Summary

Bixby "Bix" Crane finally has a boyfriend to spend the holidays with after meeting Liam over the summer. But as each holiday passes, starting with Halloween, it becomes increasingly clear that Liam just isn't that into him.
Left alone at Thanksgiving, Bix reaches out to the man he's always loved, Wyatt Kojowski, who also happens to be the widower of Bix's late cousin, Carl. The three were fast friends in high school and though both cousins loved Wyatt, Carl married Wyatt in the end. Wyatt is alone now too and he invites Bix to Thanksgiving with him.
After the best Thanksgiving he's had in years, Bix returns home determined to get Liam to spend Christmas with him, but Liam has other ideas. Finally realizing the truth, Bix ends things with Liam and happily accepts Wyatt's timely invitation to spend Christmas with him.
As one door closes for Bix, is another one opening? Or a window maybe. But if he finally opens up to Wyatt about always loving him, will that window end up being a bright window for Christmas?

    Humans off the paved road are nothing but shifter food.
    
    
    Romeo Gallo has to flee town. The problem is that the only place he can think of going is an old ranch he's inherited from his uncle, and it's off the paved road. Humans are fair game if they're off the paved road, and being eaten by shifters has never been on the list of things Romeo wants to experience.
    
    
    Ciar Moonlight is a panther shifter, perfectly happy living a laidback life on the ranch. He wants nothing to do with humans. But one night, one moves into the house, and Ciar finds it hard to stay away.
    
    
    Romeo soon learns he isn't the only one living on the ranch. Shifters and vampires keep popping up, and since no one has eaten him yet, he'd go as far as to call a few of them his friends. And there is a panther reluctant to leave his bedroom, so maybe one is even more than a friend. Ciar might not have wanted to get to know a human, but now when Romeo is living in his territory, he's Ciar's to keep, right? So if someone tries to get rid of Romeo, it's Ciar's right to defend him. Right?

    When Elijah Harrow returns to Lupin Hollow to settle his estranged uncle's estate, he expects a short trip, not a confrontation with the ghosts of his past, and definitely not a reunion with Caleb Morgan, the boy he once loved and the wolf he never understood. The Hollow, a forgotten town buried in Oregon's dense woods, is alive with magic and memory. And beneath the ash tree that marks its heart, something ancient is waking. Elijah's blood carries secrets he never asked for, and Caleb's bond might be the only thing standing between salvation and ruin.
    As lust rekindles into something deeper and the lines between man, wolf, and myth blur, Elijah must face the legacy that chased him away and the power surging in his veins. With a rogue pack threatening to breach the Hollow and an ancient pact unraveling, the only way out is through blood, bond, and the forest's unspoken law. Will Elijah become the savior of the Hollow? Or the monster it's been waiting for?

    What’s worse than being snowed in with your ex? Literally nothing. 
    Initially, the only thing Marshall and Marshall had in common was a name. Marshall (aka Data) lived his life around spreadsheets, while Marshall (aka Marsh) was an F5 tornado of chaos. Yet for eight years, they were madly in love. Until Marsh abruptly ended things with a half-baked excuse. 
    Six months later, Data gets a text from Marsh out of the blue: They need to clean out their cabin in Maine and sell it ASAP. He can make it through one more weekend with the man who broke his heart. 
    Marsh loved adding squiggles to the straight lines of his boyfriend. If only he could’ve lived up to the potential Data saw in him. If only he didn’t feel like he was one big miscalculation on Data’s ledger. Saying goodbye to Marshmallow Mountain will be the final tie to sever, even though he still pines for his number-crunching teddy bear. 
    But when a massive snowstorm traps them in their small cabin for days, they’re forced to confront hard truths about their breakup…as well as resist the sweltering heat raging between them. 
    These boys might be headed for a second act, but only if they can make it off Marshmallow Mountain.
