I enjoyed this cute and cosy small town paranormal romance novella with a witch-baker FMC and wolf-shifter CEO MMC.

While I'm not usually one for holiday themed books, I found the small amount of it in this story to be a nice touch.

The fated mates, obsessed shifter, unique magic, grumpy x sunshine, and steamy romance were all beautifully written!

I received an ARC of this book from the author. All thoughts are my own honest opinions.

Everything about this book had me giggling the entire time. I read it in one sitting while rotting in bed one afternoon, and I loved every minute of it. 

You can’t help but respect Netti’s hustle. She’s doing everything she can to do well in school, support herself, and work toward the career she wants, even though it means leaving her family home. I like that there is no animosity between Netti and her family. She didn’t explore her options out of something negative, but rather because she just had other interests, and her family seems to support that. They just don’t like that she moved away and they don’t get to see her as often as they’d like.

In the same vein, Connor also left home to pursue something else. However, this is rooted in not wanting to fight with his brother, since they were both the twin sons of their pack’s alpha. It’s admirable and understandable, even though his wolf seems to be against the decision. That said, I think it’s hilarious that baked goods did not work in his favor, but they forced him to confront what he wants and what he’s meant to be.
