After losing her true mate, she was sure that her life’s purpose was to make sure Bear Mountain Tree Farm ran like clockwork, and she’d become the mother of the business she thought of as family. She almost didn’t go on the vacation her bosses insisted she take during the slowest week of the business year. But when she finally chose a remote cabin retreat in the mountains of Colorado, she was determined to truly unplug from her world of taking care of everyone else. The last thing she expected or wanted was to end up with someone taking care of her. She definitely didn’t want to fall in love. Nick didn’t intend to become a loner when he lost his true mate and took a job at a remote cabin resort in Colorado to heal his heart. He used to dream about the slim chance of finding a new true mate once he got over the loss of his first one. But as the years passed him by without a new love, he grew content with spreading joy at Lichenridge Cabins. When he discovers his only guest for the week of Christmas is his second chance at love, he can’t believe his luck, but Marjorie doesn’t feel the same way. It takes an avalanche trapping the two in a small cabin for Nick to get the opportunity to help her rediscover the joy of true-mate love. But can he dig through the ice to open up her heart?

Book excerpt: THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER 'A fast-paced, riveting read, with writing that leaps off the page and one of the most compelling magic systems I've encountered in years, this is a must for fantasy fans!' Natasha Ngan, Girls of Paper and Fire A MAN MARKED BY MAGIC. A WOMAN MARKED BY HER PAST. On the other side of the Shadowpass, rebellion is brewing and refugees have begun to trickle into the city at the edge of the world. Looming high on the cliff is The Nest, a fortress full of mages who offer protection, but also embody everything the rebellion is fighting against: a strict hierarchy based on magic abilities. When Isha arrives as a refugee, she attempts to fit in amongst the other mages, but her Kher tattoo brands her as an outcast. She can't remember her past or why she has the tattoo. All she knows is that she survived. She doesn't intend to give up now. Tatters, who wears the golden collar of a slave, knows that this rebellion is different from past skirmishes. He was once one of the rebels, and technically, they still own him. He plans to stay in the shadows, until Isha appears in his tavern. He's never seen a human with a tattoo, and the markings look eerily familiar . . . As the rebellion carves a path of destruction towards the city, an unlikely friendship forms between a man trying to escape his past and a woman trying to uncover hers, until their secrets threaten to tear them apart. The Collarbound hooks from the opening page and will appeal to fans of magical, brink-of-war settings, like that of The Poppy War and The City of Brass.
