Christmas With The Grizzly
Ariana Hawkes
Watching Lila walk away was the hardest thing I’ve ever done,
but I was too dangerous back then, 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 full of 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 vanished.
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 pretending 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.
This is a steamy insta-love romance, featuring an obsessed, possessive hero. If you like fated-mates romances, full of off-the-charts attraction, you'll love Holt and Lila's story. Second chances, grumpy/sunshine, a cozy winter setting, tons of found family feels, and lots and lots of Christmas Magic!!
