I let her go once—and it damn near destroyed me.
Watching Lila walk away was the hardest thing I’ve ever done,
but back then I was too dangerous, too close to losing the beast inside me.
I told myself I was protecting her.
Truth is, I’ve been half-alive ever since.

Now she’s back—standing in the snow, cheeks flushed, eyes bright with the same light that used to undo me.
The mountain’s buried in white, the storm howling down from the ridge…
and all I can think about is pulling her into my arms and never letting go.

She still doesn’t know what I am, or why I disappeared.
But the moment our eyes meet, the years fall away.
The bond snaps tight. The fire roars back to life.
And when the blizzard traps us together, there’s no hiding anymore.

This time, I’m not walking away.
Not from her. Not from what we are.
She’s mine to protect.
Mine to claim.
And this Christmas, I’ll stop at nothing to make her mine forever.

A steamy, high-heat, fated-mates Christmas romance with an obsessed, possessive, grizzly-shifter hero, a snarky heroine who deserves the world, and enough snowy coziness, found family vibes, and second-chance magic to melt even the coldest winter night!
