Merissa (14202 KP) rated Christmas Mafia Prince (The Naughty List) in Books
Nov 21, 2025
This is a dark/cute Christmas romance, and yes, the whole book is as paradoxical as that sounds! Killian bumps into Damen when he is trying to give his ex the slip. Damen is looking for a fake husband so he can join in his family's Christmas 'Hunt'. A match made in heaven?
Honestly? This book is bonkers! You have Damen the Assassin, who is completely gone for his boy. Killian the Innocent (sort of!), who really doesn't know what he's agreed to, plus a whole host of crazy (and slightly psychotic) characters who help move this story along. It's Christmassy, it's cosy, it's hot as hell, oh, and just a tad murderous!
I can't wait for more in the series, as there are definitely characters I want to see more of - Corvus being one of them! The epilogue for Damen and Killian was absolutely perfect as they are still smitten with each other. I really hope they show up in future books.
Absolutely brilliant and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by me.

Mar 19, 2025
Lex has refused to summon her incubus because she doesn't feel as though it's right. Lochran has waited for his summons but is close to giving up. So when Lex's magical house accidentally summons him, fun times are had.
There were so many parts of this that I enjoyed. Firstly, the not-so-nice part was handled well and in a manner fitting for the book. I can't say I was disappointed with how it ended either! Having Grandma as the head of the coven was a stroke of genius and I loved how she flipped between the two roles.
I hope that we see more of Billy and Jake too, but I'm guessing I will have to wait for that being as she is part of a pack. Maybe, maybe not?!
A great read with a multitude of brilliant characters, first and foremost being the House! I really wish I had one! Definitely recommended by me.

Miss Frost Save the Sandman ( Jayne Frost book 3)
By Kristen Painter
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Jayne Frost is a lot of things. Winter elf, Jack Frost's daughter, Santa Claus's niece, heir to the Winter Throne and now...private investigator. Sort of.
When the Sandman comes to Santa’s Workshop, the shop Jayne manages, to do his first ever book signing, it’s a major event. He’s kind of a supernatural celebrity and she needs to keep him happy.
All is well until trouble shows up at the party thrown in his honor. Trouble in the form of Luna Nyx, the Mistress of Nightmares and his creepy counterpart. The Sandman’s assistant says Luna is dangerous, and Jayne believes it when her dreams turn dark.
Can Jayne keep the Sandman safe from this gothic goddess? Or will Luna’s threats put them both to sleep for good?
What’s not to love about this series? It’s so quirky I love it! They are just about the right length to fit the whole story plus relationships without being overbearing or boring. I love Jayne she is so likeable actually I can’t think of any character I don’t like. This series is just so much fun. This book introduces us to the Sandman and his ex wife death. Brilliant if you’re looking for something fun and quirky.
