† WHERE TO BUY †

For centuries, Bridget O’Shaughnessy has watched humans from the edges of their world. As a Pooka, a shapeshifter and trickster from the Otherworld, she thrives on chaos and mischief. Yet when the weakening veil between worlds hurls her into the Colorado wilderness during a brutal November storm, everything shifts. Barefoot, disoriented, and rapidly losing the magic she needs to survive, Bridget stumbles into Pinewood Falls, a postcard-perfect small town where Christmas arrives early and secrets never stay buried. For a creature of wild magic, this cozy holiday haven is a nightmare, but it is also her only lifeline.

Liam Hartley, the town’s beloved veterinarian and volunteer fire chief, refuses to ignore the wild‑eyed stranger he finds stumbling through the woods behind his clinic. Draped in centuries‑old finery and speaking in riddles, Bridget is a puzzle he can’t resist. He tells himself he’s only offering shelter, but one act of kindness shatters the quiet order of his life.

To return home, Bridget must bury every instinct that makes her a Pooka. Passing as human shields her from the town’s curious eyes, but each day she denies her nature, her power drains faster. Worse, the more time she spends under Liam’s protective watch, the less she wants to leave.

As the winter solstice nears, her fragile balance collapses. A messenger from the Otherworld delivers an ultimatum: return by solstice or lose her magic forever. With time slipping away and Liam closing in on her truth, Bridget faces an impossible choice. Will she reclaim the immortal chaos that shaped her, or risk everything for a love she never expected?

MISTLETOE & MISCHIEF brings small town charm, paranormal magic, and  romance wrapped in Christmas lights.

BRIDGET O’SHAUGHNESSY

Bridget has lived for centuries, but she wears the face of a woman in her early thirties with pale, luminous skin, wild curls, and green eyes that glow when her magic stirs. She is curious, mischievous, and completely untamed. In truth, she is a Pooka: sometimes a woman with fox ears and a tail, sometimes a flicker of shadow, and sometimes a black mare with silver in her mane.

She loves chaos and unvarnished truth. She fears losing her magic, but she fears wanting a human life even more.

LIAM HARTLEY 

Liam Hartley is thirty-four, standing six-foot-one with practical muscle, dark hair touched with gray, and warm hazel eyes that crinkle when he smiles. As the veterinarian and firefighter everyone in Pinewood Falls calls when something goes wrong, he is kind, steady, and reliable to a fault.

He is built from real work, carrying old scars from fires and unruly horses, a quiet ache, and a life shaped by duty instead of desire. He loves quiet nights, good whiskey, and the woods behind his home, but he carries the weight of the town on his shoulders while hiding a deep, unadmitted loneliness.

Not sure you’re completely ready for this absolutely twisted story that is Thirst! We start off with FMC Sidney who is a dhampir who grew up in the House of the Sanguine. Because she was half vampire and half human she was outcast and abused. We have moments throughout the story where Sidney will have flashbacks of her childhood. Because of this we experience her journey of childhood and what she endured. We journey through the story as she meets up with her betrothed and an old childhood friend. Sidney joined the trials to become queen and what she as well as the other contestants have to go through will keep you on the edge of your seat. I absolutely love Sidney and her personality. The story is packed with action, drama, and suspense. It will have you on the edge and ends in a cliffhanger that has me absolutely excited to see what is going to happen next. This is absolutely a great read.

This is the first time I've read anything by this author and I am now obsessed. I will be looking for more of her books. Thirst sucked me in immediately and I could not put it down. The plot was amazing and the men were delicious. I can't decide who of her devotions are my fav but I feel like Noir is definitely going to keep things interesting. This book ended way before I was ready and I can not wait to read the next one. If you love a badas* female, with a small harem of men who are protective and completely devoted you will love this book!
