Monsters in My Bed

Some wounds, only a monster can heal. I've always hated Christmas. With a name like Chris Kringle, it's hard not to. It's only gotten worse since I've been back from the war. Christmas is supposed to be jolly, but for me, it's a grim reminder of past failures. I need to get away from it. To be somewhere quiet. To heal. When I wake up in the South Pole after an accident to a Krampus tending my wounds, it feels like the perfect opportunity to get some much-needed R&R. Yet this gentle giant is so achingly sweet, I can't help but fall for him, even though he's a monster. But another, more sinister monster may be lurking much closer to home, and if we don't hunt it down in time, this could be the last Christmas ever. Kissed by the Krampus is a holiday MM monster romance featuring a cinnamon roll monster and a veteran grappling with his PTSD. Contains mature themes.

We were supposed to protect the world from monsters, not become them. All I've ever wanted was to protect the people I love. That's why I joined the military's Elite Specimen Containment Unit. When I learned they were experimenting on sentient monsters, however, everything changed. Now, I have a new mission: protect a scaly winged monster named Bud and escort him to somewhere he'll be safe from my superiors. Yet, Bud's so sweet and perfect, I can't help but fall for him, even though I know it's too dangerous for us to be together. It'll be safer for us to go our separate ways, especially when we're being hunted. But I've only got so much willpower . . . Contains mature themes.

Forgive me, Father, for I'm about to sin . . . My life is a country song. I lost my abuela, my wife, my house, and my religion. After helping my two best friends find love, I'm broke, out of shape, and lonelier than ever. Until I find an injured winged monster in the church basement I'm remodeling. He's the most beautiful creature I've ever seen. Hurt and alone, he needs my help to find his missing halo. He also seems to think I'm destined to be his mate. I don't have the heart to tell him I'm straight . . . Well, straight-ish. But his himbo charm is growing on me and I don't know how to feel when he showers me with praise for every little thing. Being attracted to a man is new enough, but to a monster that looks like an angel? Seminary school never could've prepared me for this. Contains mature themes.

Save a dragon, ride a cowboy is about to become my new motto. After hearing about a dragon ranch and monster haven out in Wyoming, I set off on a road trip with my roommates and two goals: pet a dragon and live out my cowboy riding fantasy. There's just one problem: Hopper Meadows, the monstrous owner of the Jackalope Ranch. He's got a chip on his shoulder the size of Texas and seems to have it out for me in particular. Sparks fly the moment we meet, and not the good kind. Even though he hates me, I can't get him out of my head. Fantasizing about Hopper is the only thing keeping me sane after being cut off by my rich parents, and abandoned by my roommates. If I've got to be stuck in the middle of nowhere for a week, might as well enjoy the view, right? But there's trouble brewing on the ranch. When I find myself pulled into a vendetta thirty years in the making, and the mastermind behind it might just be the only thing Hopper and I have in common . . . Contains mature themes.

They say time heals all wounds. Well, I'm not getting any younger. My disciplinary file at ESCU is almost as thick as my personnel file, which is saying something since I've been working for them for more than twenty years. I do the jobs no one else wants, go places no one is supposed to go to deal with monsters that don't exist. After a while, you get a feel for how a mission's going to go, and I have a feeling this next one is going to be fifty shades of FUBAR. And not just because my new partner, Ziggy, is last night's one-night stand. Whom I may have accidentally married . . . He's a furry blue monster with big dreams and an even bigger heart. We're supposed to be locating an escaped monster and the AWOL soldier who broke him out. I can't afford to complicate our working relationship with feelings, especially given how my last relationship ended. For better or worse we're stuck together until I can figure out how to undo this, which is just as well considering everything I know about ESCU might be a lie. Contains mature themes.
