A VERY LEVET CHRISTMAS is a short novella from the
Guardians of Eternity series. A holiday story,
there is a
nice nod to Dickens' A Christmas Carol with the past,
present, and future shown to Were Damon by the diminutive
gargoyle Levet, who is acting as a Christmas Angel.
Damon is a pureblood Were who has been raised by his
mother
with the expectation that he will challenge Salvatore, who
is the current King of the Weres, for the right to be
king. Damon's father used to be king before he went mad
and banished everyone, including his family, then died due
to the black magic he dabbled in. Damon's mother became
unstable, banned from her pack due to her increasing
violence. Poor Damon, raised without love, did not want
the destiny his mother pushed him toward.
Salvatore and his queen, Harley, are holed up at
Salvatore's private lair in St. Louis with their new five
newly born pups. Informed by Salvatore's guard that only
family is allowed into the lair to see the pups, Levet
trudges mournfully off into the cold and lonely night,
only
to meet Sera Belle, a Christmas Angel who is partially
trapped in a portal and cannot free herself to carry out
her appointed task. She passes her fairy wand to Levet
and
informs him that he must carry out her duties to meet
someone and "encourage them to make a change in their
lives."
Levet is his usual hilarious self as he shows Damon his
past, present, and future. Levet confronts Damon, warning
him that challenging the king will put the newborn pups at
risk and will cause him to lose his potential mate, Gia.
There are lots of good pop references and as well as many
snarly vampires and beasts going toe to toe to keep the
plot flying along. This fun Christmas-themed short story
will keep you chuckling, and will make you clamor for more
Alexander Ivy books placed under your tree for you to
read.
A gargoyle of Levet’s charm and intelligence should not be
facing a solitary Christmas. True, he may appear a little
unconventional—not to mention unconventionally little—even
for a gargoyle. But what Levet lacks in height he makes up
for in loyalty, and being banned from the festivities
surrounding the Queen of Weres’ new pups is quite unfair.
So when a beautiful Christmas angel begs for help in
fulfilling her duties, Levet has nothing better to do than
agree. Armed with a magical wand, Levet confronts Damon, a
pureblood Were intent on seizing the throne. Challenging
the
King will put the pups at risk—and drive away Damon’s
potential mate, Gia. Who better to convince Damon to
choose
love, not war, than a gargoyle expert in amour? With a
little magic, and a lot of Levet, this may yet be a truly
wonderful Christmastime…
