Blurb: Other than working the front desk of a gay bathhouse in Denver, Brian McKay is a bit of a recluse. At the best of times, his social life consists of work, role-playing games at a local toyshop, and making YouTube videos with his Teddy Bear hamsters. The arrival of the holidays—with the annoying music, Christmas shopping, and all the reminders of how he disappointed his father—just reinforces his reclusive nature.
When James Olsen, a gorgeous daddy bear who frequents the bathhouse, notices him, Brian is at a loss. He’s not proud of his own bear status or his struggle with weight. The idea that James has interest in him beyond an easy hookup is more than Brian can fathom. But with a little bit of holiday magic, James might help Brian learn to accept Christmas again—and himself.

Review: Brian had never had a Christmas he enjoyed until he met the man of his dreams. James was the man Brian wanted, but never thought he could have. It looks to me like he just might have received the perfect Christmas present ever.
I have to admit that I was not as happy about all the sex in this story, which is strange. However I was just looking for something really cheesy I suppose. I did however really like these characters. They just came off perfect to me and I would love to read more about them. This was a very cute little story that was a lot of fun to read. I love how much humor is in these little stories, and how much story there actually is in them.

There are still a few stories left to read, but this one was awesome. The hamsters *laughs* I wish the YT videos were real.
