Nicholas “Coal” Claus, heir to the Christmas throne, has grown disenchanted with the commercial circus the holiday has become under his father’s rule. But just when he tries to escape the pressure, a passionate encounter with a mysterious stranger turns his life upside down. Duty soon calls, however, and Coal finds himself unwillingly engaged to the Easter Princess—his best friend and the object of his brother’s affections.

Everything unravels when his surprise rival in this royal love triangle is none other than Hex—the enigmatic Prince of Halloween and Coal’s unforgettable barroom flame. What begins as a public competition for the princess’s hand quickly turns into a private battle against undeniable chemistry.

Perfect for fans of LGBTQ+ romance, royal fantasy, and quirky holiday reimaginings, The Nightmare Before Kissmas offers a hilarious, heartfelt, and heat-filled ride that celebrates love in all its messy glory.
