review 1: This is a cute and very short story about Evan, ayoung wizard who is on his own for Christmas in London. His neighbors - the lovely Mrs. Halfpenny (who provides him with Christmas dinner) and Kian Louarn (an intimidating member of the Wizard Guard) - are also around for the holiday. When Evan gets home on Christmas Eve, he finds an injured Kian on the floor in front of his door. Manners dictate that he invite him into his apartment as it's apparent that Kian will not be able to make it up to his apartment on the next floor. Kian's injury requires time to heal and Evan offers to share his Christmas dinner with him. Evan is amazed at how attractive Kian is now that he is not in his guard cloak and he can actually see him. It appears that Mrs. Halfpenny may have enhanced... more the Christmas dinner and Kian and Evan share more than roasted pork and potatoes ;)I would really like to read more about this world and Evan and Kian in the future
review 2: I love stories that have magic in them so when I first started reading, I was delighted to find out this story had it in abundance. I really liked how this felt almost like enemies to lovers but only because Kian gave off such a hostile attitude towards Evan. Evan was a lovely character so when he encounters Kian hurt, he could have just left him but decided to help him instead.As with the other stories in this Advent Calendar, this one was too short. While I found Evan and Kian together very hot, I really wish there had been more of them getting to know each other and seeing what happens next. I enjoyed the story very much, though, but I hope we get more books in this world in the future because I found it fascinating! less
