The moment I’ve been waiting for. Christmas on Megelle Island is the biggest event of the year, and somehow I've been hired to plan it all: parties, activities, festivals, and the Christmas Eve ball at the palace. So what if I'm a last minute substitute because the old party planner got run over by a reindeer? So what if the King and Queen ask me to also plan their son’s engagement party within six days? So what if the cottage I rented was accidentally double booked and now I have an ancient, brooding vampire breathing down my neck every day? None of that matters. If I succeed, this job will make my career skyrocket…but if I fail to satisfy the King and Queen then I could find myself blacklisted and out of a job.It's make or break it time. Nothing is going to stand in my way.Especially not the sharp-tongued, sapphire-eyed Lexington Prescott who smells like lavender and snow. Does he like me? No. Do I like him? Not one bit. Does his scowl give me butterflies? Definitely not. I'm a professional. I can pull this off, I just need to ignore this passion a little bit longer...after all, what could possibly go wrong? less

A merry mated matrimony…All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth. Well, okay, literally speaking I want these two legs I’m standing on to be permanent. I want my scales to not pop up if it rains or if someone spills their drink on me. I want a house on land and a pet that has fur instead of two rows of razor sharp teeth. I’ve always felt like a crab out of her shell except when I’m on land. Except sirens can’t control their shifting... moreA merry mated matrimony…All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth.

A present under the wrong tree…I stopped believing in Santa Claus and happily-ever-afters when I lost my parents…so ten years ago I stopped trying.

I have no family, no friends, just my first ever boyfriend who works more than I do and in three months barely even knows me... moreA present under the wrong tree…I stopped believing in Santa Claus and happily-ever-afters when I lost my parents…so ten years ago I stopped trying.
