mistletoe misfits - Coming March 9, 2026
Holly Prancer has six weeks to hold a bunch misfits together for a sacred ritual that’s never failed in five hundred years, or watch her parents’ dream academy collapse.
Chosen as Unity for the Winter Flight Trials, Holly must unite a volatile ice mage, a perfectionist who breaks every bond, a half-Fae outsider, a terrified thirteen-year-old, and herself—when she’s never felt whole.
Because the magic doesn’t want perfection.It wants the truth.
