Knot for Christmas

Rate this book
Grace doesn't hate Christmas.
She just... prefers to ignore it.

She learned a long time ago that it was easier that way. But when Lucas, Drew and Ben burst into her quiet life, full of teasing and fun and Christmas spirit, she realizes that maybe, just maybe... Christmas isn't so bad after all.

Especially when you have the right pack to spend it with.

🇺🇸This was amazing! I didn’t expect to fall in love with four characters in less than 150 pages but here I am lol. I really enjoyed their chemistry, the tenderness between them, the fact that they care deeply for each other. Also… hot smut alert.

🇫🇷C’était génial ! Je ne m’attendais pas à tomber sous le charme de quatre personnages en moins de 150 pages mais c’était bien écrit et adorable. J’ai adoré leur alchimie, la tendresse entre eux et l’amitié qui lie les trois alphas. Ils tiennent vraiment les uns aux autres… et bien sûr… quel spice !

“Mate. You taste like sin, Grace. Sin and gingerbread and fucking caramel.”

This was a perfectly sweet and quick holiday Omegaverse novella with all-in Alphas and an Omega in need of love.

The moments were so sweet that they brought me to tears at points. The Alphas lavished their Omega with love and affection. They had naughty and nice mouths - saying the sweetest things (theme here, just highlighting how sweet the story is) and then turned around with devilish tongues.

MFMM romance that concludes in a very hot and heavy HEA.

This is such an unproblematic, sweet and spicy Christmas novella!

I love everything about it.

Grace, our omega, is a bookstore owner who doesn't do Christmas. Our three alphas are sweet, caring patient, and complete each other very well.

I find Evelyn's writing captivating and I couldn't put the book down.

It really puts you in the Christmas spirit with pure fluff and kindness (and smut).

I've only read a couple of Omegaverse's, and this is adorable MFMM for a Christmas Novella.
Why have one when you can have three for Christmas!?

My only downside is the pacing is all over the place. The beginning was amazing! I loved the details, where we were going, but towards the middle, it started picking up, and it became hard to tell who was who out of the males. The ending felt a little rushed, almost giving a right, this is a novella, so I need to wrap it up vibe.

One last weird quirk that didn't sway a star rating, was the knotting in the mouth...yeah, that was new for me and seemed kinda weird. That was not my cup of tea. Lol


Story: ⭐⭐⭐ (3/5)

perfectly sweet

This was perfectly sweet with a dash of spice. I loved the relationship between the characters so much so that I would love a full length novel!

This was a fun sugary sweet Christmas omegaverse novella. The first half of this was great. Cute and sweet and I was pretty sucked up. I even cried a little bit. I thought the h was relatable and easy to read about, the author did a good job of endearing the reader to her right away which can be hard to do in a novella.

The second gets pretty gimmicky but that’s to be expected in holiday reads. I could have done without the knotting of the hs mouth during a BJ, that’s a new one for me and didn’t make for a sexy visual. The guys were all pretty one note and there wasn’t anything distinguishing them, aside from their jobs, from each other. I kept getting them confused. Personality wise on page they all read as the same person and that is not what I want in a RH.

I liked the little twist in the end. Totally made me cry and I wish we would have been able to sit in those emotions for a while but everything gets so rushed and wrapped up so quickly that I had major whiplash. All in all it was an enjoyable Christmas though.

When a book surprises you with a moment of joy, awe, and surprise - normally you can kind of see it coming.

This time. This one took me totally by surprise. Our shy and quiet omega, Grace, has spent years not quite hating - but certainly avoiding - Christmas.

She - for reasons that are delicately revealed - has deliberately chosen to ignore the festive cheer, and keep her head down in the celebratory and cheerful crowds, while hurrying between her haven of a bookstore and her quiet (perhaps, even, lonely?) apartment.

One of her customers appears to have a much closer eye on the reserved omega then she recognizes. And, it is shortly revealed that he’s not alone in his enchantment. Grace has admirers who make clear their fascination and desire to know her better, shortly after introducing themselves.

This is a quiet, comforting romance, where the emotions, love and lust both, of the main characters, swell gently over the course of the story. Each of the alphas - in his own way - takes such gentle care with her emotions and trust, that I found myself shedding some tears of happiness as I followed along.

This has immediately become a comfort read, one that, while set during the holiday season, will be something I anticipate reading again and again.

What a perfect Christmas novella 🎄🎄🎄

I really loved this story. Grace has always had a tough time around Christmas and tends to avoid it altogether. Along comes a beautiful alpha that unbeknownst to Grace has a little crush on her.

I love Grace, she is beautiful, caring and generous. It's really unfortunate that she had to suffer the way she did, but that didn't stop her from being an amazing person. I love that Lucas, Ben and Drew come into her life. She needs them just as much as they need her.

I love Lucas, Ben and Drew. They are some amazing alpha's. Yes this was a novella but Evelyn did an amazing job at showing their personalities. I think my favourite is Drew, he's just so sweet and has golden retriever vibes, don't get me wrong I love Lucas and Ben but Drew is so cute.

Cute, funny, and heartwarming! I loved how distinct each alpha’s personality is. Even though this is a short novella, each guy gets his time to shine and we get a good understanding of who they are. With these alphas you get a funny/goofy one, a charismatic one, and a quiet/observant one. And I love the fmc, grace, she was headstrong and endearing.

I also loved that we got to see their families! And my heart ached for grace and the type of childhood she had that led to her Christmas aversion but I was so happy for her wirh the love she found for Christmas and in romance with the pack.

And frank! I love an old grumpy side character and he was the sweetest friend/ protector to grace!

This novella is a jolt of holiday magic in an omegaverse romance. After learning of her tragic past, these alphas are out to show their omega just how lovely the holiday season can be. I loved how they courted and cared for her, without it being over the top. If you’re in the mood for a quick, holiday romance with a lonely omega and a pack that dotes on her, I think you would like this story.

This is such a perfect holiday novella. I ADORE the characters!The FMC is an independent, bookish business owner who does not have any Christmas Spirit - but she doesn’t lash out or try to keep others from enjoying the season. The MMC are all thoughtful, considerate gentleman in different ways, and are unique individuals (no copy+paste alphas here). The story itself is low-angst. There isn’t any real outside drama, it’s just the usual pitfalls of beginning a relationship with someone who has some trauma to heal from, and the MMC all help her do that. The plot-to-spice ratio is perfect. The story has plenty of sweetness and humor to balance out the small amount of angst and the spice.

DNF - 64%

I usually really like Evelyn Flood's books. I think I just gave her a five star review last month but this one was a miss for me personally.

I don't think it's the book itself, I should really stop giving novellas a try. When books are this short AND a reverse harem everything feels so rushed and forced. The relationships don't feel natural at all. It doesn't feel like there is any chemistry. Not only is it a short romance, but it is MULTIPLE romances since there are multiple people involved in the relationship.

That being said, if you are looking for a sweet omegaverse Christmas novella this is a good choice! If you don't mind the cheesiness and Hallmark like cringe.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tropes :

❄️ Omegaverse
❄️ Holiday romance
❄️ Reverse Harem

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I will say the only reason I picked up this novella is because I read Knot forever and saw the author wrote a novella and wanted to see if maybe it was a bit better that the book. And I do not regret it !

I definitely liked that novella a hell of a lot better than the full-length book. It was short and sweet with a bit of spice, just how we like it !

Lucas, Ben & Drew are just a bunch of sweethearts who are only there to make Grace feel like a queen (as she should). I just thought how they went about to try and seduce Grace was the sweetest. I think we learned a lot about them with how they show their love.

Contrary to Knot forever I would definitely recommend that book if you want something short and very sweet !

2.5 stars. It loses half a star for that thing with Frank in the end there. It was unnecessarily made unrealistic, especially cause his grumpy self was actually my favourite. I don't want to spoil it but you'll know when you read it.

Adorable and a little heartbreaking. It made me nostalgic for the Christmases we had before my parents got divorced and my stepdad came in and changed our traditions to suit himself and ruined the whole season for me.

(I never rate a novella more than 3 stars because reasons but if this was a full length book this would've been a solid 4.5 I think. It really is damn cute)

Heartfelt/Hot/ confusing

Grace is an omega who chooses to always ignore Christmas. She owns a bookstore and has caught a little bit of a fan in Lucas. He is an alpha who has been coming in to buy books just to talk to her. The rest of his blue collar pack are ready to meet the sweet and skittish omega that lLucas wants and soon find out they want her too.
Graces back story had me feeling feels that I was not expecting an omegaversa spicy novella. The guys are sweet and all in.
I will say the Frank things severally confused me even though they made me tear up, but I'm still very confused. But sweet story with some spicy scenes for sure.

This is a cute, zero angst, omegaverse Christmas-y story.

Grace isn't a fan of Christmas due to events in her childhood. She is set to spend her life alone running her bookstore. Then, she meets 3 alphas who change her mind about everything.

I thought this was a cute read. There really wasn't any drama or angst, no miscommunication or misunderstanding. There were some parts of Grace's past that I think could've been explained a little bit more. All of the feelings felt kind of surface level to me. I did like the little twist with Frank. It was so sweet!

A sweet story, but I dinged it one star because of the book's odd structure. The scene at the shelter, culminating in Frank's gift and note followed by the online revelation, was really the climax, and the book should have ended there. The obligatory heat orgy and bonding could easily have been moved before it, since the big reveal really didn't seem to make much of a change in her motivation or readiness to bond.

cute and short

Grace does not like Christmas. But then three alphas think she is for them and show her how wrong she is about Christmas and that she doesn’t need to be afraid of them.

This is short and sweet and to the point. I wish the “miracle” was fleshed out a little more so it didn’t feel like it came from left field. But if you are looking for a short pallet cleanser, this is it.

4☆

honestly i really enjoyed this but i thought the ending was kinda abrupt like i wish we got a cute epilogue. it was very cute tho and i loved the characters sm🥰


‘“No!” she yelps, hugging a small package to her chest. “This is… I love it.”
“You haven’t opened them yet,” I say softly, and her smile widens.
“You got them for me,” she says, just as quietly. “So I’ll love them. Whatever they are.”
Fuck. I think my heart just melted.’

This was a really good holiday Omegaverse short story. The story and the characters were well developed and the overall story was really engaging.

Grace was a sweet omega. She didn’t have the best life prior to meeting her alphas, and it was really heartwarming watching her experience the holidays with her alphas. I loved all three of her alphas, as each provided Grace with what she needed. Overall, I really enjoyed this story.

Sweet!

Cute omegaverse novella with a surprising sweet and unexpected twist at the end.
It was really good and I loved the characters. Low stakes and just a light read when you want something easy that you know you won’t have to stress about. I totally would recommend.

What else to expect from an omegaverse, holiday novella? It delivers on what you expect going into it. It's sickly sweet and quick to read.

Honestly my only real issue with this one is when one of the MMC's knots our FMC's mouth. For how short this is and how little spice we get, this is the last thing I wanted to focus on. lmao

So good

I was absolutely NOT prepared for that twist at the end! Ugh all the feels and emotions had me crying. That's how you know a book is good when you can absolutely feel all the emotions. Evelyn Flood never disappoints. I don't want to ruin the book, so just go in blind and read it

knot for Christmas

This had me laughing and it brought me to tears but NOT because of anything the Alphas did.

Grace has been without a family and never thought she would have a pack and Christmas was not something she took part in.

Three Alphas decide she’s theirs and the courting begins….

Sweet
Hot
Heartwarming

Loved this.
