The Fox Who Came For Christmas: A Men's Holiday Romance
Some Christmas wishes take sixteen years to come true...
Tech billionaire Dan Porter had it all figured out - until his mother's Christmas Eve wedding forces him back to Silver Creek, Wisconsin. The small town he left behind hasn't changed much, from the crooked welcome sign to the memories haunting every storefront. But one place, the Lucky Fox bar, holds more than just the Kimiko Hiroi, Dan's high school sweetheart, whose otherworldly grace still takes his breath away.
Between organizing the town's charity events and running her grandmother's bar, the last thing Kimmi needs is Dan Porter's return stirring up old feelings. Especially when he's only here for a month. She's built a life in Silver Creek, and billionaires don't give up Silicon Valley success stories for small-town romance.
As Christmas draws closer, Dan finds himself caught in a spell he thought he'd outgrown - community traditions, family obligations, and the undeniable pull of the one woman who knows his true heart. Each moment with Kimmi makes his carefully constructed world feel more like smoke and mirrors.
Some holiday magic can't be ignored. Some hearts refuse to stay frozen. And sometimes the best Christmas gifts come wrapped in second chances - if you're brave enough to open them.
The Fox Who Came For Christmas is a contemporary second-chance holiday romance, written for men who secretly love Hallmark movies but wish they had more depth, heart, and just a touch of the supernatural.

Overall, Disappointing
The authors stated purpose was to write ‘a hallmark movie for men’.
I guess in the aspect of hallmark movies being bad, he’s met that challenge.
The MC is a billionaire (of course) who is just incredibly dumb. He left home 16 years ago. And a woman who loved him. And apparently spent 16 years waiting for him.
It’s never really expounded why it is that the MC refuses to be home. He’s also kind of an asshole, having abandoned his younger half sister.
The Love interest is a magical fox girl? Which has… almost no bearing on the story, and realistically, adds nothing to the story.
The entire thing is murky in the exposition, and the MC’s multibillion dollar company is apparently run in his absence by the programming equivalent of a fainting goat.
The overall idea feels ok. But the pacing, development, and motivations all feel weak and forced.

Cute Story
Well written as a Hallmark type of Christmas story. The storytelling was excellent and characters appropriate and well developed.
It was easy to read with no spelling, grammar or word problems. Proofreading appears to have been completed satisfactorily. Leon West met his goal of creating an interesting family friendly tale.

Incredible!
Due to the season, my wife has hallmark on any time a hockey game isn't going. This story catches hallmark perfectly. Outstanding storytelling and an emotional experience for anyone who's left a small town behind. It's perfect. Thank you, Leon West, for writing this.

I really enjoyed the story and the characters. It was surprisingly emotional, and I really felt for the guy and his struggles.

If you took the fact that the girl is a kitsune out of the book, it would hardly change anything. Still, I was amused by it.
