The Krampus — Cassandra Chandler

The bigger they are, the harder they fall in love… Lord Snow, better known as the Krampus, doesn't have time for distractions. With his best friend, the Yule Cat, banished to the mortal realm and coming dangerously close to exile himself, he needs to get back in the Winter Queen's good graces and return to his duties as the Lord of Endless Snow. Exile soon becomes the least of Snow's worries after he meets Spring. Spring Broeker loves a challenge, and the enormous man in the extremely fine suit that she meets on Valentine's Day has whetted her appetite for more than the sweets offered at the Yuletide Bakery. After too many disappointments looking for a life partner, she's only hoping for some fun, but the more she digs through Snow's cold exterior to his warm heart, the more her own is on the line. Torn between his desire for power and control and the warmth of Spring's love threatening to melt the coldest of Yuletide hearts, Snow has to decide whether he is willing to fight against the threat of Jack Frost taking his place or surrender to Spring's gentle touch. Can the love of a human woman melt the heart of the fierce Krampus, or will this Valentine's Day become just another disappointment for a woman with a big heart? Main Content: Approximately 31,340 words, 155 (5.5 x 8.5) pages
