Christmas is my favorite time of year. The snow, the lights, the cookies. The warm nights curled up with a book by the fire. I love it all. But most of all, I love picking out the perfect presents for the people I care about.

So I’ve prepared an amazing Christmas Eve surprise for my bestie.

But the night takes a wild turn when I spot Santa on the roof. I didn’t realize Santa was so hot. And I’ll do whatever it takes to catch him. I don’t care if I end up on the naughty list - I’m not letting him get away without me sitting on his lap first.

Single Girl Rules #HoHoHo is the world’s spiciest Christmas story. You’ve been warned.

WOW!! Ummm I’ve been on the edge of my seat this entire time waiting to find out who took Ash’s virginity and holy crap did not see that coming LOL. Literally best book of the series by far!!! Also the fact that we also got an appearance by a true evil b!tch who I shall call pudding or maybe whizzy?! Lmao if you don’t know who I am talking about then you are seriously missing out on some of the best series ever. This Christmas story was the best one so far because I mean what they get up to on Christmas Eve? Let’s just say it puts a whole new spin on reindeer games 😂 I cannot wait until the next book in the series that comes out because I need to know what Ash has been hiding this whole time.

Christmas and spice:
Oooh boy, another wild ride with these bff’s. It’s definitely not your typical Hallmark Christmas story, it’s raunchy, wild and hilarious with one smoking hot Santa. Ash’s wild side came out to play and Charity went toe to toe with Isabella and showed her who’s boss! Yes! That Isabella! The she devil appeared! It was thoroughly entertaining with lots of Christmas spirit and Christmas spice 🔥 😉

This is by far one of Ivy’s steamiest and naughtiest books. We left off with Chastity and Slavanka saving Ash. Now it’s Christmas time and all the families are set to gather. Rumors are crazy Isabel (yes, from the Hunted and Empire High Series) is back and ready for a massacre. Will Chastity and the gang be able to stop her?

Sit back and get ready for a crazy adventure filled with Santa, elves, presents, special hot chocolate, sleigh rides, skiing in bikinis, Christmas cookies, and lots of milk.
The real question is will Ash finally lose it and who is the lucky guy?
Magic is in the air and everyone’s about to get their wish!

One of the best Christmas books I've ever read! Wild, hilarious, and like every other Smoak book unputdownable!
I hope this series never ends!

🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ What did I just read?! This was not at all what I was expecting. This was actually kind of painful to read. I hate to be a bitch about this and I always do not like giving bad reviews because I know how hard Ivy and the authors work on their stories. She put a lot of thought and heart into it but it just wasn’t for me. There was too much going on and it felt cheesy and overly silly to me. I didn’t want to read a porn, I wanted to read an emotional, touching, Christmas themed book. This was too over the top and not my style, or taste. It had its moments but I really struggled to read this. I couldn’t get into it. I felt like I was reading a young adult story with the way Chasity, Ash and Slavanka’s personalities were. I kept going though, because I’m not a quitter and a part of me wanted to see what would happen. While their attitude gave me teeny bopper vibes, they were doing a lot of adult things and engaging in certain activities that you would definitely not find in a young adult story. I kept hoping this would get better, and it did, momentarily but didn’t stay in that vibe. There was so many ways the book could go, storylines to focus on, but it was all over the place, almost like Ivy wanted to include too many things in a short story. I barely was able to finish it and now I have a taste of what Ivy’s “Single Girl Rules” series will entail and the way they will be written. I’m sorry to say, but I will not be checking out this series. Maybe there will be another book down the line that I’ll check out, but in the meantime, I’ll be sticking to my usual themed books and take a break from Ivy for a while. I’m sorry

SGR 6 definitely brought the holiday spirit!! Y’all this is not for those wanting a cute hallmark book because Ivy brought the super naughty out this time around! How about some magic, some large packages 😏, some festive orgies, and bikini skiing, plus mafia shenanigans?? This book is for you if you said “well, ok” to any of those lol.

Chasity’s adventures are always a wild ride and this was no exception. I have laughed so hard, like out loud, tears down my face and all! These group of friends are ride or d!e and I love it! And when Ash gets ahold of banana juice, it’s on like Donkey Kong (especially when the Banana King is involved). And oh Santa….Ash really needs to not take all the milk.

Isabella, ugh! Though I enjoyed the mafia meet ups and I need to see Chastity taking charge one day lol.

I liked the introduction of SBR and the question remains, will Chastity ever make it to her wedding??

#HoHoHo can be read alone but it’s definitely more fun if you’ve read to this point! Thanks Ivy for having me on your team for yet another fun read!!

Book 6 of the Single Girl Rules does not disappoint. Most of my favorite things when I think about Christmas are in this book, just with a Chastity twist. Ash’s loves Christmas and when her plans fall through with her parents, Chastity is there for her BFF and is determined to give Ash a great Christmas. It starts out normal enough for Ash and Chastity with a visit from Ash’s siblings but soon takes an odd turn that’s starts with Hot Chocolate that has some Banana juice added. Things just get crazier from there. There’s a Mafia family Christmas gathering that Santa and even some of our Gryphon bros show up. Of course the Banana King is there too. Despite all the craziness that transpired, it turns out to be quite the Christmas for Ash. If only she could remember her naughty night with the sexy Santa.

The girls have a wild time in Santa’s workshop

I think Ash is wilder than Chastity especially in this book. I still think Slavanka is my favorite and I can’t wait to the man strong and brave enough to marry her. I’m getting the vibes that Ghostie might be who Chastity is marrying because I kinda want them to be end game or the Banana King. Ash, Chastity, Slavanka really are Ho Ho Hos lol. I’m proud and happy for Ash that her dreams came true with Santa. I laughed at Slavanka’s gift from Santa. I loved that Ash kept calling Chastity’s dad, Daddy. Isabella was really trying to ruin Christmas, I hate her. I need more on the Banana King and the Single Guy Rules. I can’t wait for Slavanka’s wedding in the next book.

If you’re looking for a comfy, cozy holiday read, well this ain’t it my friends! This is a riot of a good time filled with laughter, a total lack of morals, a naughty Santa, and you will never look at Santa’s elves the same way ever again #shortkings. Chastity shows she’s got the business smarts to run the mob side of the family if she ever wanted, as witnessed by her crazy counter-plotting, alliance forging, and the handling of Crazy Isabella - yes folks, THAT Isabella! More drippings of information of how we got to where we are today are sprinkled throughout, making the puzzle come together and it’s getting so close the final picture!

SGR #hohoho is the 6th book in the SGR series.

I’ve been throughly looking forward to this story since Ivy Smoak announced it was coming. What better way to start the festive season than to have another fun filled spicy hilarious adventure with Chasity and Ash.

I will never grow tired of these two girls and their shenanigans. If you’re looking for a sweet hallmark Christmas story then this isn’t it. This is Ivy smoaks spiciest story yet and y’all need to read this crazy adventure I guarantee it will have you laughing until your sides hurt.

I can’t recommend it enough.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
FOUR STARS ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Goodbye Hallmark and Hello Sexy Santas ! We all love a good holiday read but we love it more when we can turn up the spice. Who needs hot cocoa when you have some well hung men to keep you all toasty. Get ready for holiday cheers and some crazy adventures with your two favorite ladies Chastity and Ash. Except! We have ourselves a little twist when we have Isabella make her big return. Will Isabella ruin the holidays or will these ladies make it out? I guess there’s only one way to find out. So what you waiting for? Go get yourself a copy of SGR Ho Ho Ho. A Christmas read you will want all for yourself.

This book will have you rolling! What a page turner. White it’s a Christmas story, it’s not just any Christmas story. Did Ash loose her virginity? If so, to whom? Chastity and her friends go on quite a Christmas adventure. You have Chad, Ghostie and Teddy Bear, Tommy, the banana king, banana bros, Santa Claus, interesting outfits the girls wear, ski slopes, Santa’s sleigh, measuring contests, “other” contests, Christmas presents, and so much more. I think that about sums the book up without giving much away. Enjoy!

First I want to says is only Chasity. I love how funny these books are every time I do not think Chasity and ash can top the last book they do. Ivys books are the best and I can’t wait to read more. I love getting to find out more about Chasity mob ties and Isabella is back. I normally do not like holiday reads but this one was a ton of fun. The characters always makes you feel invested in them. Like if they are sad then I am sad. Which just shows how great Ivy smoak is with writing her books. I can’t wait to see what is coming next.

I can honestly say I've never read a Christmas story like this before. I think this was my favorite depiction of Santa. I have never pictured a sexy Santa before, but I'm pretty sure nothing could top Ivys Santa. I think each SGR book has even more c***s than the previous book. And an added bonus to this book was Chastity showing Isabella who's (mob) boss. This book kept me guessing about who Chastitys future husband will be. And of course ended with a cliffhanger that teased what amazing Chastity style adventures will be in the next installment of the SGR series.

I think my favorite Ivy Smoak narrator is still Ash in The Society, but Chastity in SGR is a very close second. Just a totally different vibe :D lol
If you like your books so spicy your Kindle melts and you have to hide it from every family member that walks by, this is DEFINITELY not going to disappoint! Let's just say Ash's virginity isn't just lost but stomped 5,000 feet underground by her shenanigans on Christmas Eve LOL. You know what you signed up for! Can't wait to see how this series concludes - Single BOY Rules and MARRIED Girl Rules??!?!? Yes please.

🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ 5/5

Wow just wow. I absolutely loved this crazy ridiculous Christmas novella. Like the rest of the series, book 6 picked up where the last book left off. We get to learn about a Christmas vacation that is full of fun adventures and crazy activities.

Along with learning about the crazy vacation, we learn that apparently book 6 isn’t the final book to the series, and all this point, I’ve got no clue how many books are last. Regardless, I highly recommend this book, especially if you are looking for some Christmas fun, with a twist.

And we’re back on another crazy adventure with none other than Chastity, Ash, and Slavanka! Now let’s throw in Santa Clause, some naughty elves, bikini skiing, presents galore, cookies and milk, and a potential Christmas massacre. This was definitely Ivy’s spiciest book, and honestly, I don’t know how she keeps making each book spicier than the last, but I’m here for ALL of it! We thought Ash loved Christmas before. Well, this is one Christmas she’ll never forget, or will she without that banana juice? The situations these girls find themselves in will have you laughing, blushing, and ending up on Santa’s naughty list. Buckle up and enjoy the most wonderful time of the year!

Every single person who even touches this book will end up on the naughty list right alongside Ivy Smoak herself! lol The level of spice in this book is off the charts.
Ash LOVES Christmas and her BFF Chasity goes all out to make it special for her. There are so many shenanigans, as always, that will have you crying from laughing so hard.
This is THE best combination of Christmas and Spice you will ever read.

Thank you Ivy Smoak and Ryan Hauge for this ARC

Chastity is honestly something else. I absolutely love her and her fun craziness. This wasn't my favorite of the series, but I still enjoyed reading it. A definite Christmas read to add to your list for the year (granted make sure you read the others first to avoid all the spoilers).
Ash and Slavanka are completely opposites that make these stories work so well. I'm so ready for the next book and more shenanigans.

Chastity and Ash are back.
This was funny from page one. There was LOL moments on every page, with the spice level kicked up even more, as a gift for Christmas. Chastity is crazy driven and Ash ... well Ash is a lovable mess you can't help but adore.
I'd definitely suggest reading the other books because it makes so much sense having read them first.
This book really drives you to be excited for Christmas! :)

Haha! Amazingly funny and so darn Ho-Ho-HOT! Chastity is ready for another wild adventure and Ash as always is along for the ride. I laughed so hard at times, these two are just downright comical at times, I loved it. And man, when it gets hot, it gets absolutely spicy! Sugar and spice and everything that's naughty and nice, this was a great read and I absolutely recommend it for anyone looking to laugh til your sides hurt and enjoy a naughty Christmas tale.

What a (Christmas) fever dream… LOL.

Listen, there is nothing I love more than finding out what Chastity is up to now…

Ivy created the most out of pocket, ridiculous, wild ride of a Christmas book and I can guarantee you have not read any book like this before.

This one comes out December 7th so pick it up then to get a steamy holiday story that will make you audibly LOL

Ash and Chastity are at it again! This time they are on a mission to meet Santa Claus. This book has adventure and all the spice you would expect from a Single Girl Rules book. And the best part- will Ash finally lose her V card?! I highly recommend this book if you want lots of holiday spice and over the top entertainment!

Absolute hilarity! Ash in all of her awkwardness is at it again. Chasity is letting it all hang out in her fun "loving" way. And with Hot Santa stopping by to say hi? What could get you in the Christmas spirit faster? This book was hilarious and always so much fun! Ivy thanks for all of the amazing laughs!

Not as good as I'd hoped

I must admit I was pretty disappointed with this one. It seemed to jump right Into the graphic parts of the story and it seemed a little redundant. Also I found several spelling errors and incorrect word in places throughout the book. I was hoping to enjoy it more.
