If not for the beautiful bear I just met, I might be cursed forever.

Twinkle is a snarky elf with more attitude than brains. When he tests Santa’s patience one too many times, Santa turns him into an elf figurine and banishes him from the North Pole. Much to his annoyance, he is packaged and mailed to a stranger’s address. From there, he must shift into human form to find his fated mate by Christmas or become an elf figurine forever.

Monty is a bear shifter who prefers to live away from his family and pack. When a package appears on his doorstep on Christmas morning, he opens it to discover a cute elf statue. He can find no return address, and sets the elf on his coffee table. When he next looks, a handsome man with pointed ears is sitting where the statue was.

The man says his name is Twinkle, and he begins to tell Monty a ridiculous story about a real North Pole and a Santa who doesn’t understand him.

Monty is not sure he can trust Twinkle, but something about the elf draws him in as he listens to his silly stories of multiple Santas, elves, flying reindeer, hidden Christmas villages, and more. And when Twinkle begins to go into heat, Monty feels his own rut begin to surface. Can he believe Twinkle’s tall tales? Whatever happens, this could turn out to be the best or the worst Christmas present ever.
