Elf Yourself: A Christmas romance novella
‘Tis the season for mistakes, mischief… and ridiculously hot elves.
My one-night stand walked out on me. Before I even got off.
Yep. Not even a festive fireworks finale. Just… lukewarm candy cane energy and a disappearing act.
So imagine my shock when the man responsible for leaving me high and dry shows up at my brand-new job—
wearing elf suspenders, jingling when he walks, and smiling at me like he’s ready to deliver a whole damn North Pole happily ever after.
Austin is giving full “hallmark, love at first sight” vibes. Big eyes. Bigger grin. Like he wants to unwrap me under the mistletoe.
Which is hilarious… because I distinctly remember him not unwrapping much of anything the night before.
And the worst part?
He’s acting like he’s never seen me before.
Like he doesn’t remember it at all.
I could move on if he just owned up to it
But every time I hint about our unimpressive holiday special, he just looks confused—like he wasn’t there for the whole disappointing sleigh ride.
Now he’s pursuing me like I’m the last present under the tree. I’m avoiding him like he’s expired eggnog.
Santa must be laughing, because the longer we work together, the more I think Christmas has it out for me.
He left her high and dry. Now? He wants her under the mistletoe.

A short and sweet holiday novella
Loved this book! Full of delightful Christmas puns, hilarious workplace drama and a bit of spice. Also adored the Fly By Boys cameo! A fun little read for the festive season.
