Shadow of YuletideDraugr Undead Monster Romance

I never expected an amulet to flip my life sideways. One minute I’m stealing midnight photos of spirals in the bark, and the next the bronze disc is warm in my palm and a man from a legend is standing in the snow offering to keep me safe. I wanted a story; I didn’t expect to become part of one.

Thalion’s world has been quiet for longer than any human remembers. When the relic answers to Bethany’s blood, his duty suddenly has a heartbeat. Together they learn old music and older bargains—the flute, the boundary stones, the spirals that guide the living and the lost. But power attracts hunger. A rival armed with modern rune-iron and a draugr’s grudge seeks the burial ground’s inner vault, forcing a solstice contest that will burn everything away if they fail.

This is our story of keeping—of remembering what the dead ask for, and what the living must give. It’s about the danger of curiosity, the cost of protection, and the stubborn, soft miracle of two people who refuse to let the world lose what it loves.

This is a book for those who love tortured protectors finding love and redemption.
