My new festive tradition is reading the annual Midwest Weres book. Leah and Jasmine strike a deal to pretend they're dating over Christmas. However, things are less than smooth when both Leah and Jazz have pasts, family and secrets to contend with.

- Sapphic Hallmark vibes again. Mostly cosy with a. Little bit of spice thrown in for good measure. My favourite bits were the winter festival and movie night.

- I like the little cameos from previous protagonists. They didn't affect the story but it was nice to have little catch ups with them. 

- This one was not as shifter focused as the others but it worked well.  I enjoyed the focus on the story and the deepening relationships.

Fun, cosy and festive. A series perfect for those who like shifter romance, sapphic relationships and a Christmas theme.
