Hey there!

NORTH POLE UNIVERSITY is coming this Christmas

But here's the thing—you're going to want to meet Connor and Kayla first.

See, NPU didn't just appear out of nowhere. It grew from the love story that started it all: a sixteen-year-old girl getting stuck in a department store elevator with a mysterious boy who turned out to be one of Santa's reindeer shifters.

HOLIDAY SHIFTERS is their story. And it's the perfect appetizer before the main course.

Marie-Hélène recently expanded it and gave it a gorgeous new cover that matches the NPU series. It's the bridge between our world and theirs—the moment everything magical began.

Here's what happened when Marie-Hélène told her regular list about it: crickets chirping. Most have already read it and will wait until the series releases at retailers this Christmas.

But you're different. You GET the magic. You understand that sometimes the prequel is actually the secret sauce that makes everything else hit harder. And you LOVE getting shelf trophies before anybody else!

Why you need Holiday Shifters before NPU:

• Meet Connor Prancer (yes, THAT Prancer family)

• See how the magical world connects to ours

• Fall in love with the couple who inspired an entire university

• Experience that "first taste of magic" feeling again

It's available now for just $3.99, and trust us, you’re going to want to binge-read the whole series as soon as it drops!

Read Now!

This is going to be the most magical fall reading you've ever experienced. We promise.

Magically yours,

Daisy, Marie-Hélène, Peyton and Sam

P.S. Connor and Kayla's wedding happens in the NPU series bonus novella. Just saying. 💕
