KIDS ARE VANISHING IN VICTORIAN LONDON. ONLY TOBY KNOWS WHY.
CAN HE SAVE THE CITY BEFORE FALLING VICTIM HIMSELF?

After twelve-year-old Toby Carter escapes a brutal workhouse at Christmas, he can't believe his good fortune. Adopted by a band of travelling performers called The Winter Freak Show who put on spellbinding shows each night, he finally believes he's found the family he always wanted. Then everything falls apart.

Children are disappearing throughout the city. Pretty soon, all evidence points to those Toby trusted the most and he finds himself caught up in a conspiracy far more sinister than he ever imagined. Defenceless and on the run, he's confronted with two options: uncover the kidnapper before another child falls victim, or stand by and watch as the shadowy criminal becomes unstoppable.

The fate of Christmas rests in the balance.

The Winter Freak Show is the first book in Daniel Parsons's spellbinding Twisted Christmas Trilogy. If you like vivid magic, fantastic creatures, and a race against time, then you'll love this thrilling fantasy adventure.All Rights Reserved

I Applied for a Delivery Job and Got Turned Into a Flying Reindeer?! by ThisAdamGuy

When Justin Flinchley loses his job the day after Thanksgiving, he thinks his life is over. Without money to pay rent, he'll be celebrating Christmas in the streets unless he can manage to find a new job by the end of the week. But in the middle of his frantic job search, he comes across an ad that sounds too good to be true: "Air courier desperately needed. No experience necessary, we will train you. Must be willing to relocate." The moment Justin applies, he is whisked away to the North Pole, where he's given a shiny new pair of antlers and is told that he's the latest addition to Santa's team of magic, shapeshifting reindeer! An ancient evil is plotting to shroud the world in darkness, and only Santa's gifts can keep the light of hope in children's hearts shining bright enough to push it back. Justin has less than a month to learn how to fly before Santa's yearly trip around the world. The fate of Christmas--and the entire world--depends on him. There's only one problem: he's afraid of heights.

Little Red ✔ by whoscountinganyway

THE DARK FAIRY TALE SERIES 1 This book is what happens when you merge dark humor, the greater good, sin and fairy tale characters into one hell of a story. *** Everything you know about fairytales is a lie. The stories aren't true. Little Red Riding-Hood didn't get devoured, the wolf didn't eat the old lady or trick them. They forgot to mention during bedtime tales that Little Red is a beast. That her cloak is a death omen or protection and you don't get to choose which one falls on you. Oh but the wolf? He would love to ravage her skin, his desire not suitable for your childhood fairytale. Little Red is about to go on a mission along with the big bad wolf and their elect team of killer magical dumbasses to kill the Wicked Queen. There's no silver lining in this fairy tale. Because things are about to get bloody. *** "Do they actually call you Little Red," Hand around her throat, the wolf sneers at her so close that she can feel warm breath on her neck. "Do they actually call you a Big Bad Wolf?" Came Little Red's reply. "Medium and Cocky Wolf is more realistic." A growl sounds out, "Watch your mouth." A twisted smile plays on her lips, "Whatever for Wolf?" "Well Red," Leaning down over her indeed little frame the wolf speaks against her skin. "If you keep antagonizing me I may have to take a bite."

Rankings: #1- Christmas #1- bernardtheelf #1- santaclaus #1- BernardtheelfxReader #1- xreader #1- bernardxreader #1- snowangel #1- elf . ❗️Disclaimer❗️ - As of the time when I planned out the plot of this story, The Santa Clauses series on Disney+ didn't air yet, so all of the lore behind the original trilogy hadn't been dropped yet. In this story, none of that happened because a lot of it contradicts to my story. So please don't expect this to be accurate to the lore that The Santa Clauses showed us! Thank you! - I do not claim ownership of the Santa Clause or any of its characters. They all belong to Disney. - The cover is by me :D

A Fair Account of the Traitors Snow White and Rose Red by GlassDryad

No one hates Snow White more than her younger half sister, Rosavere. Not since a star broke the world a thousand years ago and cursed humans with Grand Banes--powers never meant to be theirs--has there been a more traitorous tale. Snow murdered their father and was executed for her crime by Queen Estelle. But Rose's world is shattered when an ageless Snow reappears eleven years later and tries to assassinate the Queen. After a mysterious golden bear aids Snow's escape, Rose vows revenge on the ghost that still haunts her family. She hunts Snow across Albemar only to fall into the hands of a far more dangerous creature--Jack, a young man from a race of elves long thought extinct. Claiming the Queen enslaves elven children to create youth elixirs, Jack resolves to trade Rose's life to Snow to save the last of his kind. Both loyalty and vengeance waver when Rose discovers that a mirror forged from the Starfall may have warped Queen Estelle into a cunning monster. She must decide where her true allegiance lies . . . with the mother she's loved all her life, or the enigmatic half sister she barely knows. The closer Rose gets to the mirror, the more she realizes that generations of her family are tangled in its reflection--and the price to free them all will shatter far more than glass. *Available in ebook and in print.
