Mated for the Holiday by Courtney Corlew

A fated avalanche. A week with the Alpha. One discovery that changes everything.

When Junie Watts finds herself stranded in a snowstorm, she never imagined her rescuer would be the very creature she’s been told to fear: a brooding, dark-haired werewolf shifter. After three years without a break, Junie is forced to confront her work-life balance—and maybe, just maybe, her own desires.

Silas Woodfield has always put his pack first, but the arrival of a sassy, curly-haired human threatens that. Between being spellbound to never have a mate and taking over the entire North, Silas can’t afford distractions. Still, when he insists Junie stay in his cabin for her safety, their snowed-in week turns into something neither of them expected.

As rogue packs close in, Silas is more convinced than ever that claiming a mate would be a mistake. Unfortunately for him, Junie is determined to change their fate.

Mated for the Holiday is a cozy, medium-heat, shifter romance. Tropes include: snowed in, strangers to lovers, and fated mates. This is a companion novel to Hexed for the Holiday, a witchy, paranormal romance. Perfect for fans of the grumpy banter in Mate by Ali Hazelwood, the small-town feel of Lovelight Farms by B.K. Borison, or the thrill of encountering the unknown in Ice Planet Barbarians by Ruby Dixon.
