He’s taking her on a sleigh ride…Pilot Connor Brian has never found the time to find a fated mate.Well, this werebear’s getting grounded for Christmas, because he got his furry butt on The Naughty List.If he doesn’t get off The Naughty List and claim his fated mate by Christmas, he’ll lose his shift forever.That means he’s going to have to work with Comet — Santa’Claus’ flying reindeer — if … Santa’Claus’ flying reindeer — if he has any hope of keeping his bear.
Getting off of The Naughty List should be easy…but it’s hard when a curvy bad girl baker keeps distracting Connor from his mission of finding a Nice girl to take back to Nuthusk, Washington for Christmas.
Who said Snow White couldn’t be a bad girl?
Curvy baker Noel Newman knows a few things.
She knows how to bake — good. Real good.
She knows her type — bad. Real bad.
Heck, you could even describe her type as Naughty — and from the mark on Connor’s chest, that’s just what he is.
A bad girl for the bad boy, as classic a combination as eggnog and rum.
The only problem is, Connor can’t seem to decide whether or not Noel’s the woman he wants to unwrap underneath the Christmas tree come Christmas Eve. Will Noel let Connor distract her from her special Christmas charity project for kids, or, will the Naughty shifter end up helping her do something Nice after all?
One shifter. Seven women.
One BBW. Seven shifters.
You do the math.
There’s one thing Noel knows. She doesn’t want to be in a harem.
There’s one thing Connor knows. He doesn’t want to be in a reverse harem.
When seven shifter men roll into town, looking for Noel, and seven shifter women come to Nuthusk, looking for Connor, the pair realize that they don’t know each other as well as they seem.
They don’t yet know the full story…but will they both find their happily ever after?
This story, featuring a bad boy werebear and a BBW baker, is loosely based on Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.

Noel is the newest baker from Miami this year and Avery has told her about the magic of Christmas but Noel doesn’t believe her, until she sees it for herself. Noel is a lot sassy and curvy as well as sexy and she is ready for a man like Connor but he isn’t interested in playing games even though he desires Noel and thinks she could easily be his fated mate but will not let her know. She cannot think about anything but him but she thinks he doesn’t like her until Pandora Santa’s daughter leaves some mistletoe for them and Connor kisses her and they both have some strange feels they would like to explore. Noel realises that she is not as worldly as she seems and Connor knows that he wants to be with her but they both invite friends and family to help with this years project for the rural families around Wreath. Connor and Noel both believe the other has a harem and neither one wants to play that way. Great storyline and characters. Adult content. I was given a copy as a gift from author without obligation. I am providing an honest review.
Conner just wants to fly his planes, but Clan Marron is ready for him to settle down and start a family. He is Krampus next bad boy training for The Ride.
Noel is the the next temp at Bear Claw Bakery and flirty bad girl. She has sass and attitude in spades! Conner doesn’t need a bad girl, so he does his best to stay away.
However, fate has other ideas! Delivering packages to families up in the mountains brings them closer together. The arrival of her seven overprotective brothers and his “sisters” confuses both of them. Assumptions about each other, put their future in danger. Sometimes it’s just better to talk it out. Check this book out, I’m headed to book six next!
A sassy holiday tale you want to read.
Noel, this year’s human BBW baker, goes back and forth with Connor, the bad boy bear shifter on this year’s naughty list, in an attempt to break free from her overprotective older brothers. As the story progresses Connor pushes Noel away, Noel is determined to get her man and each of them has a decision to make if they could only talk to each other. Sable Sylvan has taken a new twist to the Snow White fairytale and created a sassy holiday tale you want to read.
I received a free copy of the book from the author. I had the opportunity to review or not.
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 5th 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 is Connor and Noel’s story. Connor is a cocky flyboy. Both Connor and Noel keep jumping to conclusions about each other based on what they see and how the other acts. It is quite comical at times how they both just keep missing the mark. Thankfully they have some friends and family who help them get their acts together. This was another great read that I couldn’t put down. I love how these story start with a bad boy and a curvy baker, but they are completely unique. I think you would miss out if you don’t read them all and in order, so you don’t miss out on shenanigans of the characters who are in each book!
I highly recommend to any bear shifter fans who love HEAs, Christmas, and magic!
This book is a merry romp through the snow. You fall into the book and will not want to leave. This book will leave you wanting more fun from The Wreath and the North Pole.
Great continuation to the Twelve Mates of Christmas. Not much in the drama department but that didn’t take away from the story. If anything it definitely get you into the Christmas spirit. Overall a enjoyable and entertaining read looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
** spoiler alert ** Connor has been busy in the air instead of on the ground looking for his fated mate. Noel has always had a thing for bad boys. Instantly there is friction between these two, but misunderstandings leads them apart. Will Connor be able to realize the truth before it is to late? Will Noel finally find the man to break past her facade?
Have to say, I liked the fact that he didn’t just instantly fall at her feet. He fought was he was feeling, even if at times I thought he was an idiot. I loved how Noel wasn’t at all what she seemed at first. Good read!
I love reading this shifter book. It has strong characters and was wonderfully written and the author is one of my favorites. I can not wait to see what is written next. I highly recommend this book to everyone who loves shifter books.
“I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.”
This is Connor and Noel’s story . Conner is a pilot who claims the sky is his mate and does not want to look for nor find his fated one . But needless to say the Clan has control over this one ! Noel is being told about things that she just does not believe . And once she gets a good look at Connor she knows what she wants for her Christmas treat !! The confusion that happens between these too is PRICELESS !! This is so well written and strongly recommended to all who love a sassy woman and a hunk who tries way to hard !
