Kringle and the Kraken

"...The low-angst, mild-peril, triple-hearted, feel-good tentacle treat all us monster lovers have been waiting for!" -Book Fairie

For Kris Kringle, Christmas is a curse. His family owns and operates a Christmas tree farm and Santa's workshop experience, but despite his name, Kris is anything but jolly about the holidays. He would much rather spend his time making ships in bottles or researching sea monsters for the nautical mythology course he teaches, sea monsters like the mighty kraken...

Levi Shoal moved to Lifeboat, Maine, to escape the pressures of his family. He didn't plan to befriend a slightly grumpy, flannel-wearing human-who doesn't know Levi is a kraken or that they live in an oceanic ley line haven town surrounded by sea monsters. Now Levi is stuck keeping secrets he shouldn't have to from the man he's falling head over tentacles for.

When Lifeboat's ley line magic is threatened and the town is attacked, Levi and Kris must work together to keep the town safe while both the humans and sea monsters get ready to celebrate the winter holidays. But can their new relationship withstand the threat and the secrets that must be revealed to fix the ley line magic?
