ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 26, 2021
It’s almost Christmas, and Florida gray wolf shifter and veterinarian Gabrielle Lowe has been talked into going with her friends to a ski resort in Silver Town, Colorado. But when her two jaguar girlfriends are held up on a mission, it not only leaves Gabrielle alone for the holidays, but also out of her element at the snowy resort. Determined to make the best of it, Gabrielle takes a dip in the lodge’s heated pool–after it’s closed, of course…
Gray wolf shifter Landon Wolff is part owner of the ski lodge and he’s got enough on his plate getting ready for the annual influx of Christmas visitors. The last thing he needs is a rebel, indulging in a midnight swim long after the pool is closed. Just as he’s about to throw the rule breaker out of the pool he realizes that Gabby is also a wolf. Suddenly, all the rules change… Maybe Landon will finally find the wolf he’s always wanted to share the holidays with.

REVIEW:JINGLE BELL WOLF is the second instalment in Terry Spear’s contemporary, adult WOLFF BROTHERS paranormal, romance series-a spin off from the author’s Silver Town Wolf series. This is lodge owner/ski instructor gray wolf shifter Landon Wolff, and veterinarian/ gray wolf shifter Gabrielle Lowe’s story line. JINGLE BELL WOLF can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary. There is a slight cross-over with the author’s Heart of the Jaguar series, a series that has had no new instalments for several years. You do not have to have read either of the previously mentioned series to follow the current time line.
Told from third person perspectives JINGLE BELL WOLF follows veterinarian and gray wolf shifter Dr. Gabrielle Lowe as she embarks on a one-week Christmas vacation at a shifter wolf owned ski resort in Silver Town, Colorado, a vacation arranged by her friends and jaguar shifters Odette and Zelda Bellamy. Odette and Zelda are JAG special forces operatives, and are currently on assignment in Florida leaving our heroine to vacation on her own but Gabrielle is not alone for long when she trespasses after hours, and finds herself facing lodge co-owner and shifter Landon Wolf. Immediately attracted to one another, Landon spends the week with our heroine, a week wherein our couple find themselves falling in love, and Gabrielle if offered the position of lead veterinarian in Silver Town, Colorado.
Meanwhile, Odette and Zelda’s assignment continues to perplex the JAG special forces operatives until a familiar face is recognized in Silver Town, Colorado.
The relationship between Landon and Gabrielle is one of immediate attraction but Silver Town’s female population is greatly outnumbered by the shifter males, and in this, Gabrielle begins to attract the attention of all unmated shifter men. In an effort to woo our story line heroine, Landon spends most of his time with Gabrielle Lowe, swimming and skiing, time where he finds himself falling in love. The $ex scenes are limited but passionate.
There is a large ensemble cast of colorful secondary and supporting characters including Landon’s sibings: Blake and his mate Nicole, sisters Kayla and Roxie; shopkeeper Maxine Fox, tea shop owner Silva; Pack leaders Darien and Lelandi Silver; Gabrielle’s former fling Brando Redfern, as well as several characters previously introduced in the Silver Town Wolf series.
JINGLE BELL WOLF is a story of family and friendships, relationships and love. Like many of Terry’s previous story lines, much of the premise of JINGLE BELL WOLF reads like filler wherein the reader is privy to little UBIs, an infinitely detailed world building that has little to do with the overall story line. The premise is lively and enjoyable; the romance is captivating; the characters are energetic and interesting.
