Smutty, delicious, all focused on our fabulous frisky foursome. How could it get any less than 5 stars!?

[Justina Staniforth · Rating 5 out of 5]

Hot, hot, HOT!!!
After Vengeful Gods quickly became one of my favourite reads, this novella showing more of Fox, Thorne, Ky and Ven’s lives together is like the icing on the cake :)
If you’re after super spicy short tales of what comes next - you will devour this like I did in a quick, spicy sitting.

A quick little bonus novella to follow Vengeful Gods, this one gives us some scenes into the happily ever after of Foxglove, Thorne, Kyron, and Ven. Low stakes, high heat.

4.3 ⭐️
Well.... I got the scene I was begging for from book 1 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨
Thorne and Ven... their duo scene was just everything and more! Ven allowing himself to be vulnerable (and a bottom 🌶️🌶️)

This was such a great steamy little novella to round up their story!

[Jourdyn · Rating 5 out of 5]

The one and only thing missing from Vengeful Gods was Thorne and Ven exploring their complicated relationship… This novella satisfies that and so much more! Literal perfection!

[Shannon · Rating 5 out of 5]

I am so glad I didn’t have to wait long after reading Vengeful Gods to get more of Fox and her men.

This was such a fun, quick read, and it was made all the more exciting knowing that it’s their HEA so you can just enjoy their sweet and steamy interactions with one another without worrying about sneaky Anguis shitbags lurking about ready to ruin a good time. It had me all kind of giddy being able to see them all building their connections with each other in different ways.

Ky and Thorne, squeeeee!

Thorne and Ven, oh my lordy lord!

The Woods!? THE FRICKING WOODS?!!
I am a puddle on the floor, what a dream!

[Teela (bookdragontee) · Rating 4 out of 5]

Who would have thought the most romantic thing to happen to me today would be getting stuffed into the trunk of the car belonging to my men.

And they say romance is dead 😉

This collection of HEA-themed vignettes was a perfect treat to tide me over between Vengeful Gods and Macabre Gods. I get more of my favorite trio of men and their Foxglove - just all of the fluff and feels... and yes, the spice too.

[Tamarra Lynch · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fox, Thorne, Ky, and Ven are deliciously sinful and oh so wicked, with each other. Their love for each other is strong and unparalleled. They are fiercely protective of their family and know how to take care of each other, fulfilling their needs, wants, and desires. This novella was a great companion to their story, and alas, whilst I will miss these characters, I can't wait to see wherelse they'll pop up! Highly recommend both the author and the book.

Foxglove, Thorne, Kyron, Raven: A Happily Ever After Novella dedicated to the characters of Vengeful Gods , giving readers a five part glimpse of life with our favourite four getting to live their best lives.

This was a fun quick read and kind of like a check in with Fox and her men.
If you enjoyed Vengeful Gods then you’ll love this quick, sweet and spicy novella

[River · Rating 3 out of 5]

I was so excited For this book. I’m not sure but for me it just fell pretty short. I’m learning I only like degradation in certain specific ways. Just straight up degradation I don’t think is my thing. Like the inclusion of My little *insert something here* I love but without I’m finding I don’t like it as much. Overall I just wanted more from it.

[Ashley Villa · Rating 5 out of 5]

I kicked my feet for this whole novella 🥰

Foxglove and her men are just perfection. Seeing all the different layers of their HEA gave me so much joy…

And there are A LOT of spicy moments mixed in with the sweet.

It’s the perfect addition after Vengeful Gods ♥️

[iam_cubanqueen · Rating 5 out of 5]

well well well

I loooove this but I'm super sad its finished. They all love each other that's all the spoilers I'm giving. Grab yours and run do not walk you'll thank me later.

Very well written as usual Darling Elliot eat and left no crumbs (Unlike Kay)
short and steamy devoured in few hours.

[Anna Stone · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved it

I love this group of characters. The banter, the spice, the connection they have is amazing. If you haven't read the Port Macabre series you definitely should

[megs · Rating 2 out of 5]

[Lauralee · Rating 5 out of 5]

Honestly, I think I would read like 19 more books of these four.

[Meghan Hemstedt · Rating 5 out of 5]

Hot, hot , hot , hot 🥵🤤

[Roksy · Rating 5 out of 5]

Deliciously smutty and fluffy, this ultra spicy novella takes a peek into the happily ever after being enjoyed by the four MCs from Vengeful Gods: FMC Foxglove and MMCs Throne, Kyron, and Raven. I loved how the story highlighted the individual growth of the characters and how their relationship has strengthened since the events of the main novel—seeing them settled and so in love was the sweetest treat.
