He saves her, protects her, and will kill for her.

When a first date turns violent, Rhiannon finds herself face-to-face with a masked stranger who steps out of the winter dark with silent purpose and unsettling devotion.


People whisper about the Reaper, a vigilante who hunts men who prey on women. To Rhiannon, he quickly becomes something far more dangerous. He is the shadow watching, the gifts left at her door, the presence she feels every time her heartbeat skips.

Then she meets Darcy Reed, a gentle golden retriever of a man who listens, cooks for her, and makes her feel safe. But safety begins to unravel when the same shadows keep circling her path.

Someone is following her.
Someone is choosing her.
Someone has decided she is his.

When Rhiannon tries to run from the danger closing in, she is pulled into a darker truth. Devotion becomes chains. Obsession becomes salvation. And surrender becomes the only path that lets her stand beside the man who would tear the world apart for her.


Blood and Mistletoe is a dark Christmas romance featuring a vigilante serial killer hero, stalking, captivity, fierce possessiveness, powerful devotion and obsession, and a heroine who refuses to break. A guaranteed happily ever after waits on the other side.
