A HIGHLAND WOLF CHRISTMAS is Book fifteen in Terry Spear's Heart of the Wolf series. As always, Terry Spear balances great characters, eroticism, and high-energy story- telling to make a compelling read. A HIGHLAND WOLF CHRISTMAS is another story by this author that I was anxious to read, and sad to see end.

  After reading previous books in this series, and the description for A HIGHLAND WOLF CHRISTMAS, I thought that the main issue in this story would be Guthrie's clashing views with Calla when it comes to spending money. However, I did not find this to be the case. They are both pretty savvy when it comes to finance, and Guthrie admires her business sense once he learns more about Calla. The real issue in A HIGHLAND WOLF CHRISTMAS that threatens their romance is the fact that they have both been burned before when it comes to love. They fear their relationship will become a rebound affair and they each have trouble trusting their feelings.

  A HIGHLAND WOLF CHRISTMAS is both fun and exciting. The camaraderie between the members of the MacNeill family, and Guthrie's bodyguard attempts make for some lighter moments. These lighter moments act as a nice counterpoint to the drama and danger surrounding Calla being stalked by her ex. Terry Spear does a wonderful job drawing both of these characters out and adding depth to them. Guthrie really surprised me by not being the crotchety spendthrift I thought he would be. Instead, he's sexy and has a big heart. Calla is not a warrior or fighter but she stands up to her ex when he tries to push her around. She shows a strong character and courage. I love how Guthrie's family welcomed Calla and made her feel like a part of their family -- even before she officially got together with Guthrie.

  A HIGHLAND WOLF CHRISTMAS is a holiday treat -- a romance that sizzles and entertains. The familiar characters from previous books make a great addition to the story and don't take anything away from the romance between Guthrie and Calla. I love this Heart of the Wolf series by Terry Spear and eagerly await the next installment.
