If Grinch Was A Prince: M/M Dark Holiday Romance

Prince "The Grinch" Barclay.

He doesn't just have the name; he has the reputation. My employer is a man of absolute power, icy arrogance, and a heart that seems carved from stone. He looks like a fairy tale, but he rules his empire with an iron fist.

After firing his last assistant right before the holidays, he’s set his sights on me. I’m desperate for this job, which means I have to follow his every command, no matter how demanding or cold he becomes. I thought I could handle the pressure, but being under his thumb is more intense than I ever imagined.

Victor Anderson.

My new assistant thinks he can charm his way out of his responsibilities. He doesn’t realize that the contract he signed is ironclad, binding him to my service for the duration of the season. His defiance is a game I intend to win. He might think he’s strong, but I can see the cracks in his armor—and I know exactly how to make him surrender to my will.

This standalone M/M dark romance features a morally gray lead, power-exchange themes, and a guaranteed Happily Ever After. Intended for mature readers who enjoy intense, high-stakes emotional journeys.
