The Heart of St. Nick is a steamy, forced proximity, small-town M/M holiday romance with a slight age gap between a bowtie and suspender-wearing good guy and an emotionally-stunted man with a cold heart just waiting to be melted.

Summary: Beau Lethe, one of the original Hellhounds created by Lord Hades, enjoyed his visit with packmate Java and his new mate well enough, but there was something tugging at his hound and soul sending him back to New York and within days of his return, he found out what it was - the sweetest little Arctic wolf shifter anyone could ever hope to meet, all wrapped up like a blanket burrito. The only issue was, Beau was sure his mate would reject him when he realized Beau wasn't like the other hellhounds. Prince Blue Watson insisted on everyone calling him Blue. His first name stemmed from his mother's dreams, not an actual title, and his real last name was unpronounceable. Sleeping rough for six years, mostly in his wolf form, Blue did his best to fend for himself on the city streets, swapping smiles for change from strangers. Until he smiled at the wrong person and ended up wrapped in a blanket and suspended from a ceiling. Even he had to admit things were looking a little dark, until he heard a sexy deep voice sitting at the table underneath him. Blue's mom had a lot to answer for, giving him such a misleading name, and Beau's got a few problems of his own between keeping his secrets from Lord Hades, and trying to keep his precious mate safe. Cops that aren't cops. A disappointed god. Parents with weird ideas. And let's not forget Jake, the grumpy bear. If Beau and Blue are to have an HEA, they are going to have to work with their friends to make it happen. Precious Blue can be read as standalone although reading Collar and Scruff (currently a free read on Your Book Boyfriend's Boyfriend giveaway 2022) and Better Than Sweets (Available on Amazon and wide) will help you get an understanding of the world and the back story of the hellhounds. Please note that while most of the plot lines in the story are resolved by the time you reach the epilogue, there is one short plot line that was introduced in the last few chapters that will be resolved in the following book. The epilogue also introduces the next hellhound in this series.
