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

 A Very Levet Christmas is a novella set up like A Christmas Carol with Levet as the guide through Christmas Past, Present & Future. Levet is a small gargoyle who is funny, brave and loyal, and I was eager to read this because I enjoyed him in the previous book (yeah I started this series late, but I plan to go back and read the ones I've missed).

 This book was a really quick read, but it had a good story that didn't feel rushed like most novellas do. Levet is on a mission to make Damon see what his current path will lead to, but he also learns a few things about himself. It was a really sweet Christmas read with a little comic relief from poor Levet.

 If you haven't read any of the other Guardian of Eternity books I don't recommend starting here. It's not that I think that new readers wouldn't understand what's going on because it is its own story, but that it would be more enjoyable if you already knew some of the characters in it. If you don't mind starting here, and you're looking for a quick, heartwarming holiday read then this one is for you.
