Peppermint Prancer: A Kinship Cove Fun & Flirty Romance: Heartthrobs & Holidays, #2

By Ellis Leigh

No one ever said working with Santa was all reindeer games, and North Pole isn't the sort of place to find your mate…until it is. It's the holidays for our Kinship Cove friends, which means treats, hot cocoa, and kisses.

Being an elf in North Pole, Alaska, means one thing to me: baking to support my fellow elves who are responsible for making toys. When a fellow kitchen elf takes a tumble days before the big gift run, I'm assigned to the reindeer shifter side of town. Carb-loading is my specialty, after all. No way would I let the reindeer team fail after a solid year of work by elves and reindeer alike. I know my role—get in, bake, get out—but while delivering delightful pastries to the hungry sleigh-pullers, I run into a problem. One by the name of Prancer.

 

Yes, he's a reindeer shifter. Yes, he's an OG on the sleigh team. And yes, he's just as obsessed with me as I am with him. But each species has its rules, and everyone in North Pole knows we have to work together to pull off the Christmas run. Which means keeping the secret of our fated connection from everyone—elves, reindeer, Santa…

 

Even Prancer himself.

 

Christmas is coming whether we're ready or not…and it's going to be a battle to keep my ho ho ho on the down low low low.

Ellis Leigh

A storyteller from the time she could talk, USA Today bestselling author Ellis Leigh grew up among family legends of hauntings, psychics, and love spanning decades. Those stories didn’t always have the happiest of endings, so they inspired her to write about real life, real love, and the difficulties therein. From farmers to werewolves, store clerks to witches—if there’s love to be found, she’ll write about it. Ellis lives in the Chicago area with her husband, daughters, and a German Shepherd that refuses to leave her side. Ellis can also be found writing tropey, erotic shorts with her bestie Brighton Walsh as London Hale or taking her suspense into the contemporary world as Kristin Harte.
