily boring life. He works as a conductor on Remy’s underground railway, lives alone in a windowless, basement apartment, and occasionally enjoys a moderately priced chai latte. He’s never been happier.
After the death of his absentee father, Claude inherits a house. But it’s no ordinary house. It’s a mansion, it’s sentient, it’s a pain in the ass, and Claude must perform an ancient magical ritual twice a year to keep it alive.
There are just two problems. One, nobody can tell Claude what the ritual involves. Not even the property’s motley crew of occupants. And two, Claude has always sucked at magic. He needs help from an expert …
Professor Sonny Daye has been working on the same mycology paper for the past few decades, but he’s not giving up. After all, his findings could eradicate famine and help save the planet. He knows with first hand research he’ll have it finished in no time. But first hand research means talking to a mushroom fae, and mushroom fae are a notoriously tight lipped and secretive species.
Luckily for Sonny, the perfect opportunity lands directly in his lap. Which is great news, and not in the least bit weird or suspicious …
A Daddy For Christmas 2: Nicky
by Denver Shaw
This Christmas, love takes the form of a Daddy who’ll give a boy the care and protection he craves.
Nicholas
I’ve spent the last six years putting my dreams on hold, raising my little brother Aiden after our mom died. Now he’s off to college, but it still feels like I’m carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders. Then I meet him—Markus Webber, the new doctor at the senior living facility where I work. He’s thoughtful and caring in a way I can’t let myself rely on… but when he calls me Nicky, something shifts inside me. Maybe for once, I don’t have to be the one holding everything together.
Markus
After my last relationship fell apart, I needed a fresh start. Taking over the elder care home in this small town seemed like the perfect escape. What I didn’t expect was Nicky. The care assistant has a smile that lights up the whole room, but he puts everyone else before himself. The more I’m around him, the more protective I feel, even though opening my heart again is terrifying. The matchmaking seniors at the home sure don’t help—they seem determined to push us together at every turn. But can a Daddy like me, who’s been through his share of heartache, really be what the stubborn boy needs? And does he even know what he’s looking for?
Bean
by Nora Phoenix & E.M. Lindsey
After my medical discharge from the Army due to a brain injury, I’ve had to reinvent myself. Not easy when I can’t even remember what I ate for breakfast.
Or the hot, older guy I went home with. Oops.
When I run into him a second time and hit him up as if we’ve never met before, Jarek’s a little insulted. I can’t exactly blame him. But when he learns my memory is shit, he seems flattered I’ve picked him up twice.
And he’s all in for hooking up again. And then again. Our chemistry is off the charts.
We’re just friends with benefits, nothing more. I want to take my time exploring who I am, and Jarek wants the happily ever after and white picket fence.
But the more time we spend together, the more I question if it’s really only friendship I want from him. I’m getting awfully attached. Could it be we want the same thing?
Bad Call
by Raquel Riley
One bad call can change your entire season.
​
Casey
The first night we met, he burned hotter than the sun for the handful of hours we spent in bed. How immature to be bitter that I never called him back.
​
The second time we met was on the ball field. I couldn’t decide if his bad calls were directed at my team or me. But if I didn’t play nice, the Muskrats had a zero chance of winning the College World Series.
​
I enjoyed his body, but his smart mouth made my blood boil. This might work if I could find something to stuff it with.
​
Baylor
Casey checked every one of my boxes. So what if he couldn’t stand me? I think he loved the tension as much as I did.
​
Besides our petty bickering and his obsession with the worst team in the MLB, we were perfectly matched. He was the first man I slept with. What would it take to make him the last?
Something Unavoidable
by Rory Maxwell
Izzy King has a reputation. He's the wild one. The fun one. The one who does what he wants. And if he’s a little broken under his fun-loving façade, well, that’s nobody’s business—especially not Split Rock Ranch’s long-time vet, Dr. Keegan Reid. That guy is the worst. Izzy keeps his distance—that is, until his boss decides they need to work together to care for a group of rescue horses. Whatever. Izzy will do what he does best and ignore the situation until it goes away.
Keegan Reid knows what he wants. He’s happy with his practice, his dogs, his cabin, and volunteering with the local animal rescue. What he doesn’t need is chaos—and Izzy King is chaos incarnate. Yet somehow, that doesn’t prevent him from picking up the verbal gauntlet every time Izzy throws it down. There’s something about Izzy that won’t let him turn the other cheek.
Izzy and Keegan might fight like cats and dogs—but everyone knows that high emotions often hide explosive chemistry. Keegan thinks they’d be a good fit if Izzy gave him a chance. But apparently, that old saying about leading a horse to water also applies to stubborn ranch hands. Izzy’s got a past that makes him prone to bolting, and Keegan needs to decide if he wants to tame another feral creature.
