Tied with a Bow

Four talented romance authors team up with lively novellas that put a seductive, supernatural spin on the holidays. A fallen angel meets a woman he saved from death as a child in Virginia Kantra's "Upon a Midnight Clear," the Regency-set prequel to her "Children of the Sea" series. In a world filled with half-human vampires (ventala), demons, muses, archangels, and assorted folk, a young journalist rescues a time traveler and is plunged into a miraculous adventure in Kimberly Frost's "First Light," a novella that launches her new paranormal series. Unaccustomed to interacting with humans, a member of the Lupi spends the holidays with his mate's human Wiccan family with interesting results in Eileen Wilks's "Human Error." A Coyote Breed enforcer must claim his mate when her actions put her in danger in Leigh's latest addition to her popular "Breed" series, "An Inconvenient Mate."
