Here's Ashlynn Mills's "Stalking Around the Christmas Tree." It's part of the multi-author series The Naughty List.
["Henry
My life had finally started going in the right direction. I started selling out of my art pieces online left and right, I got invites to art shows and during my first event, my boyfriend got down on one knee and proposed.
I had everything, until one wrong turn during a snowstorm landed me alone in a my new cabin during the holiday season and needing to rely an app just to decorate a Christmas tree. The Army vet working the first night I use it is more than happy to assist me whenever I call on him. Even when I get snowed in and think someone may be trying to get inside. Its almost like he's right there with me when I need help navigating through each room and making sure every window is locked.
The more We talk, the more I start to think he actually might be, and maybe no one is actually trying break in anymore because they're already inside. He's already inside."]
Huey the pig!!! D: That’s all. He deserved mentioning. :D
These two were nothing like I pictured. Henry was sweet but he was also sassy and assertive when he needed to be and not entirely innocent. Raf was less serial killer stalker and more sleepwalking his way through PTSD not-therapist-sanctioned therapy while trying his best to not.
They got what they deserved: Christmas magic and a HEA. The other guys got what they deserved too: unaliving.
Trigger Warnings: MC with PTSD from being in the military, light mention of past SA (no details on page), blind MC who was in a terrible accident that's on page, cheating spouse, stalking without trying to, nonconsensual drugging, an almost assault scene toward the end, some unaliving, and more.
