This novella serves as an excellent taster of Stephen Aryan's writing style and the world in which his other books take place. I haven't read any of his other work yet, but as this is a prequel I didn't feel I was missing out on any inside knowledge. If anything, this book serves as an expanded backstory to one of the main characters of the first series, Vargus.
I really enjoyed the entry into the world, Aryan's easy-flowing narrative and the short, concise self-contained story which contains some good, well described action scenes, good dialogue and hints at a larger world to be explored and does lead you to want to read more.

Unlike with the previous books, this one has a satisfying ending. Sadly, it didn't close off the loose ends from the other books as I had hoped.

Santa is on the lookout for his fated mate, the Winter Maiden, who will help save Christmas. When he finds Holly, he knows she is the one. Holly's body reacts in a specific way to Nick's presence, which he loves, and so does she!
Told from both perspectives, this is a fast-moving instalove, full of Christmas cheer, and enough kink to keep you happy. Filthy and fabulous, I am loving this series, and will definitely be reading this one again! After all, what is Christmas without milk and cookies for Santa?

This is a novella so the storyline is fast-paced and moves along swiftly. Saying that, you will still find all the information you need to be engrossed in the story of how Rafe and Shannon came to be partners and what their histories are.
This is a wonderful story that I would recommend for a rainy evening or when you are curled up in front of a fire, who knows maybe even during the build-up to the season itself! Short, sweet and sexy.
