Sail away with a holiday shifter romance... Michele has lived most of her life knowing she's prophesied to be a sacrifice for her coven. Certain she's destined for an early death, she's been saving money for her dad and living with a string of one or two-night stands-no mate for her. No use planning a future she doesn't have. Now she can't wait to get away for a solo Christmas cruise and steer clear of her happily mated friends and family. Ex-soldier and bear shifter Granger is hoping his carpenter contract gig on the Dark Wing cruise ship will turn into a full-time job so he can spend more time with his 5-year-old daughter. After losing his father to the shifter widow illness, he's made an oath to never mate and risk leaving his little girl alone. Fate brings Michele and Granger together, so they decide to enjoy the time they have with each other before going their separate ways. No harm no foul, right? Except fate has more than a fun cruise in store for them. A sexy and heartwarming story about love, family and dedication-a perfect mix (or cocktail) for the holidays! This is book one in a series of full-length standalones. Cuddle up with this steamy read and sail away for Christmas. HEA and no cliffhanger!
