This is a wonderful start to a new series. I loved reading this story so much and I can’t wait to see what is going to happen next in the next book. I highly recommend this story to everyone who loves reading about wereolves or even paranormal stories.
This is my honest and unbias opinion of the story.
What a fun story! Charley and Rafe meet and fall in love in a most unusual way but it works out well for everyone involved. I hope all the guys have their own story; I’d love to read them.
Loved it! Definite recommended read!
xoxoxo loved it!!!
The perfect Christmas gift
What better way to start a series then with a kidnapping. The author did a great job of teaching us about the pack while slowly building up the love between these two characters. It was such a romantic story that has set us up perfectly for the next book in the series. I can’t wait to read it.
This is a fun and quick read. I loved it. all the characters were awesome and of course, I liked both Rafe and Charley. It started with intrigue and mystery and then jumped to romance and love. And not even a single boring moment throughout. Also made me laugh out loud a few times. The only thing I didn’t like was how soon it ended, but it is a novella so… 😉
Charley was kidnapped and they put something over her nose and mouth that knocked her out. When she woke up she’s in a strange bed. She starts yelling and screaming wanting to go home and the guys tell her they are wolves and their Alpha needs her to mate with him. Okay she has gotten aboard the crazy train. Then HE comes in and omg he is drop dead handsome and after talking to her she decides he is also crazy but hey he’s handsome so she agrees to help him out. Will she stick around for the long term or just as long as he needs her too? This is an amazing story if you love paranormal stories you will love this one.
Charlie’s Christmas Wolf…another great story by Ms CD Gorri! One that I recommend, along with everything else she writes!
This was an amazing read! I absolutely loved Rafe and Charley. When his Pack take matters in to their own hands to help their Alpha, Charley’s life will be turned upside down. But what starts out as a kidnapping is quickly turned into a romance, a great story is created. Rafe needs to convince her to marry him before Christmas. Not an easy task. This was sweetness, humor and steam all in one beautifully ‘wrapped’ package. The characters are easy to fall for. You want them to find a HEA. The pack was great, such a tight knit group with the best intentions. This is the way to start a new series. A must read for all shifter lovers!
My first wolf pack book and I love it better than what I expected definitely will recommend it when started could not put it down
Wow A fantastic read. Charlie is kidnapped. Rafe needs to have a mate by Christmas eve. Will these two come together and make a stronger bond. This read grabs you and keeps you on the edge of your seat. There are some twists and turns. But the Author definitely brings the characters out to nake this an epic story, I loved it.

What’s an Alpha to do when he’s required to find a mate?
He steals one of course!
Rafe Maccon’s rule is being questioned by a rogue who is determined to take over his place. In order for his position to be safe and no longer in question he must find a mate by Christmas Eve.
Charley (Carlotta) Palmieri knows her life is not going how she planned. She’s working at a dead-end job in a deli and is now being forced to take a 6 week unpaid vacation while its closed. When she’s kidnapped her world is turned upside down and a things she never really believed in are now proving to be true.
Overall I enjoyed this story. However, the reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because of the lack of communication between these two. Rafe and Charley both jump to conclusions on how the other must feel rather than actually talking things out.
This was a great start to the series. Poor Charley is kidnapped at a bus stop. Never in a million years would she think she could fall for the very man they are kidnapping her for. What starts of as a “ I will help you “ favor turns into true love.
An enjoyable sweet story. No conflict and not a big story line. Pretty simple and instalove is involved. Not uncommon with mates but things happened pretty quick and Charley dove head first. I’ve read these stories before and they are very entertaining and I liked it. Both characters were sweet to each other. I kind of felt I wanted more information and more of a dynamic how things worked in the pack since he’s an Alpha of so many. Otherwise I liked it.
A short, but very hot Christmas read. I enjoyed the characters very much, especially Charley who is alone with no one in her life except a kitty named Buttercup. It’s heartwarming that she gets her hearts desire in this book. Great beach read as you’ll need the water to.cool off after some of the steamy scenes in this book!!!
Charley’s on her way home when she’s kidnapped by some wolves of a pack. She’s to be a gift for their alpha. Let’s just say, she’s not happy. Rafe can’t believe that they grabbed another one. But this one’s different. One look in her eyes and he’s hooked.
I’m in love with this series and I’ve only read 2 books from it…..and they weren’t even in the right order. It didn’t matter and I can’t wait to read them all. This was a short read but it was just fantastic. Rafe needs a mate in order to continue to be Alpha for his pack, so his pack decides to find him a mate using some less than chivalrous means. However, after Rafe meets Charley he can’t be too mad at his pack. These 2 are perfect for each other and you’ll love them!!!!
The winter season will warm considerably if you read Charley’s Christmas Wolf, a Macconwood Pack novella. Charley gets the surprise of her life and is introduced to a world about which she knew nothing. Rafe’s commanding presence and smoldering eyes keep her feeling safe and…desirable, a feeling she had not known before. Can she makes lemonade from the batch of lemons life had given her, or would she leave with the bitter taste of embarrassment and rejection in her mouth? Would Rafe remain unchallenged in this role as Alpha, or would he lose the full rights he should have claimed long ago and his mate in the bargain? Read on for the exciting answer in the great addition to the Macconwood Pack series.
Even though this is a short book, I feel it kind of got to the “falling in Love part” fairly quickly considering the circumstances that brought them together. But saying that the story was still well written. I liked the connection between the two main characters. And I can’t wait to read the next one.
This is a very sweet story with a great deal of humor. One is aware the author is quite familiar with her universe but all the requisite details are filled in to make a perfect introduction or standalone tale (but one that entices you to want to embrace more of this world!). But as much as I truly enjoyed the working out of the plot and all the characters, what I REALLY want, when all is said and done, is the HOUSE! Let me know what YOUR favorite part is.
