What happens when two coworkers are trapped in a Magic Christmas Cabin determined to make them act out romance tropes? What can you do when you work with the woman of your dreams…but you know you can never have her? That’s Klaus’s predicament. He’s a grumpy Beast Kindred warrior assigned to be the protector of a curvy little human named Kelli. He thinks his gorgeous coworker is out of reach…until the two of them get assigned to stay in a couple’s Christmas Cabin designed by alien researchers interested in holiday mating habits. Kelli has no idea her huge, grumpy Kindred Protector is in love with her. But she’s about to find out when they get to the cabin where Holiday Romance is the priority. Once they get snowed in, all bets are off and the spicy shenanigans begin! What happens when the cabin makes them kiss under the mistletoe or forces them to take a shower together? How about when the couch disappears and there’s only one bed? And that’s not even counting the naughty outfits the cabin provides them to wear. Will Kelli and Klaus survive being Trapped in the Christmas Cabin or will their work relationship turn into something a lot more intimate? You’ll have to read this grumpy/sunshine, coworkers to lovers, spicy sci-fi romance novella to find out! Author's Note—this little novella is the first in my new series of Kindred Tales Spicy Shorts. Sometimes I have an idea that isn’t long enough to be a whole novel, but I want to write it anyway. And I know that sometimes you just want a short, spicy book that doesn’t take a week to read. I hope you’ll enjoy this new series which I’ll add to whenever I have one of those short ideas. And if you have an idea you think would make a great spicy short, come find me on FB or Insta—I love to talk to readers!
