All I want for Christmas is to feel my legs.Because my mates broke me.After years of adoration and love—and lots of intimacy—my guys have a special holiday request.A little fae baby.Like a fool, I agree, but there’s no way I can choose who gets to be the father. So, my guys have come up with a solution. A series of trials will determine who’ll do the deed; namely, one in the bedroom that has me … deed; namely, one in the bedroom that has me questioning if my lady parts are really up for this. Right now? Yeah, I can’t feel my legs.
Except one look at my mates has me caving. The idea of them as dads melts me into a puddle of Claire-goo.
Even if their timing can’t be worse. My dream of opening an Interrealm Fae Academy is just within reach. Then my pregnancy arrives with one hell of a twist.
I’m going to have to count on my guys more than ever to get me through this mess.
Wish my mates luck. They’re going to need it. Because a pregnant fae with control over all five elements is a challenge unlike any they’ve ever faced before.
Something tells me this is going to be one unforgettable holiday.
Authors’ Note: Elemental Fae Holiday is a standalone why-choose novel with a happily-ever-after ending. It features characters from the Elemental Fae Academy world but can be read without previous knowledge from the trilogy.

AHHH!
I’d been dying to read this book ever since the authors teased the cover around Thanksgiving of 2019. Finally, I’ve been able to get my hands on it, and despite the long wait and very high expectations, it did not disappoint.
Both authors are completely brilliant creatively, and as writers. The story is well-imagined and the characters—there are MANY—all manage to be true to what we’ve seen thus far. This book manages to tie in with the Fortune Fae Academy and Midnight Fae Academy worlds.
Also manages to leave me dying for J.R. Thorn’s Candela, which is coming next year. We get a better glimpse at Lance, who I expect we’ll be seeing a lot more of.
A truly festive read that I might just need to read every year. Manages to pack in beautiful moments, very steamy scenes, humor, adventure and more. You do not need to read the Elemental Fae Academy trilogy, but I strongly recommend doing so and getting to know the characters better before taking on this one; it’ll make those little funny moments even more hilarious.
Editing is on-point, no distractions noting and the book design—WOW! Seriously, this might be the prettiest book I’ve ever seen.
5 very-excited stars.
Elemental Fae Holiday is NOT a stand alone read. That said you might be ok with reading it if you’ve read something from this world, so that you have an understanding of it. In order to get the maximum enjoyment from it I would recommend reading the Elemental Fae Academy: The Complete Trilogy trilogy first.
Overall I really enjoyed this story, though there were some parts I would have liked more of and some parts less of. Personally I didn’t enjoy the entire first chapter being a sex scene, my preference would have been to get into the story and re-familiarise myself with the characters first. I ended up skipping most of the chapter because I wasn’t yet connected to Claire and her mates. Less emphasis on sex and more on the Interrealm Fae Academy would have easily made this a 5 star read for me. I felt like there was a real missed opportunity of having some fun scenes of Cyrus and Exos negotiating with Lucifer himself!
The story flowed really smoothly and this is a very easy but enjoyable read. It was fun to see familiar faces pop up every now and then and I loved seeing how Vox, Sol, Titus, Cyrus, Exos and Claire had grown together into their mate circle. A definite must read for all those who read the original trilogy
Happy holidays!
This was just plain chaotic wet holiday fun with a little Christmas miracle to top it all off
It’s been a few years now and Claire and her circle are settling in and the men in her life are wanting to add to it – Yep they want the pitter-patter of little fae feet
Once they convince their queen the rest is just a matter of who gets first dibs of playing the baker (I am going to admit my heart did crack slightly on a couple of scenes during the competition).
What our men could not see coming was the side effects of the pregnancy.
Oh and that fae pregnancies are just a little (or a lot depending on who is doing the carrying) a bit different from human ones
Never fear this ends on a happy note but getting there is a trial of patience
Oh, how I’ve missed the gang
When I heard the was an opportunity to spend the holidays with them
I was in the first portal I could find
As always we laughed, reminisced, loved even worked on Claire’s plan for a more accepting academy so no other abomination would experience what she did. (the guys did a great job of making her dream come true)
And to top off the magic that is Winter Solstice our magic circle was also gifted a Christmas miracle
Another magical addition to the Elemental Fae collection
That was totally hot. Totally unexpected. Totally crazy. And totally great. It was also one big mess time to time. Surging and disappearing of elements. Lots of politics and going step by step. Perfectly planned. However I must tell that trials was kind of.. well.. silly at least we know have a faeling is not much easier than having a kid?however at least you have 5 wonderful mates to help you with the little one. Beautiful story.
I really enjoyed this festive read, but a bit too short for me, a lovely finish to a great series.
Omg I was so excited to find out who the bio father is, knowing the baby would be spoiled rotten with 5 dads. And learning about a fae pregnancy was interesting. This book is more light-hearted than the previous ones.
What a fun read!
I actually had a baby boy last year April. So this book was definitely fun to read. It was so entertaining and hilarious at some parts. And also of course full of sexy steamy goodness haha. This story can be read anytime not just during holidays. Really good!
I love a good holiday read and this stand alone elemental fae story is a great one! It’s an exciting read full of emotions, tons of scorching heat and it’s intense as we follow Claire and her mates in their decision to have a baby! It’s great to see the relationships development, the trials to decide the baby daddy and (as another reviewer has put it) the shenanigans that ensue! A fun holiday read!
Absolutely loved this story. Loved reading about Claire and of course her mates. Story was really good and of course I stayed up late just to finish. This is one of my favorite series from JR Thorn and Lexi Foss. Like apart these authors are amazing and together they are phenomenal. This is book 4 and you should read the prior books. But read it. You will not be disappointed. Loved it!!!
I absolutely loved seeing beautiful Claire and her sexy guys celebrate Christmas/Faestivities!! I loved how they chose who was getting to have the 1st baby lol lots of sexy scenes & mouthwatering yumminess with her men too!! Amazing book you won’t want to put down!
What else could you want for the holidays except for hot nights? Maybe a new faeling?! This is a great holiday story to mix human and fae worlds, and the addition with the storyline to include a fae pregnancy is awesome. So descriptive, and with human touches, too. Great holiday story!
Welcome back to the Elemental Fae Academy – the ultimate world of gritty “why choose” and salacious fun.
We return to this epic world to find our half breed and her misfit band of droolworthy fun time loving mates just in time for the holidays. And boy oh boy, are we in for some treasures among the gifts that are the pages of this incredibly steamy cannot-put-down masterpiece.
One of the things I love about this series, and all the works of JR Thorn and Lexi C Foss is that they seamlessly transition between authors in such a way that you cannot tell where one has ended and the other has begun. They have mastered the art of writing together, and there’s no disjoint in tone and narrative. Everyone stays in character, and it absolutely shows.
Not to mention, they handle a really intricate topic in this book that other Why Choose romances can fail at: Pregnancy. And oh boy, does this book absolutely take the award for doing it right. Its funny, sometimes sweet, sexy and real in a way that is truly touching. This is because JR and Lexi have built a dynamic between their males that makes this a natural plot point for the series to trek, and it makes for such an amazing addition to the series. One of the biggest cringe points for me in pregnancy why choose plots is the bio-dad element to it, and how it will effect the mates. But this topic is handled so well that I never felt that cringe factor come in.
This is definitely heat filled, and should be enjoyed in private, if you get my drift. This is exceptionally spicy, even for this duo. But that is a-okay for me, because it is the perfect thing to keep me warm on winter nights because, let’s face it, when there’s a foot of snow outside nothing is better than a whole bed full of partners.
I received an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review. The views here are entirely my own.
I loved this holiday story, just perfect. I really enjoyed the characters as they join together and it really gave me all the emotions. Claire and her mates spend the holidays in interesting ways, giving us lots of fun, heat and emotions. Who knew having a baby would be so much fun!! Wonderful companion book to the series and it was wonderful to get a full length novel giving us a glimpse into what they’re up to after their story was completed in the trilogy. These authors together have created a story that draws you in and will have you smiling throughout from start to finish!
It was amazing for me to be back in the world of the Elemental Fae, but even if you haven’t read the EFA trilogy, you can still enjoy this holiday treat. Claire and her five mates have decided to have a baby! Don’t worry, though, they still have a lot of time to indulge each other in steamy times. I love all of these characters, I love the plot of this story, and I love that there is still an underlying plot with extra substance mixed in with all of the fun. It’s all woven together so masterfully that this book is a really fun read. Start it today and if you haven’t already, continue with the EFA complete trilogy!
ONE PLEASURABLE JOURNEY
Flying fritters! This extremely talented, uniquely gifted and immensely impressive dynamic duo unleashes this thrilling whirlwind of explosive wonder, grabbing you from the start and holding steady until the end, blasting this baby to staggering heights. Anarchy and mishaps descend in a flurry of thrilling surprises and humourous deals, observing the broken barriers and blurred perimeters solidify as limitations are amplified and enforced, reaching deep for every fiber of strength in a fierce surge of determination, fusing this gem together seamlessly. Attributes and perception in layer upon layer that you peel back with each page your drawn into this tangled web so thoroughly till everything else ceases to exist, blasting this bad boy into the eye of the hurricane, bursting it into a tailspin with astonishing results, secrets confessed, revelations unmasked and promises made, hurling this baby to life brilliantly. The attraction and chemistry collides with such intensity and ardor, exposing boundless emotions and infinite affections, drawing our characters closer, bonding them to one another perfectly. The characters are complex, genuine and realistic with traits and qualities that balance and blend, with amazing depth and diversity and enough spice to add an extra kick to the mix. Throw in 100% on point realism, raising the stakes with such graphic scenarios that are so colorfully descriptive and vividly detailed its like you’re living it with them instead of on the sidelines. Remarkable job guys, thanks for sharing this amazing thrill with us.
Such a fun little return to the Elemental Fae world. Claire and her guys are so much fun, and they have decided it is time to add a baby to the mix, they just need to convince Claire of that. And figure out who is going to be the father. Let the fun begin! There is no doubt the guys will all make good fathers, and there will be plenty of love to go around. But will Claire’s halfling nature make a difference?
A light-hearted return, with cameos from characters Midnight Fae Academy and Fortune Fae Academy and hints of other Fae from the larger Fae world. Such a good read. I loved it!
This was the perfect holiday treat and it was so great to catch back up with Claire and all her fae mates.
This full-length novel concentrates on the connections, the emotions and the heat, in fact, this was absolutely scorching when it came to the heat like thermostat cranked up.
Here Exos, Cyrus, Vox, Sol and Titus decide they want to take their mate circle to the next level adding something special to the mix if only Claire will agree.
So let the mate games commence and the winner of them gets to be the first bio daddy to there shared baby.
This was again written from multiple POV’s, it was so enjoyable and also erotically intense and packed chock full of emotional warmth and family bonding.
It was fabulous to witness how this unconventional family has further solidified since we were last with them.
A really great addition and unexpected treat to one of my favourite series.
I voluntary reviewed a copy of Elemental Fae Holiday.

Just in time for the holidays
What a wonderful story to catch up with the mate-circle of our Elemental Faes The mates have decided they want a faeling and they now need to convince Claire and determine who gets to the father
Loved this story and was definitely nice to catch up with everyone again I received an advanced copy and I voluntarily leave my honest review
Hands down couldn’t put this down. One of my favorites in this series. I was so excited when I saw that there would be a holiday edition. Who doesn’t love a little bonus story like this? I hope there will be more in the future. Just like a cute little update or something. The world building was spot on. The characters have evolved and continue to amaze me. I love the fact that there are new character being introduced. To continue on with the series in some way. The pages though just seemed to fly by, I tried to take my time I swear! All in all, amazing!
Loving the Fae this Christmas season. They guys talk Claire into having a faeling. This isn’t going to be your normal pregnant work. Claire only gets 9 weeks to prepare for the baby and all her powers are on the fritz. Good thing she has all those men.
