I love anthologies because there are so many new authors that you can discovered all at once. This anthology had one of my favorite authors Charlene Hartnady which was the main reason I chose to read it. But there are also many entertaining short stories by some very good authors. I enjoyed most of the novellas with an exception of a few which were just too raunchy for my taste but most of them have interesting characters and story lines. Of all the shorts, for me the most enjoyable reads were:

Christin Lovell ~ A Beary Merry Christmas
V. Vaughn ~ Andre
Tasha Black ~ Ghost of Shifters Past
Charlene Hartnady ~ Shifter Beneath the Mistletoe
Harmony Raines ~ Bear Humbug
Ruby Shae ~ Little Drummer Bear
Emerald Wright ~ A Dragon’s Gift

ARC provided in exchange for an honest review. ( )

I liked all but the last two - the second to last had spanking and pain which was not noted in the description, and the last one while a nice story had too much sadness in the story itself and the premise. Not enough sexual tension and consummation, just tension and sadness.

Overall a good collection. ( )
