Monsters, Magic & Mistletoe: The Pull of the Paranormal Romance Anthology
November 25, 2025
Fill Your TBR List With These Red-Hot Monster Romance Anthologies for the Holidays Paranormal romance has always had a special place in readers’ hearts: the thrill of the otherworldly, the dangerous, the unknown—all wrapped up in sizzling chemistry and often set against dramatic or eerie backdrops. Monster romances push that even further, and holiday settings often amplify the contrast: winter cold, holiday cheer, family tensions, cozy nights by firelight—mixed with cryptids under the tree, shifters under the mistletoe, or Krampus in the snow. It’s a fertile ground for both naughty and nice. Spotlight: A Very Cryptid Christmas A Very Cryptid Christmas (2022) is an anthology of nine short romance tales featuring cryptids and mythic creatures in holiday settings. The stories are steamy, sexy, playful, and so much fun—each story features a different creature. Want to seduce a Sasquatch? Wrangle a Jackalope rancher? Cozy up with the Squonk? It’s all in there! It also has been positively received: readers tend to love the variety, the inclusivity, and the inventiveness. Some standouts noted in reviews are Horney for the Holidays by Lulu M. Sylvian, Bigfoot, Bigger Heart by Wednesday Wheeler, A Waterhorse for Winter by D. B. Sieders. If you like holiday romance with a heavy dose of the monstrous and magical, this one is a classic in its niche. And if you want more, check out A Very Cryptid Christmas Vol. 2! Spotlight: Twisted Tidings: A Monster Romance Holiday Anthology Twisted Tidings: A Monster Romance Holiday Anthology (2024) is holiday themed […] Read More...
