I really like The Magi Accounts Series and enjoyed this Christmas story.
The writing style is wonderful as always and the world is described in detail. Unlike the other books in the series, there isn't quite as much suspense as before. But that doesn't matter, because there are still memories that cause panic attacks and flashbacks that remind us of a not-so-good time.
The magician Ash experiences Christmas and all its holiday traditions for the first time in years. This was not allowed in the abusive Magi Compound.
Ash and Charlie's story begins with a kiss under mistletoe and then develops into so much more. In the end, I found Ash's gift to Charlie very touching. Basically, the novella is humorous with a great Christmas and funny moments. In the series, it's a more lighthearted book and it fits perfectly for Christmas. An entertaining book that I listened to in one go.
Zachary Zaba narrated the audiobook and he did a good job. I could usually tell the voices of the protagonists apart, although I found that some were very similar.

Story: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I've listened to several books by the author before, but the narrator was new to me.
The book can be read as a standalone, but is embedded in a series that several authors have co-written.
The writing style is, as always, very good. The world-building is detailed and I could easily imagine the world and surroundings of Gauhala. Gauhala is a place where the humans look down on the Fae and don't treat them particularly well. The Fae Bel meets Remi because of a magical coin. Remi is a wolf shifter who runs a security company. In order to expand it, he has moved to another country with friends and discovers that the people there have a different way of dealing with other Spzies than in his home country.
Bel feels attracted to Remi right from the start. And Remi treats Bel well, but Bel is and remains suspicious. The chemistry between the two is fantastic, as is their development. But Bel has a secret that could potentially destroy their budding relationship. He tries to give Remi clues. But can Remi interpret them correctly?
I found the story very entertaining. It is cleverly thought out with a few twists and surprises, deep feelings, hot romance as well as drama and danger.
Michael Lesley is a fantastic narrator. He portrayed the characters appropriately, giving each one a unique and memorable voice so that the listener always knew immediately who was speaking. He captured and conveyed the emotions perfectly, making the listener feel as if they were in the middle of the story. As I said, this was my first time listening to Michael Lesley, but I will definitely be looking out for more audiobooks with him. He brought the story to life in a very entertaining way.

I liked this short story where Cosmo and Madeo, despite their family, try to carve out some time for themselves and date. This is not so easy when something always comes up. I enjoyed the story. I was immersed in the Magi world with all the injustices. There was drama and angst, as well as discrimination. And there is still a painful past to deal with. The world of humans, shifters and magi is set up in an interesting way and there is still daily discrimination against the lowest class. I really like Cosmo, who recognizes these injustices well and who wants to do something about it. Madeo is just adorable. An interesting as well as sweet story.
CJ Storm has also narrated the previous volumes in the series and he did a great job. I love how he brings out Madeo's and Cosmo's personalities. He brought them both to life and I really enjoyed the sweet moments between Cosmo and Madeo.
