“The thought of you dating another man makes me want to punch through a wall. You’re magnetic . ” I signed up for the new Bone-R app for monster dating thinking I’d get a fun one-night-stand out of the deal.

The old tower in the woods is haunted…. I only wanted to see if there was any truth to our small town’s scary stories—to satisfy my curiosity and forget all about my miserable lack of Christmas plans, all in one swoop. What I didn’t plan on is the dangerous snowstorm or my bad luck, nor freezing half to death in the middle of the forest because I twisted my ankle. When a demonic-looking, winged monster lands right in front of me, I realize it might not be cold that kills me, after all... moreThe old tower in the woods is haunted….

Now they’re saying I’m the third roost mate they’ve been searching for. They want to court me, nest with me, and keep me forever. But they’re monsters, mythical creatures I didn’t even know existed. How on earth is this going to work? Snowed in with the Gargoyles is a cozy monster story with lots of spice, fated mates, and size difference issues. You’ll love it if you enjoy romance in which the heroine doesn’t have to choose between her heroes and stories where spice is the plot. ***.
