Prey for You completes the main storyline for these characters. However, to enjoy extra time with this couple you can still pick up HoHoHo for You, a fun, anti-Christmas novella that can be enjoyed year-round!Tropes & This is a dark romance that involves a masked man / stalker romance. It includes primal play, christian religious themes, violence, humor, and general badassery (among other things.) Buckle up, buttercup! less
