Have Yourself a Merry Little Apocalypse
(2023)(A book in the Tales of Mischief and F*ckery series)
A Story by Liz Shipton
Marla was the last person left on Earth...until Ben showed up.
Since the apocalypse wiped out humanity eight months ago, Marla has been on her own. And to be honest, she kind of likes it that way. Peace and quiet. Tending her garden. Hiking with her dog.
And then Ben comes to town.
Noisy, cocky, and always out in his backyard working on some project, he's making a mess and ruining Marla's tranquil, post-apocalyptic utopia. His one saving grace is that he usually has his shirt off while he's doing it. Marla can't help spying on him through the window. There's something familiar about his face...
Then, on Christmas Eve, Ben crosses a line, and it's the last straw for Marla. But when she storms over to his place to give him a piece of her mind, she gets a very unexpected surprise.
This is a steamy, lighthearted, standalone Christmas story you can read in about 35 minutes. In it, you'll find the following tropes:
HFN ending
small town
second chance
grumpy sunshine
dude with an emotional wound
opposites attract
forced proximity
end of the world
plot twist
About the Series
Small town apocalypses? Dystopian billionaires? Fae mafia bosses? How about hockey playing shifters? A Greek god desperately in need of a nanny?
You may ask, "Why?" This series of steamy holiday instaloves asks, "Why not?" Why not a mishmash of genres? Why not funny, off-the-wall romance with hot spice and big heart? Why not a sexy hockey shifter rom-com starring the Easter bunny?
Inside these 12 books, you'll find 12 short standalone instaloves, each set during a different holiday in every month of the year.
"Even August?" I hear you asking.
Yes, friend. Even August.
"But there isn't even a holiday in Aug—"
Don't worry about it. It's gonna be fine. I have, like, eight months to figure that out. Just start at December, and we'll all be fine. Okay?
Okay.
