Entangled Publishing’s 2013 Holiday Round Up

‘Twas a fortnight before Christmas, when all through Entangled

Not a novel was forgotten, not a single title;

The Romance Abroad was bundled with care,

In hopes that it would transport the readers somewhere;

The billionaires were all perfectly matched,

No more visions of loved ones dancing out of their grasp;

Lovers were finally united, past and present,

Embracing the Holidays, throughout the worlds and nations.

And even the half-demons found their soul mates in mortals,

Waiting  900 years for a chance at arousal.

When out at the bookstores there arose such a clatter,

We sprang from our desks to see what was the matter:
