Summary

When Ryder Cassidy inherited the family movie theater, she revamps the downtrodden old theater into Chillerz Cinema, showing all scary movies, all day, even at Christmas. When Ryder walks into a supposedly empty theater at the end of the night before Christmas Eve only to find her high school crush has snuck inside all by her lonesome, she is not only peeved but pleasantly surprised.
 
Tori Frampton is home on winter break and escapes her family to the old theater downtown. Only it isn't so rundown anymore: flashy neon, an attached café, a gift shop, and a brand new owner, former classmate and school outcast Ryder Cassidy. Chillerz Cinema isn't the only one who's had a makeover while Tori was away at school -- Ryder's looking sexier than Tori has ever seen her before.
 
Once reunited, the former classmates from opposite sides of the tracks realize they have way more in common than they ever thought possible, including the sudden desire to spend the holidays alone ... together!

    Prince Francis of Sachs-Stormburg has two objectives. One: join the long line of suitors vying to become King Omar's next gentleman consort. Two: find out anything he can about the natural energy powering his kingdom, especially the fabled solar power which has him called the Solar Sultan across Europe.
    Francis arrives at King Omar's palace in Istanbul, and discovers much to his horror that all suitors must compete in a tournament of skills to win the king's favour. King Omar, meanwhile, is nowhere to be seen.
    When Francis takes refuge from the competition in the palace gardens, he meets a handsome man tending to the palace cats. Francis and the stranger strike up a friendship, which quickly develops into something more. He senses his new companion is hiding something, but Francis himself has not divulged who he truly is, either.
