V Card
The stakes were high. His body count was higher.
The ladies loved me. Both the ones I shoved out my hotel room door every morning and the ones I was currently flicking between my thumbs. A pair of queens. My ideal threesome.
But these gals were fickle, whereas Lady Luck was the type to never leave my side. It was the same reason the girl sitting across from me never stood a chance.
Couldn’t blame her. Not really. Pretty little thing didn’t know she was treading in shark-infested waters. Or that the only card she had left at her disposal… just so happened to be my favorite one to take. Taking wasn’t the only thing I did though. I was a giver too. Demands, degradation, dic—
Well, I think you catch my drift. Point was, the moment she decided to go all-in was the exact moment she agreed to let me do the same.
Game on, baby girl.

This book gave me the ick. I don’t even know how this is classified as a dark romance. To me it’s just a nasty man who only likes to have sex with virgins which is just super creepy. It only got an extra star because the last page made me laugh. 👏

COMING FROM AN ARC READER: Absolutely 100/10. I’ve always loved Sybil, her books have a special place in my heart. I personally usually gravitate towards pitch black books, but the suspenseful plot twist at the end had me SCREAMING🤪 if you’re looking for a quick read with plot to get you out of a reading slump, this will be perfect for you!
The way that Sybil personifies the MMC and FMC is ironic and iconic because it reflects modern dating and the egos that come with some of these men😂

gambling addiction & they’re in my city!!
what happens in vega$, stays in vega$
🥂💵♠️ “the stakes were high. his body count was higher.”
on the casino floors, playing at a poker table, placing a bet to seductively dominate & win a woman who’s sitting pretty across the table offering up her v card.
this man has a wild virgin fetish obsessing to find out how much her v card is worth. $$
he only cares about getting the job done. soon later they’re exchanging bodily fluids, no aftercare
i savored this. more for me when sybil???
this pulls you straight into the highest stakes of gambling you merely cannot walk away from.
let me just say that the player got played in his venetian suite ha!
we love a boss fmc over the boss himself
🥂💵♠️ “every pussy was unique, like a snowflake or flower petal or brush stroke. and i indulged in all kinds.”

57 pages of nothingness. The writing is poor. The dialogue is thrown in here and there randomly. He fucks her but that's literally it. It's not dark.
He only fucks virgins and on page 39 he's like "you ever done anal?" (not word for word) LIKE what do you think?!
"I dove in face-first until I was up in her juices while mine leaked through the sheets and onto the mattress." 🤮

The entire plot twist is that she's not actually a virgin and she comes back to him? 🙄
Not sure why everyone is so over dramatic about it.

If you are a smut girlie, this is the perfect novella for you to grab on Valentine's Day! This is a spicy, fun, fast read!
I won't give any spoilers, but I love the plot twist at the end that I did not see coming!

This book was downright AWESOME and I need more of this right NOW!
This was a 5 star read and everything a novella should be. Short, sweet, spicy, and straight to the point!
The inner monologue keeps you entertained and really in the mind of the main character.
The kicker ... The kicker ... The main event! Now that was the ending of this book. I know this was a novella but I feel like I am dangling by a thread because whatever happened at the end I need more of the story. I just need more.
Anything Sybil writes is sooo good!

V-Card is sharp, fast-paced, and deliciously wicked. Sybil Knight delivers a perfectly sized novella with tight pacing, dark energy, and a twist that packs a punch. A quick read that lingers longer than expected. The ending really was unexpected and made the whole experience.

It was my first Sybil Knight book, and it did not disappoint.
A quick and easy spicy read. This book is 95% smut 5% plot/story.
Would definitely recommend 👌 great for a palate cleanser.

How to keep a poker face ♠️ 🫦
Rosalind, is giving up her V card to a master of the cards and the cl!t! Losing at her game, he takes her to his suite hoping to break her by taking her complete v!rg!n!ty. Taking his time, to ensure both of them are satisfied with the outcome (pun intended 🤣) Of course, he’s the type of guy who once finished, doesn’t deal with the aftercare, no he deals in getting the job done…but will he let her go?

It was such a fast spicy read, with a little plot twist you didn’t expect but totally ensured you enjoyed the read 🥵 May the cards fall where they may!

Vcard 🤎
This one had been in my wishlist for so long so I was super grateful that it was picked on a win your wishlist post! The authors note had me giggling & thinking F Yes, ima love it 😌
He has a taste for a certain type of woman, a woman that’s untouched, untainted, a woman that he can break the seal & then discard.
She bets her virginity, confident that she’ll win, she always wins..
Until tonight & he now has one night to do whatever he pleases with her & take that VCard…or so he thinks 👀🤭
This was such a quick read, I loved it!! The MMC was so sure of himself, his narrative gave me the ick but the FMC was a clever little beauty, I loved her 😌🤎
I’ve enjoyed all of Sybil’s books so far! Each one I’ve read has been different from the last but they always have amazing female characters & I love that! (Eat your heart out is still my fav)
This is the perfect little naughty addition to add to the TBR 😌🤎

This steamy little novella completely blew me away. When an author can write so well with so little words you know it’s going to be a great read.
The plot was fantastic and clever which is so hard to pull off with novellas but Sybil manages it perfectly. And the spice?? Oh my Mr Bettencourt 🥵 cocky? Yes. Hot AF? Double yes.
The twist at the end had me gigglingi and rooting for Rosalind though! If you need a steaming pallet cleanser? This is the one!

Chef’s 💋
vCard was an absolute hit.
Quick read so you will be able to SMASH it in no time.
This wasn’t at all what I thought it would be and was so incredibly better than I expected.
The plot twist I did not see coming and was above all my favorite thing about this book.
I suggest you pull up a seat at the table

Would have been better if you removed all the misogyny from it aka the MMC
I liked how the FMC played him though, he deserved it lol

Sybil you've done it again!
V Card by Sybil Knight
Tropes~
one-night stand
virgin
billionaire
age-gap
dark romance (more light gray than pitch black)
Triggers~
overall sexually explicit content
age-gap (both adults)
virgin trope
CNC/Dubcon
imbalance of power
gambling addiction
tobacco use
coercion
🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This was such a fun, short read from the authors note to the last sentence. Plenty of smut and a good plot. Wasn't expecting the ending and I kinda fell in love with Rosalind. Left me wanting MORE! Highly recommended if you're looking for something fast paced, packed with smut that has an actual plot (I know.. That's rare). Loved it!

This short read definitely kept my interest and I loved the twist at the end. I also loved the FMC especially, who seemed so docile until we got her POV. Amazing writing!!!

What a fun short story!

⭐️⭐️⭐️.5
🌶🌶🌶🌶
The writing was incredible; I really ended up hating and liking Malcolm, even though he was an egotistical, pompous jerk. His inner dialog was getting on my nerves, but it worked with how I perceived his character. It seemed very clinical how he was "working" with and how he collected V cards. Rose had me going, that's all I'll say about that. This book is not a romance, in my opinion, just a short story about taking and collecting V cards with a twist. I would recommend it as a quick pallet cleanser. Truly, the writing is great, and I can't wait to check out more of Sybil Knights's books.

“Everyone was gifted with certain abilities, indulged in certain vices. Pussy and poker were mine.”
This was exactly the kind of novella I needed after reading some pitch black. It was spicy and the placement of certain twists was unexpected. I kept thinking I knew something would happen or change. Either way that gave me a little mystery in the background of the filth 🥵🥵
Either way this was short and to the point but I loved it!

If you’re after a novella which is fast paced and spicy, this is it!
The dedication had me from the beginning;
“To anyone and everyone who’s ever wanted a do over, this one’s for you”!
A super short but extra spicy book with an ending where you say “get it girl”.

I really liked it, it was nice and short. More spice than plot but at the same time there was plot to the spice.
I really liked the little twist at the end. I thought it was going one way and it went in the totally opposite direction.

I absolutely loved this book. The twist on this was so good, I literally said oh hell yeah she did that. A quick read 90% smut which I'm all for 100%. I would definitely go for a second read. Oh and I wouldn't mind a spin off, just saying..
February 21, 2025
I give this book 4.5 ⭐️s. So I just rounded up to 5 ⭐️s. I love spicy novellas. So if you’re looking for a short and spicy read to get you out the slumps then this book is for you. I plan on reading more from this author.

Yorumları okuyunca iyi bi novella sanmıştım. Çok gereksiz çıktı. Yani sonundaki twisti sevdim. Açıkçası bu konuyu çok güzel yazabilirmiş ama neyse kısa bi kitaptı hemen bitti neyseki. Yine de zaman kaybıydı.

That plot twist was everything 🤣
The way the book is designed is absolutely beautiful, this is why I love poker.
The mmc? Does he know how much I hate him? Still, he's a very well written misogynist. It's almost a case study.
This is a great novella if you want to hate men.
