Overview

Even killers need a little holiday peace.

Christmas Eve hits Shadowfell Ranch with a blizzard hard enough to bury the past. Inside, the men who once fought wars for the government face their strangest mission yet—decorations, dinner, and something dangerously close to peace.

But old instincts don’t die easy.

When the alarms flare through the storm, laughter turns to readiness in a heartbeat. Outside, the world is white and cold and waiting. Inside, it’s warmth, found family, and the kind of quiet none of them are sure they deserve.

Buckshot & Mistletoe is a holiday short story set in the Genesis world—where love, loyalty, and second chances shine brightest against the dark.
