Moonbeams & Mistletoe: M/M Mpreg Shifter Romance

Double-Booked for the Holidays

by Colbie Dunbar

Witness protection was supposed to keep him safe, not steal his heart.

Human omega Indigo expects a safe house while waiting to testify against his boss, not a luxury mountain lodge, or Riven, an attractive security liaison who makes his pulse race.

Indigo is unaware the lodge is home to a wolf shifter pack, that Riven is the future Alpha, or the moment they met, Riven recognizes him as his fated mate.

As Christmas approaches, Riven struggles to reveal the truth. But when Indigo accidentally witnesses a full moon run on Christmas Eve, he’s confused and he flees.

Now Riven has to show his mate that their bond is unbreakable and Indigo must choose whether to trust his heart or his fear.

Moonbeams & Mistletoe is a steamy MM mpreg Christmas romance featuring fated mates, protective alphas, and finding home in unexpected places. If you love a human who has no clue shifters exist, a shifter with a meddling wolf, ugly Christmas sweaters, strategically placed mistletoe, true love, fated mates and of course, a cute baby, this book is for you.

Moonbeams & Mistletoe is part of the multi author Double-Booked for the Holidays series. Each book can be read as a standalone but why not enjoy the whole series. This is the story of Indigo a human omega and Riven an alpha wolf shifter. The blurb gives you a great idea of what to expect in the story. I loved this story because Indigo felt and acted so real with learning about shifters. Riven and Indigo had a lot to figure out. This was a fun low angst story that fits the holiday season. I really enjoyed the story and the world that this series has created. I would definitely recommend this book and series.

He was supposed to be hiding. Instead, he found a future.

When human omega Indigo enters witness protection, he expects anonymity, not a remote luxury lodge run by strangers with intense stares and secrets thicker than the snowfall. Assigned a quiet cabin and a too-watchful “liaison” named Riven, Indigo's more than a little suspicious. But the mountain isn't just hiding him. It's waking something in him he never saw coming.

Riven is the future Alpha of a wolf shifter pack, torn between duty and the pull of fate. From the moment he meets Indigo, he knows this human is his mate. But revealing the truth risks more than just pack secrets. As the bond between them deepens, Riven fights instinct and fear, trying to protect his world and the one person who feels like home.

As winter deepens and their connection grows stronger, a single moment threatens to tear it all apart. The truth changes everything. But love doesn’t disappear. It waits, quiet and steady, until they’re ready to try again.

Months later, Indigo and Riven are building something real. Their first Christmas brings sweaters, laughter, and the kind of future neither of them imagined.

Indigo grows from a cautious, city-bound omega into a confident partner and parent who finds strength in change. Riven learns to lead not just with duty, but with vulnerability and love. Their relationship becomes a bond built on trust, shared purpose, and choosing each other every day.

A steamy, MM, fated mates, forced proximity, secret identity, small town, mpreg Christmas romance filled with building tension, emotional intimacy, found family, and a protective alpha, exploring identity, trust, belonging, transformation, and love. It’s about discovering connection in unexpected places, choosing love when it’s hardest, and building a home through quiet moments, bold choices, and the courage to stay.

The Elevator Pitch: A wolf shifter bound by duty meets a human omega hiding in the mountains, and neither expects the spark that ignites between them. What starts as a protective assignment turns into something deeper, with secrets, snowstorms, and a bond too strong to fight. Set against a wintery lodge backdrop, it’s a steamy, fated mates romance where love rewrites the rules.

He hasn’t told Indigo anything about wolves and the mate thing but one night he catches a wolf coming up to him and changes into Riven and doesn’t like that he has been lied to so asks for some space. He has to go back to testify so Riven goes after Indigo and steps in when Indigo is threatened and Indigo goes home with Riven.

Mistakenly sent to a lodge safehouse while waiting to provide evidence against his embezzling employer, human omega Indigo is installed in Moonridge Lodge. Typically reserved for the use of shifters, his presence throws the staff into a tizzy. When Riven, his bodyguard while Indigo is at the lodge, first scents Indigo, he knows they are mates. Now, he'll have to figure out how to court a human. Being a powerful shifter and the future leader of his pack, he doesn't have much insight into human dating and mating rituals.

Days shared cooking, hiking and enjoying the lodge bring Indigo and Riven closer. However, when Indigo accidentally finds out about Riven's shifter nature, he freaks out and runs.

As the days pass and Indigo learns about shifter culture, his understanding and need for Riven develops. The two learning about each other and how to make a relationship work is very sweet. Riven, while physically strong and protective, doesn't try to dominate his mate. He instead wants a true partnership and will do anything for Indigo. These two men together, while different species and from different backgrounds work well together. Indigo brings a bit of lightness and fun to the somewhat serious Riven and Riven provides the companionship, stability and safety that Indigo has missed from his life.

A supportive shifter pack, a bit of courtroom drama and a cute baby round out the story for a really enjoyable holiday romance read.

Four stars.

This book is part of the multi-author Double-Booked For The Holidays series. It is a standalone read. Each book features a different couple. This is the story of Indigo and Riven. Riven is placed in witness protection after he identifies his bosses misdeeds. When the luxury resort he was supposed to stay in is changed, he ends up at a resort that is home to a wolf shifter pack. They were expecting a shifter in trouble but instead got Indigo. He is assigned security by the lodge to keep him safe. Riven is the future alpha of the pack and is shocked when he walks in and sees a human and his fated mate all in one. Indigo doesn't understand why he is so drawn to Riven. They both know that he is only there for a short time. But Riven is hoping he can convince Indigo to stay with him forever. All he has to do is make Riven fall in love with him and gently explain the world of shifters and alphas. This makes for an interesting Christmas. The book is written well and is easy to read. I enjoyed watching Indigo and how he reacted to things. There are some trials and tribulations in their future but a HEA is on the way. I enjoyed this book.

Indigo is in a witness protection program, but the FBI has screwed up and has sent him to a shifter resort. Riven has been assigned to him, but Indigo's scent triggers something in him...Indigo is his fated mate.

[Penumbra · Rating 4 out of 5]

Moonbeams and Mistletoe is part of the ‘Double-Booked for the Holidays’ collection written by various authors. This stars Indigo, a human omega, and Riven, an Alpha wolf shifter. This is told in first person from Indigo and Riven’s pov.

The blurb gives a brief rundown of the plot. Indigo is under witness protection and is accidentally sent to a shifter luxury resort to wait until he’s called back for his boss’s trial. The shifters at the resort were expecting another shifter under witness protection, so they’re surprised when Indigo shows up. They must be careful not to let slip that they’re shifters but one day Indigo is confronted with Riven shifting in front of him. Indigo’s shocked reaction and rejection of Riven and the shifter world was one of the more realistic human reactions written by this author team and I liked how it played out with Riven. I did wonder why Indigo was still comfortable being around the other shifters considering Riven told Indigo they were all wolf shifters. It didn’t make sense to me that Indigo wasn’t afraid of them but only of Riven. The story goes on with Indigo returning to his home for the trial, then Riven and Indigo coming together again, and pregnancy.

I liked both Riven and Indigo and I could believe in them as a couple. I did find it unbelievable however that Indigo processed his fear so quickly and once he returned home, decided he wanted to be with Riven again. Maybe that’s because the authors had Indigo tell his thoughts and feelings in a monologue instead of showing readers his feelings, so I found Indigo’s change of heart to be too fast and too unbelievable.

I did enjoy how the plot played out. It’s low conflict that’s easily fixed. The story slowly builds up to Christmas. I’d consider it more of a winter season story rather than Christmas.

Moonbeams and Mistletoe is a fast, wintery read. I give it 4 Stars.

I've read a few of the books in the Double-booked for the Holidays shared setting series and they generally include an intro with Branson (the harried clerk) who accidentally double-books humans and shifters together in the various cabins at the Winter Wonderland Wilderness Lodge. Each story so far has been a bit of fluffy romance as the double-booked strangers get to know each other. This story did not follow that pattern: it does not actually take place at the same location and our main characters are not double-booked together. Indigo is meant to be hiding out before a trial for his boss in the city and through a mix-up ends up staying at a pack run resort, so instead of the random strangers and random shifters mixed together vibe I was expecting, I got one human and a (gossipy) pack of shifters that all know each other. Not to say this was a bad story, it just was not what I thought I would be getting. Poor Indigo gets a weird vibe during his stay since he's supposed to be practically in witness protection, but everyone seems to know who he is and what's up with those wolves he keeps seeing/hearing? Most of the side characters were quite nice (though I did not like Riven's uncle) and Riven himself was a sweetheart (though he should have told Indigo he was a shifter much sooner than he did in my opinion). There's a cute, happy ending for all so definitely a good choice for anyone looking for a happy romance that isn't too long.

"The man walking toward me had to have been ordered from a bodyguard catalogue."

This is the fifth book I've read in the multi-author series, Double-Booked for the Holidays. This one was written by Colbie Dunbar and when I saw this on Booksprout it was an immediate grab. I love this series and I normally don't pass up anything by this author.

This book was not quite the same as some of the others I've read in this series. In the other stories I read rooms were double booked and strangers were sharing rooms with only one bed. In this story we have a human that was a witness to an embezzlement under the FBI's protection over the Christmas holiday. The human was scheduled to be at the same lodge with the double booked rooms, Winter Wonderland Wilderness Lodge, but at the last moment the FBI arranged for him to stay at a wolf pack owned lodge called Moonridge Lodge. And that's where the story begins.

This story was the total package at 132 pages which was amazing to me!!!

Fated mates, alpha wolf/human omega, not quite the safe house he expected, a shocking reveal, sometimes you just need deer jerky to make it all better, mpreg.

[Kitchen Sink Books · Rating 5 out of 5]

Indigo is a human omega who is in witness protection over the Christmas period. He outed his boss to the authorities after he found evidence the man was stealing money from the company he worked in. He's been told he will be at a resort, tucked away, comfortable and safe. He is taken to a beautiful mountain lodge and assigned his own personal security detail. It is absolutely not what he was expecting.

Riven was not expecting Indigo. Riven is the Alpha apparent to his pack, works at the lodge, as they all do, and occasionally steps in to be security for shifters in witness protection. An apparent mix up has him protecting a human, one he very quickly realises is his mate but one who he doesn't think he could have any chance with.

Riven truly wants to tell Indigo the truth but struggles to know how to do it. When Indigo accidentally sees him shift from wolf into man shock is too tame a word for how he feels. Betrayed comes into it, feeling that Riven has been lying to him. Now he's torn, wanting to know more about shifters but needing time to think and before he knows it he's back in the city and testifying. But he can't forget Riven and the time they had together. Riven cannot forget either and is given an ultimatum by his pack. Making his way to the city he is more determined than ever to show Indigo his every word and feeling are true.

A wonderful story, a short read, filled with passion, festivity, wonder and a charming sense of family bonds.

Moonbeams and Mistletoe is part of the Double-Booked for the Holidays multiauthor series. Sort of. Human omega, Indigo, found out his boss was an embezzler and WitSec put him into Witness Protection until the trial. He was headed to the Winter Wonderland Wilderness Lodge, but since all 150 cabins were overfull (Know anything about that, Branson?), his handler switched accommodations. Moonridge Lodge is used to providing protective services. For shifters. It's a shock tp the staff that Indigo is human. Riven, who is slated to be Alpha of the wolfpack that runs the lodge, is shocked and dismayed to find that his mate is human.
Unlike most of Dunbar's clueless omegas, the reveal doesn't go well. Riven's wolf terrifies their mate. Riven even did some research which revealed that human/shifter matings almost always don't work. But things always work out in this author's omegaverses,and it's little details like this that make them original, rather than cookie cutter. As does Riven's Alpha uncle not automatically welcoming to his heir's mate. Riven's wolf gets some of the best lines, which is a Dunbar staple, but their misunderstanding why their human side isn't just marking and mating their human and his pouting provide laughs.
There is a trial. Indigo accepts his fated one. Surprise (totally not!), there's a baby.
If you're in the mood for sweet omegaverse, low angst, high (high) heat, Colbie Dunbar is the author for you! Fun, quickly read, always ready for more.

When Indigo is sent into witness protection at Moonridge Lodge, he is put under the care of Riven as his bodyguard, cook and companion for the duration of Indigo’s stay. There is an attraction between the two, as Riven is a wolf shifter and he recognizes Indigo is his mate. Indigo has no knowledge of shifters and Riven is not sure how to share this information with Indigo, deciding to let them get to know each other first. Unfortunately, just before Riven can reveal his wolf to Indigo, Indigo sees him in wolf form, changing to human, and freaks out. Riven only has a certain length of time from his pack elders to convince Indigo to stay as his mate. When Indigo has to return to the city to testify, Riven must take his chance to claim his mate or face a life of loneliness without him.

This is a sweet addition to the Double-booked for the holidays series featuring shifters finding their fated mates over the Christmas season. Stories are interesting and engaging with relatable characters meeting at resorts in unusual circumstances, finding their match, mating and with little ones on the way. Although each story has the same basic premise, each situation is unique enough that each is interesting and engaging on its own, drawing the reader into a winter wonderland with love in the air, just the thing to curl up with on a cold winter’s day.

[Susan Anne · Rating 5 out of 5]

Moonbeams and Mistletoe by Colbie Dunbar adheres to some shifter/clueless human tropes (oh no, he’s a wolf, I must flee) and turns some on their heads (the new heir is female rather than male). It was an enjoyable read for someone who has been reading shifter stories for a long time (thank you LKH). I liked that human Indigo’s first reaction to finding out the world is different than he was brought up to believe is to research the new information (as would I). His wolf mate Riven knows there is nothing to research, as finding a mate is all instinct. I respected him taking the time to romance Indigo until they both gave in to their attraction. This made their parting harder on both because they knew what they were missing. And it also made Indigo’s willingness to return to the mountains from the city understandable. As someone who chose mountains over the biggest city, I once again could relate. While I found Indigo an attractive character, Riven was not unappealing. For an alpha, he was not overbearing toward Indigo and was a total marshmallow toward his daughter. This review contains a slight spoiler - the gender of the child - but it was used to show both the author’s flexibility with wolf shifter canon and Riven’s flexibility as alpha. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Short but addictive so hang on you won’t put it down until the last page has been turned. Indigo a human omega in witness protection expecting a hidden location but what he got was a remote luxury lodge with strangers so intense it has him questioning why they put him there, especially with all the secrets, but at least he has his own cabin and two watchful liaisons but something unexplainable is going on with the mountain. Riven the soon to be alpha of the wolf shifter pack trying to live up to duty but fate is pulling him in another direction he meets his fated mate in the hidden human but he can’t say anything it will risk his pack but the more he is around his mate the more he is torn trying to protect his pack and his mate the one that makes his heart has come home. The magnetic pull is there from the moment his human arrived on their mountain and the more time the spend with each other the closer they grow and the stronger their bond grows but can he balance the pack, will he tell his mate the truth, will he accept the truth, will he remain protected up in the mountain, and is this their chance at happiness?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️mA Perfect Blend of Magic, Heat, and Holiday Heart!

Moonbeams & Mistletoe delivered everything I love about Christmas romances and then sprinkled in the perfect dose of shifter magic. Indigo is such an endearing omega—vulnerable yet brave, totally unaware of the world he’s just stepped into, and impossible not to root for. Pair him with Riven, the protective future Alpha who recognizes his fated mate the second he sees him, and you get a swoony, irresistible holiday pairing.

The setting is pure winter wonderland—snow, sweaters, mistletoe, and a lodge that feels like a hug. The slow reveal of secrets, the tension of the full moon run, and the heartbreak of Indigo’s fear felt so real. When he flees, my chest ached. Riven’s devotion, patience, and determination to bring his mate home made the reunion even more perfect.

If you love mm mpreg romances with emotion, charm, and just the right amount of knotty fun, this is an absolute must-read for the holidays. I devoured it in one sitting and wanted to reread it the moment I finished.

Indigo enters witness protection expecting a simple safe house, not a luxurious lodge run by a wolf‑shifter pack — or Riven, the future Alpha who instantly recognises him as his fated mate. Indigo has no idea shifters exist until he accidentally witnesses the pack’s full‑moon run on Christmas Eve and panics. Now Riven must convince him their bond is real, and Indigo has to choose between fear and the growing trust he feels for the man determined to protect him.

This novella has such a lovely pull between Indigo and Riven — that quiet, steady tug of a bond that’s more than instinct. Even when Indigo needs space to process the truth about shifters and the mate bond, Riven gives it to him without hesitation, trusting that what they share will bring him back when he’s ready. I really appreciated that their connection wasn’t just the mate bond but genuine affection and growing love. The story blends warmth, emotion, and a touch of danger in a way that feels effortless. It’s easy to read, easy to feel, and easy to root for these two as they navigate fear, trust, and the promise of something real. This was an MM story with mature content and set in the omegaverse with MPREG.

This is a cute shifter story, but I thoroughly enjoyed reading. Indigo is a human male who is placed in witness protection because he caught his boss embezzling funds. he has taken into the mountains to a beautiful resort where he has someone with him at all times. What he doesn’t know is that he is at a shifter resort and the bodyguard who is with him is the alpha elect. Riven is an alpha wolf shifter and is the alpha elect. These two are fated mates but a wolf shifter and a human is very rare in their pack history. It was acute story of how Indigo knew he was leaving after he attended the court case where his boss was found guilty but before he leaves, he accidentally discovers, that Riven is a wolf shifter and he’s hurt that he had this secret from him. They have a lot to work through, but eventually he discovers his pregnant and they work things out and go onto live happily ever after.

I was given an advanced copy of this book to read and I am reviewing with my honest and fair opinion.

[Cindy · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is part of the double booked series, but it is also not really part of it. Because this time the cabin isn't double booked. Indigo is under witness protection, but there is a mix up, so he ends up at the wrong resort where normally shifters are when they need protection. Riven, the alpha heir, is his protector and his mate. But of course Indigo doesn't know shifters exist till he sees Riven shifting on Christmas eve. This rocks his world, although before that Riven already rocked his world, because of the attraction between them.
It is a feelgood read about two strong men who don't give up. I love how Riven gives Indigo space, but also is there for him and even comes to the city to be there for him. This story doesn't stop shortly after Christmas, but it goes on till next Christmas showing how things go further between those two. I like that a lot, so I don't have to wonder what will happen next.

When Indigo went to authorities about his boss embezzling, they decided to put him in a safe house until the trial. A confusing last minute change ended up with him in a cabin in a luxury lodge in the mountains with a gorgeous security liaison.
Human Omega Indigo doesn’t know that said lodge is owned by a pack of wolf shifters, that he ended up there in error and that his security liaison Rivan is the future pack Alpha. And he certainly doesn’t know that Rivan is his mate. Rivan scented him the moment he walked into the lodge, but he doesn’t know how to tell him about the supernatural world, even after they end up knotted together.
But when Rivan goes for a pack run and Indigo decides to walk back from the lodge to his cabin, it all falls apart as Indigo sees him shift.
This book is also part of the Double Booked for the Holidays special and is sweet and spicy with an HEA

'Riven. I repeated the name in my head. What had I done to deserve a Christmas present like this? I must have been very good this year.
“I'll be staying in the cabin with you.”
Goody. Merry Christmas to me.'

I really enjoyed this book. I loved both Indigo and Riven. I loved that their first meeting was through Indigo's eyes- and he was very happy indeed with how things turned out. Indigo wasn't what Riven and the others were expecting (a human in witness protection, not the shifter they were supposed to get)- let alone his fated mate. I was hooked from that moment on. I loved the dynamic between them and the way their relationship developed- though Indigo was catching feelings fast, and Riven was unsure how or if he could reveal himself and his pack as shifters to someone who didn't know they existed. A cute holiday romance. 4 stars

[Bianca · Rating 5 out of 5]

Indigo and Riven story was interesting with a wolf shifter and human pairing, the situation that brought them together, and a very hard earned happiness.
Their chemistry is off the charts, they were adorable together, and their time spent together was precious.
Fear and secrets create a wedge between them that leads to a temporary separation.
Determination, love, faith, and need to protect creates the perfect opportunity for them to smooth things, to be open about everything, and to embrace the new light that was offered to them.
I adored the bundle of joy that brings them happiness, and the experiences they had as a family.
I enjoyed the story, and I’m looking forward to the next adventure.

I absolutely enjoyed reading this book. Indigo was in a form of witness protection after he discovered that his boss/mentor was embezzling money from the company. Riven was the apparent alpha of the wolf pack that was currently sheltering Indigo. The lodge where Indigo was staying was meant to be housing a different witness, so they were surprised when Indigo, a human, showed up. Riven knew immediately that Indigo was his mate, but he didn't know how to tell him that he was a shifter. On Christmas Eve, Indigo saw him shift and was terrified. Riven wasn't willing to give him up, so he followed him to the city when he went back to testify.

Talk about an oopsy! Indigo wasn't supposed to end up at Riven cabin lodging for his informal WitSec, but there he was. Good thing for Riven, since Indigo was his mate... his very human mate. I found the banter and how Riven diverted Indigo's questions entertaining. The involvement of the pack was endearing as well, until Indigo saw something he shouldn't have. He has a pattern of that! I must say, Riven's uncle is that character you love to hate. This story has several threads that run simultaneously yet it reads easily, with no confusion. It's part of a multi-author series and I highly recommend it.

Sometimes it's hard to put a new spin on mpreg, but I liked this one. First, human omega Indigo is taken into witness protection before he testifies against his boss. Only he accidentally winds up on pack land, due to a paperwork mix-up. But he's lucky enough to be assigned wolf shifter alpha Riven as his bodyguard. Who also happens to be Indigo's fated mate. But Indigo has no idea about shifters and is scared when he meets Riven's wolf. It takes him a while to accept RIven's nature, and if it hadn't been a romance I might have suspected he wouldn't be able to, which made the story much more interesting to me as a reader. I really liked this one.

Delightful! Indigo is in witness protection. A federal mixup has him under Riven's guardianship. When introduced, Riven identifies Indigo as his mate. Life gets complicated because Indigo is human and Riven is a wolf shifter. Sweet story of Riven, having to make choices of when to tell Indigo of shifters and their mate bond. Then that he Riven is next Alpha. Complications, perceived danger, fear and secrets drive this story. Indigo is a nice guy and Riven is a sweet alpha. Great flow, fun supporting characters. Great cover art! Good story, nicely done. I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This was a cute, low-angst Christmas read. I enjoyed seeing these two come together and I loved that we got to see them prepare for their family to expand. The final part showing their second Christmas together and with baby was especially sweet, and gave all the holiday feel-good vibes. There was a background plot involving Indigo being a witness that was very minor, so if you’re looking for a plot-heavy action story, this probably isn’t for you. But if you’re looking for a cozy Christmas romance with low angst and medium heat, I’d give this a try.

I will say this was a little quirky....but entertaining and bittersweet all the same time...I enjoyed it.

This double booked for the holiday was not exactly booking same cabin but unique that Indigo (human omega) was thrown in a situation he didn't understand...exactly...sharing a cabin with Riven (alpha shifter)...his "bodyguard" until he's able to be free to live his life. Well too much weird stuff happens and we have a climatic moment that Indigo has to decide whether he wants jump on board and trust and love or lose out on happiness. There is a HEA and it was nice...very nice. I loved their journey.

What to do when your fated omega is human and have no idea that you're his fated mate or a wolf.
Indigo is under witness protection while waiting for the trial of his ex boss. It so happens that he is on his alpha's pack land, laying low in a beautiful cabin with his own personal guard Riven, said alpha.
Complications leads to Indigo running in the other direction. Riven can't stay away, following his omega to make things right.
A delightful christmas story with fated mates, Mpreg, and a big found family.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I liked how an error in booking leads to Riven finding his mate in Indigo. I liked how Indigo did what was right in reporting a crime. Riven and Indigo start a relationship before all truths come out. I'm glad Indigo accepts Riven's secret in the end and they fully commit. I liked how their pregnancy was handled and the advice. Once they were mated, the pack fully supported them.
