Spooky Christmas

Esper and her murder are all set to celebrate Christmas eve…if they can survive the housefire caused by Jet's baking attempt, the solstice ghost, and the influx of people who keep showing up! It's Christmas, necromancer style.

Author's Note:

Fed up with the usual tropes in romance and reverse harem, I wanted to read about characters who are more than the fainting female and alpha male cookie cutter stereotypes that saturate the genre. (There's nothing wrong with it, if you like that sort of thing, but it just got old for me!) People come in all shapes, sizes, personalities, and gender/sexual orientations—so when I pick up a book and have trouble telling the difference between the characters…that's a problem.

*The Reluctant Necromancer series is a sequence of novellas between 35,000-40,000 words in length. This short story is just over 11,000 words. While the main plot arc in each book will be resolved, there may be mild cliffhangers/segue into the next book with new issues arising.

*This author's characters are as flawed and damaged as real life—do not read if you are easily offended by talk of past trauma of any kind. This includes uncomfortable situations of any kind—sexual, physical, mental/emotional. (No explicit scenes of this nature, generally, but they will talk about what's happened in the past and it may be distasteful if you are easily triggered). This book specifically references past trauma in one of the characters.

*Contains mature adult content, including but not limited to: graphic sex, adult language (that means swearing, folks) and fictional situations with some gore and or action/violence.

*This is a reverse harem urban fantasy, and the author firmly believes love is love, and as such includes themes of: polyamory (multiple lovers), MF, MMF, MM, FF, and MMMFF love.
