Yule Be Mine

by Jenika Snow

It was the annual Krampusnacht Festival in my little, snow-covered, European village. But this year, things were different. They took a dark turn, where I was the prey to a very dangerous predator.

And that villain is a towering figure clad in horns, fur, and chains. His crimson eyes gleamed from behind the Krampus mask.

He stalked me through the festival, his shadow merging with the eerie glow of lanterns. I feared him… but there was also something obscene that called out to my deepest desires.

When the masked demon finally had me alone, cornered me so I was away from anyone who could help, giving in seemed easier than fighting.

He whispered promises of monstrous pleasures, his voice laced with sin and vile obsession. Each stolen touch and growl from this predator pulled me deeper, twisting me tighter with a desire I didn't want to explore too deeply… because it felt so right.

But when I ripped away the allure of his beastly mask, one that promised pleasure became even more salacious when I stared back at a man I had no business being with.

A man twenty years older than me.

The one person who held a power dynamic over me that made a relationship with him forbidden.

When you’re in the holiday spirit but also want the holiday spirit in you. A quick and dirty read that has its share of surprising sweet moments, like an overly rum-spiked eggnog, mmmmm.

3 smut-scale stars!

On point for Jenika. Smutty, a little dark and a bit sweet. 98% smut, 2% plot.

I honestly shouldn’t get credit for this book on my book challenge but here we are.

DNF at 40%, I just couldn't get through the... vocabulary choices. Apart from other things, which I texted my bestie about: "ALSO it starts with the fmc going to a Christmas market on Krampusnacht with her coworkers, the usually broody boss didn't want to, she mentions how she's been thinking about him...SO YEAH I WONDER WHO IS THE KRAMPUS THAT'S FUCKING HER... I'm not that curious to confirm my suspicions and read it through 😂"

Yule be mine ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Rating on a novella scale. Welp this was hot haha. Yep I also want a krampus. Some of the lingo and dirty talk was bleh and I had some other minor issues like rushing the office scene but hey this was great for what it was and hot af

“You are everything I desire… and everything I want to ruin.”

Whew! Krampus role play anyone?! Holy hot horns baby. This was such a hot and spicy read. Plus it’s only around 50 pages. Get your HO HO HO on with this one.

I wanted to try a novella by Jenika Snow before committing to one of the books, but I read this entire thing with a frown. So nope.. no more.

And that christmas light scene? Overhyped.

🔥🔥🔥

It’s that magical time of year again—Kirampusnacht Festival! Sophia and her work buddies have snagged the best spots to soak in the night’s shenanigans. But wait, what’s this? The Krampus is creeping closer, and she can practically feel his eyes boring into her soul! No matter how she twists and turns, it’s always the same spooky fella from the parade, giving her the ol’ stare-down. But as she begins her trek home, the mood shifts faster than a reindeer on roller skates, and a chill runs down her spine—someone's definitely tailing her! This novella is a zesty cocktail of eerie vibes and spice!

Krampus role-play? Yes please!

Shy Sophia.. with a hidden desire.. for monsters. It’s Kirampusnacht! Sophia and her friends are at the festival having a good time.. but Sophia can’t stop thinking about her boss, Lucien. It’s when she’s at the festival that she feels someone watching her.. and it’s none other than.. Krampus. But .. this Krampus??? Might just be someone she least expected.

Oh boy!!! Jenika Snow never fails to deliver with unfiltered SMUT!! This novella is packed full of heat. About 5% plot and 95% filthy spice and I loved every page! If you’ve got a mask kink.. and I know you do.. give this a read.

[Dawn Thrasher · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was very hot! 🥵

Granted, this was a super short read and you think going in that it’ll be an instalove/instalust type of thing. In reality, we come in after they’ve been together for a year. If you need to have a full backstory and character development, this isn’t for you. You don’t get to see them fall in love. But you get to see how they keep their relationship going strong and get stronger by the end.

I really liked it myself. I like to think of it as a little sweet and a whole lotta hot!!!

Spicy Daddy Krampus

This super quick spicy novella is perfect if you’re looking for a LOT of heat packed in a little book.

It was better than I expected and the spice was glorious! Sophia might not be too sure about the Krampus in the beginning, however it doesn’t take long for her to claim him as hers.

I’m super happy there was more than one spicy scene cause in short books like this normally that’s all you get.

Running to go read more of this authors work!

[dais · Rating 5 out of 5]

43 pages of filthy Krampus smut.
Jenika never fails to deliver when it comes to these smutty short stories. For me, they’re all 10/10.
Ladies, the mask kink was in full force… if ya’ll don’t have a krampus mask in your collection, you’ll want one now.
Lucian/Krampus had me blushing like a slut.
The dirty talk, the kinky fuckery, the stalking, the possessiveness, the dominance and the overwhelming love and adoration he had for Sophia…
CHEF’S FCKING KISS.

[Jan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Krumpus is put looking for a naughty little girl, Sophia. When he grabs her, he plans to never let her go. This was hot. It also had that touch on romance. Lucian certainly was the right man to tempt her. MERRY CHRISTMAS YOY NAUGHTIES!

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

[lex · Rating 2 out of 5]

a fun little krampus role-play novella; perfect for the holiday season!
•
i personally wasn’t a huge fan of this one. i think maybe it was the writing? i also thought the spicy scenes were a bit lackluster..i just wanted more!
•
nonetheless, if you’re looking for an entertaining, mindless read with a holiday twist, this may be just the right novella for you! 🎁

[Tara Nelson · Rating 3 out of 5]

A quick dirty little Xmas treat

You gotta love how Jenika Snow can create a dirty spin on a Xmas folklore. This one was a spicy hot fast read about two people liking the same kink. Definitely recommend if you love Jenika Snow or if she's new to you then check her books out. You won't be disappointed.

[Donna · Rating 5 out of 5]

Jenika Snow has done it again!

I mean WOW! This was…whew!…a great read. Talk about role play, I wasn’t expecting this. Mostly spice 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🥵 but it doesn’t take away from it. Jenika knows how to write spice and I’m here for it!! Makes you want to attend a Krampusnacht Festival and be hunted by your own Krampus. This was 5⭐️ for me. I definitely recommend!

[Megan · Rating 4 out of 5]

A fun and hot primal, role-play, Krampus holiday novella. "Daddy Krampus" and Sophia. You'll never look at Christmas lights the same way again. ;o)

Daddy Krampus is played by Lucian, Sophia's 20-year-older boss. All he wants is to make Sophia is. He enjoys pushing Sophia's boundaries, and loves that she loves all of his... unique ideas.

[Belinda · Rating 3 out of 5]

An acceptable holiday short story. The mild pursuit and stalking was fun and so was the hot sex. While I have read Jenika's other short stories (Run Rabbit, I think it's called), this one fizzled into a more conventional short story which left me disappointed. But oh, well. I liked The Hunter for being less conventional so I'm willing to keep looking at her books.

[Holly · Rating 4 out of 5]

Depraved for Christmas

This one dirty and depraved.tale that will keep those of us who.love our kinky read riveted. Sophia get s stalked and taken by Krampus at the holiday festival but it is all part of the games she plays with Lucian for the last year.

[Day · Rating 4 out of 5]

Julian and Sophia

Krampus smut with very little plot 👀🫣🖤
I had fun reading this smutty filled novella. Julian is obsessed and possessive over Sophia. It was so good to read how these two came together with their kinky selves. I liked it.

[Misty Schott · Rating 5 out of 5]

Awesome holiday role play read!!

Sophia has fantasies just like everyone else, so its nice that Krampus is able to accommodate his and her fantasy to make everyone's Christmas wonderful!!

[Eva · Rating 5 out of 5]

Miss Jenika, imma need the novella of WHEN they meet and how the started getting together cause I’m obsessed!
I loved this little filthy role play and need more of these two being together. Lucian is now on top of my Xmas book boyfriends…

[Letitia Bennion · Rating 4 out of 5]

Wow

A dark and twisted Krampus story that is hot. I really liked the concept of the story. A little fantasy mixed in with an actual tradition. The passion was hot and a little dark but that made it exciting
