He’s stuffing her stocking…Billionaire bear shifter Ethan McLean is a man who’s used to getting anything he wants — all year round, not just at Christmas. He’s as grizzly as he is rich, and that’s just how this humbug likes it.When Ethan lands himself on The Naughty List for failing to find a fated mate, there’s no amount of money that can buy back his mate mark — or his shift.He’s not just … shift.
He’s not just going to have to pull Santa Claus’ sleigh on Christmas Eve. He’s also going to have to claim his fated mate — after getting himself off The Naughty List.
The only problem is, Ethan has no idea how to do any of that without his bank account…or his shift.
And his fated mate…well, she ain’t that kind of BBW.
Can Ethan make his own Christmas miracle come true, and grant some Christmas wishes for others? Maybe — with a little help from Prancer, Santa Claus’ flying reindeer.
There’s no engagement ring on curvy Carol’s Christmas list…
Curvy Carol Carter came to The Wreath, Montana for one thing — work. She has no time to play around like a frikkin’ billionaire, and that means that when lumberjack Ethan comes into Bear Claw Bakery and tracks mud all over the place, she’s not about to let it slide…even if his bad boy attitude is kinda sexy.
Carol’s got bigger problems. She has to come up with a theme for the Christmas part of the one and only Santana Claus — her boss’s boss. Will Ethan be an unwanted distraction…or is he just the kind of distraction she needs? When a mysterious reindeer defends her, when the bear fails to, the answer becomes a lot more muddy — just like Ethan’s footprints on the kitchen floor.
Will Ethan claim his curvy Cinderella?
Ethan’s never met a woman like Carol, a woman equal parts curvy and sassy, a woman who isn’t afraid to call him out on his bullshizz. The only problem is, he’s got secrets…like the fact he’s a billionaire, the fact he’s a werebear-turned-reindeer, and why he’s on The Naughty List. Will Ethan find a way to tell Carol the truth? Will Carol get the Cinderella ending she deserves? Find out — in ‘Prancer Claws.’
This story, featuring a bad boy werebear and a BBW baker, is loosely based on Cinderella.

He is pushed right out of the Clan council meeting room and into Wreath, Montana where he will work his butt off until he is assigned to a job that he is there to complete. He meets Carol Carter who has been hired by the Christmas elf Avery but she cannot tell Carol why she has really been hired. Carol has never known about the joy of Christmas because of her family life so there is no joy in the season for her only making money she cannot even afford a good coat or decent boots for the cold weather so that is another reason she jumped at the job. she is so taken with Ethan until a rabbit steals her purse and she doesn’t see Ethan around trying to help get it back she thinks he is a coward and tells him so, but there is so much more she in the dark about. Good story line. I received a copy as a gift from the author without obligation. I am providing an honest review.

Oh, and he must find and claim his mate by the end of Christmas Day if he wants his bear and mate mark back!

A really good Christmas shifter romance.
This series is about twelve naughty bear shifters and their clan has had enough. With fears of them succumbing to mate madness, they make a deal to either help them find a fated mate or else.

An exciting Christmas holiday read
Carol, a sassy BBW baker, takes her turn at helping at The Wreath and encounters Ethan, a bad boy billionaire bear shifter, when watching him trip over himself getting something out of the boat. As the story progresses the klutzy bear turns into a not so klutzy reindeer, the sassy baker starts to believe in magic and both may reform enough to get a Cinderella ending. Sable Sylvan has taken the Cinderella fairytale and twisted it into an exciting Christmas holiday read.
I received a free copy of the book from the author. I had the opportunity to review or not.
Bad boy billionaire, Ethan, has finally found something that money has no effect on. Carol is this year’s curvy temp at Bear Claw Bakery. Ethan is a real jerk when he first arrives, but curvy Carol has no patience with his high-brow attitude. Avery and Krampus are still grumbling with each other. The longer I see them together the funnier they are to me. I requested an advanced reader copy and am under no obligation to leave this review.
My Thoughts – 5 out of 5 Unicorns – I loved it!!!
***I choose what I read and review based on what intrigues me!! Yes, I got a review copy of this book, but no one tells me what to think, feel, or write about any book!! And I have bought my own copy as I do most of Sable’s books!
This is the 3rd book in this Xmas series, and it is still in Sable’s fabulous world of shifters. This is for adults only due to the steamy content.
This was my favorite story with the rags to riches theme because I’ve seen students who struggle with the same things mentioned by Carol in this book. This book had me crying for Carol. I’m glad she put Ethan in his place with her sass! I couldn’t put this story down. Each one is unique, and you never know what Krampus will do next! I love all the whole gang at The Wreath! I can’t wait to read the next one!
I highly recommend to anyone who love Christmas magic and sexy bad boy bear shifters!
This book will make you laugh and think about your own relationships. I cannot wait to see what other mischief might happen on The Wreath! The side characters are just as interesting as the main characters.
Another enjoyable and entertaining read. This series is all kinda of sweet definitely get you into the holiday spirit. The series can be read as a standalone. So if you like bad boy alpha shifter who trying to reform his ways before Christmas in order to receive the ultimate gift then I totally recommend that you one click this book. I voluntarily read and review this ARC no monetary compensation was received the opinions I have expressed are my own.

Ethan was a bad billionaire bear who ends up on the naughty list. Carol didn’t ever have a real Christmas. Lots of fun with Krampus and Avery leading the two forward. Some steam and lots of fun with these two as Ethan works to get off the Naughty list and claim his mate. Loved it!!
This is a lite-hearted Shifter Christmas romance story and a great addition to the Twelve Mates of Christmas. You will really enjoy these books. When Billionaire Bear shifter Ethan McLean goes to his Clans Thanksgiving celebration he gets tricked into a meeting of the Elder Council questioning him as to why he hasn’t found a mate yet. Concerned about him, they called in Santana Claus and Krumpas for help. This is how Ethan ended on the naughty list, plus he loses his mate mark and his bear while he works on getting off of the naughty list. Carol Carter volunteered to work over the holiday season for the Bear Claw Bakery. She had a sad upbringing that made her tough and bold and not really believe/celebrate Christmas.
Can Ethan earn his way off the naughty list by Christmas day? Can he learn that money cannot buy everything? Will Carol learn to overcome her past and learn to believe in Christmas magic? Can you resist such a great story?

This is Ethan and Carol’s story . Ethan is tricked into going into the council’s room where he quickly learns that money cannot solve everything . Carol is a baker whom just wants to earn her money without having to deal much with Christmas . The first time she sees Ethan he is trying to get off a rowboat while grabbing a small tree and he loses his balance so when he comes up to get Krampus’s order he leaves one back of a mess ! Carol is kind of upset over the mess and his attitude but at the same time turned on. Oh wow that sneaky rabbit lol I could just picture this happening!! I do feel for poor Barbara no one ever believes her at first . I loved the gifts they gave each other and how Carol figured out how to spread Christmas joy ! This is well written and recommended to all !
