Can a horned alien warrior and an isolated woman grant two children their holiday wish for a family?
Jaelle is lonely. Ostracized by the village, like her mother and grandmother before her, she poses as an old witch in order to eke out a meager living selling herbal remedies to people who don't want to admit they need her help. When children start disappearing from the village, she is determined to find an answer to the riddle. She doesn't expect to find a massive, horned alien - one who sees through all her disguises.
Since crash-landing on K.R.S Three, Commander Krampusarian D'Marchandar spends his time working on his ship and secretly observing the other inhabitants. During his explorations, he discovers a strange, beautiful female. It is an impossible attraction - but when he sees her treatment at the hands of the other villagers, he decides she is his to protect.
Book Review: I really enjoyed this story. It was short fast paced but intriguing and engaging. It was a unique take on the story of Krampus. This evil spirit is not a spirit but an alien and not so much evil as down right smexy. Krampusarian becomes fascinated by Jaelle a lonely young women who lives on the outskirts of the village below where he crash landed. When Jaelle is attacked by one of the village men, Krampus misguidedly kidnaps one of the village children thinking it will be a fitting revenge on the man. The boy then convinces him to kidnap his sister. When Jaelle finds out the children are missing she ventures into a snow storm to search the mountain to find them. Of course you can see where this is going so I'm not going to give any spoilers.
I enjoyed how they characters came together it was a lighthearted, read with a touching ending and just the right amount of sexiness'. It was a nice holiday read.
