An adorable story all about found family. It's probably better to read as the second in the series, I did this as a stand alone and, while explained nicely, Violet's (our FMC) story really starts in book one. I still really loved her whole, 'wanting to stay, fight for her home' arc.  I will say, Christmas is more of a background theme, as the orcs don't know what it is, so Violet has to explain it and start some of the traditions.

I enjoyed the first one (with Krampus) but it definitely needed some work but this sequel !!!!! AMAZING!!!!! There was still a few grammar/spelling issues but the story was SOOO GOOOD that I barely noticed. There was an actual intricate plot with politics and so much yearning between Violet and Thorn. I enjoyed reading about them dancing around the subject of being together. I also really liked that it was a portal story! Portal stories are always fun and having Krampus randomly appear at the end to help was really funny too. I have high hopes for the third book in this series!
