It’s Christmas time at the compound and Jasmine, mate of Silas Knight and Alpha Bitch in the nation, has decided it’s time for the kids to learn about the holiday. Plans are underway for a huge carnival full of games, music and family fun. It’s not until an unexpected guest arrives that Jasmine realizes she and Silas have missed critical elements in their children’s education. La Patron’s Christmas is a novella which may be read alone, however, it is a continuation of the La Patron, Alphas Alpha series. To understand the depth of the relationships between Jasmine, Silas, Asia, Angus and Hawke, I suggest you read the following books. BirthRight, book one is a free read and sets the tone for the series.
I live in the southeast and enjoy reading and writing all things paranormal. Nothing is more relaxing than cracking open a new adventure in a new world.
I love paranormal tales and characters in general and shifter stories in particular. Throw in the romantic element, strong Alpha characters who bend beneath the power of love and I’m over the moon. Sighs…
This was a sweet Christmas story where Silas and Jasmine's pups learn about life and how to get along with other people when Sarita and Malfius came into there lives. I loved how Jasmine explained to her pups why Sarita was the way she was. The pups also got a lesson about the real reason for the Christmas season. Even Jasmine was touched with how Silas explained how Christ is the perfect gift.
As always, I love Jasmine and Silas' strong bond and love for each other. They are wonderful parents just as they are great leaders for their pack.
This next story in the "La Patron's" series was wonderful. I don't think I ever cried from the previous books before but this one had me teary eyed.
Jasmine is very excited because she gets to share Christmas with the Wolves for the first time, so she is going all out (my kind of woman, I love Christmas too). Everyone is on board and excited well except for Silas he has lived so long and to him its just another day, a pagan holiday at that for him and with all of the security breaches and attacks against the other Wolves he is definitely not feeling in the holiday spirit.
Alpha Cameron (Silas Godson) has caught some rogue shifters who had 2 kidnapped (children/pups) after killing them and bringing them to the compound. Silas has them evaluated and checked over, their names are Milfius and Sarita two children scared witless and just trying to survive being snatched. Only Milfius knows who he is but Sarita has no clue. She is tough, poor child had to be she has been mistreated badly and Milfius just was trying to get along to survive. The children being found saved their lives but they have a road ahead of them.
Christmas Eve and then Christmas Day in full swing, everyone learns the true meaning of Christmas. You will laugh and cry with this amazing story in the series. I absolutely loved it. For me I will find out where Sarita fits in, the mystery may have been solved in Hawke and Asia's spin off story "Sword Series" which I have when will begin reading soon. All I can say is if you have never read a book by author Sydney Addae, you are clearly missing out. I highly recommend her series "La Patron Series", "Sword Series" and her latest one "La Patron KnightForce". You won't regret it and she will become an automatic 1-Click for you as too.
This was an awesome story! It connected to Sword of Mercy and that was an unexpected bonus! I so enjoyed the "talk" Rone and Rese had with their younger siblings about respect. I applaud the show of love, respect and commitment Silas showed Jasmine by including her faith and the true meaning of Christmas.
Thank you Sydney for this wonderful gift on Christmas.
Great Christmas present. So wonderful catching up with La Patron, Jasmine and family. Loved Christmas lesson, lesson in respect from Rese & Rone to quads. And David-little Silas (more so than others...love how he commands others). Impatiently waiting for next installment.
The pack , learning the reason for the season! This book made me cry more than once. Loved it! I love this whole series, I've read it at least six times. But this book touches you!
Great job Sydney this novella was awesome and I loved the Christmas theme. I feel as if I too am a integral part of the Patrons den. Can't wait for the next story. Fan4Life!
Jasmine and Silas eek out a magnificent holiday season with their pups. Teaching them more of their core values and embracing their ever-growing family.
I love how this family continues to draw me in. From Silas' adjustments to Jasmine's strength. It is such a love fest. I am always rooting for peace for the Knight family .
Even this short story was good! It seems to me that maybe this author is really Jasmine the mate of La Patron! And she's telling her story. I was really moved at the love and understanding the author put into this story. Christmas was brought to the wolf pack's all over the state's because of the love in La Patron's family/den. This truly was a moving story and added to the next story. This author has a great cast of characters and uses them in a way that let's the reader know and understand them. Just cause I'm reading and reviewing this in June...Merry Christmas from my den to your den!
wonderful to help catch up with the characters from the la patron series. it's a good reminder true meaning of Christmas without the craziness. The children of Silas and Jasmine Knight are growing up and we get to see how they are growing and responding to the things around them. Miss Sydney Addae does not disappoint with this quickly for the holiday. we get to see and feel the atmosphere perfect settings within the family den and pack. This was an enjoyable for this time of year or truly for anytime.
Sydney Addae has done it again! I loved the short read related to the La Patron series. I'm so glad things are looking up for Hawk's pups. I'm so at awe with David, one of the La Patrons pups. He looks like he will soon come into his own. He will make a Great Alpha real soon. He may even grow up to be the next La Patron. This is a book that I will refer to others. However, I feel you should read the first 2 series to understand where we are with this read.
A Novella in the La Patron series This is a lovely Christmas Novella that continues the story of Jasmine and Silas and how they teach the cubs and all the wolves about the human tradition of Christmas. The cubs are now of an age that they need to think about others that are not part of their family circle. Christmas is a great time to do it. The future of the wolf nation is starting to look good, and the Liege is nowhere to be seen.
This is a review for books 1 thru 3 and La Patron's Christmas. I give it a solid 5. This is an imaginative, awesome story with fantastic characters. I read the first 6 books of the La Patron series and couldn't put them down and I had to continue on with La Patron's Sword until there were no more books in this series to read so far! This series could continue forever and I would continue to read it. Great series and I highly recommend it.
This is a sweet holiday story and a terrific addition to a great series.This was a wonderful way to get the true meaning of Christmas .I just love a holiday story and you're going to love this one as well.
Just finished reading, if it wasn't late I'd start reading it again. Wonderful story with good life lessons we all can benefit from. Sydney Addae you rock! I've said it before, if you haven't started this series you're missing out on some good reading. Start today!
I liked this book. I liked the introduction of Sarita and being able to see more of the kids personalities. It was entertaining but the books are starting to feel the same, nothing really exciting. I would like to see more of the characters because the basic plot remains the same.
What a sweet Christmas story for La Patron's den! Jasmine rocks because she always has a six sense as to what cements her family. Bringing two cultures together into the fold made me wipe tears from my eyes.
Awesome Jasmine taught Silas and his wolves about the aspects of a Christian Christmas. The children experienced a tragedy and had their first taste of being compassionate and caring about others. Even Silas enjoyed the new Christmas experience.
Merry Happy, this is a wonderful addition to the series, it gives a wonderful glimpse into the life and thoughts of Silas Jasmine and there children. I love the whole Christmas message that Jasmine is tiring to teach her children and the whole of the wolf nation.
This was a great read, I love the traditions of both the wolf nation and the human Christian aspects of the story and the pups intelligence to understand the true meaning of giving.
