The Elves of Christmas by Wendy Rathbone
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A very sweet Christmas story about never making assumptions. Something both Ice and Pepper have done, about each other. Pepper thinks that Ice is to irreverent about all things Santa. Ice believes that Pepper is a suck up to Santa, stuck up and standoffish to boot.
A visit from Santa creates a frantic cleaning and decorating of the workshops. All elves are called on to help. Paired together, Ice and Pepper slowly discover that what they thought was true about other is only an illusion of their own minds.
There is tension, some angst, misunderstandings, and some hot sex. Loved the characters, they are well written. And the secondary character adds fun to the mix.
There was one point that I was unhappy with, the ending. Santa’s attitude toward Ice, and how he dismissed Ice’s idea didn’t give me any ‘warm and fuzzy’ feeling towards Santa. And the issue wasn’t resolved, and yet all seems to be forgiven at the end. Christmas magic, maybe. Otherwise, I loved this story.
