About this listen
One kiss under the mistletoe and now I’m hooked. I can’t get him out of my head… and I think I might like it.
Convincing my pride to have a holiday celebration was supposed to be a fun way to bring everyone together. But my plan went awry when my younger pride mate convinced everyone I needed a kiss. I hadn’t expected Ash to volunteer. And I certainly hadn’t expected him to kiss me on the lips and… linger.
Now, all I can think about is feeling his lips on mine again. Instead of planning gift giving and parties, I’m planning how to win Ash over. And what better way to convince him to spend time with me than to have him help me with my holiday plans?
The holidays are coming to the Ono-Nai house, and I only have one thing I’m wishing for this year—Ash.
A Holiday to Sustain Us is a fun MM urban fantasy companion story meant to be listened to AFTER A Purpose That Restores Us (The Magi Accounts 3). It’s from Charlie's perspective and takes place between books 3 and 4 of the main series. This is a companion novel, NOT a standalone, although the love story is resolved in this book.

The writing style is wonderful as always and the world is described in detail. Unlike the other books in the series, there isn't quite as much suspense as before. But that doesn't matter, because there are still memories that cause panic attacks and flashbacks that remind us of a not-so-good time.
The magician Ash experiences Christmas and all its holiday traditions for the first time in years. This was not allowed in the abusive Magi Compound.
Ash and Charlie's story begins with a kiss under mistletoe and then develops into so much more. In the end, I found Ash's gift to Charlie very touching. Basically, the novella is humorous with a great Christmas and funny moments. In the series, it's a more lighthearted book and it fits perfectly for Christmas. An entertaining book that I listened to in one go.
Zachary Zaba narrated the audiobook and he did a good job. I could usually tell the voices of the protagonists apart, although I found that some were very similar.

Not a stand-alone. You need to start with book one as the story is a continuation and well worth reading.
Great world-building and the characters have good backstories. We meet Charlie and Ash, who are among the lowest groups living in this new world. First, there are Humans, Shifters and then the Magi, the order of society. Charlie is a shifter who loves to dress femme, and Ash is a Magi.
Cosmo is the leader of a pride group of cat shifters and the Alpha leader of one of the task force groups; he's also the leader of the Shifter community. Both Charlie and Ash live in Cosmo's pride house.
This book brings together everyone to celebrate Christmas. Loved this additional book.
This book's complex relationships between the shifters and the Magi are wound effortlessly. Such a great read/listen.
Zachary Zaba did an amazing job of the narration. I did, however, have to speed up the narration to 1.20 on Audible, but this is usual for me.

I received this audiobook for free from GRR at my request. My review is my opinion and an honest review - neither the author nor GRR influenced my opinion.
A great addition to the series, with a xmas vibe.

Ash has never really celebrated Christmas. On the Magi compound, such things were forbidden. He’s been exposed to a bit of the magic of the season, but never had a full-on Christmas. Charlie and the rest of his pride aim to change that. They’re dedicated to making the holidays the best ever – especially for the motley crew they’ve taken in since last Christmas.
Trust has never been Ash’s strength, but as he settles into the pride house – and falls in love with Charlie - all that changes.
This story has a bit of violence – as is befitting the series. It also has so many little touching moments. I won’t mention all of them, but I will say the Ash’s gift to Charlie left me a little teary. Throw in rescue animals and a huge house of love, and you’ve got a great story. So glad I listened.
Zachary Zaba is a fantastic narrator and he did a great job with this series. I’m so glad I listened.

The narration was good, but some voices were a little similar, and sometimes I had to replay a section to remember who was speaking.
I received a free review copy and this is my voluntary, honest opinion.
Nice Holiday story with love and a little angst
