All I wanted for Christmas was cocoa. Instead, I got kidnapped by an orc Santa. Visiting my sister for the winter holidays should be a joyous time. But all the tinsel, gingerbread, and mistletoe gives me a headache. Sitting out the festivities of the town's Winter Solstice Festival leads me to take a cat nap in the truck. Next thing I know, a growling orc—in a Santa hat!—is driving this truck through a blizzard! Now we're trapped at his place. Which wouldn't be so bad, if only his gaze didn't make me melt like Frosty. Too bad there's only one bed, and the temperature keeps dropping. Snowed In With the Orc is a short, fluffy, steamy novella that is part of the Monsters and Mistletoe shared author series. It features one grumpy orc and one grumpy, sassy woman, forced proximity, let's snuggle for warmth, a magical ornament, and a cozy small town (if she ever makes it back).
