Daddy's Naughty List

by Jenika Snow

My day couldn’t have gotten any worse.

First, my date abandoned me at the office holiday party. Then, while I stood outside, waiting for a ride, a passing car barreled through a massive pothole and drenched me in freezing, dirty water.

That should have been my sign to just go home. But I accepted an offer from St. Nick to buy me a drink.

Only… Santa Claus didn’t look like the stereotypical caricature. This version was big and muscular, rugged, and tattooed.

We ended up talking, drinking more, and connecting on a level that felt surprisingly intimate. Before I knew it, he offered me a ride in his beat-up truck.

I was smarter than this. But against my better judgment, my mind screamed, Hell yes!

Santa’s teasing confidence stirred something hot inside me, and I found myself irrevocably drawn to him.

Things were about to get hot and kinky, and by the end of it all, I was getting a big, fat gift. And my stocking stuffed.

quotes:
I’ve texted my friend all your details and am sharing my location. I also have a full bottle of pepper spray in my purse and a knife that, although small, is sharp enough to cut off your nuts.” I lifted an eyebrow, and I could see he was trying not to smirk. “So just keep that shit in mind.”

He nodded. “Duly noted.” We stared at each other for long seconds before he added, “Never thought I’d find it hot that a woman threatened to castrate me, but here we are.” He shut the door fully before I could respond.

hot n spicy

I have no idea why I am reading this in February but it was short and spicy and hit just right!

[Magda the Bookworm · Rating 4 out of 5]

4,5 ⭐

Even though I'm not so fond of short stories, I really liked this one!

It was cute, christmassy and hot!
The smutty parts were very good!
Totally recommend this for this time of the year!

Meh.

It did what it was designed to do, kept me entertained for about 30 mins. Its not a super spicy book but parts are on the comical side.

🛑 DNF chap 6
Stefan et Holly
Père Noel

Euhhh j'arrive pas à rentrer dedans.

📖
Ma journée n’aurait pas pu être pire.
D'abord, mon rencard m'a abandonnée à la fête de fin d'année du bureau. Puis, alors que j'attendais dehors, une voiture a foncé dans un énorme nid-de-poule et m'a trempée d'eau sale et glacée.
Ça aurait dû être mon signe de rentrer. Mais j'ai accepté l'offre du Père Noël de m'offrir un verre.
Sauf que… le Père Noël ne ressemblait pas à la caricature stéréotypée. Cette version était grande et musclée, robuste et tatouée.
On a fini par discuter, boire encore et créer une connexion étonnamment intime. Avant même de m'en rendre compte, il m'a proposé de faire un tour dans son vieux camion.
J'étais plus maligne que ça. Mais contre toute attente, mon esprit a hurlé : « Oh oui ! »
L'assurance taquine du Père Noël a éveillé quelque chose de brûlant en moi, et je me suis sentie irrémédiablement attirée par lui.
Les choses allaient devenir torrides et coquines, et à la fin, j'avais reçu un gros cadeau. Et ma chaussette était pleine à craquer.

Holly is having a bad night. Her date stood her up and now she is all wet, broken heel, and a sprained ankle. What next. Stefan Huntington has finished his Santa duty when he find a damsel in distress. There is something about this little fighter that he has to get to know. I love these short stories. It’s Christmas and Santa aka Stefan has found Holly in need of help and an ear. It is love at first sight. Such a sweet naughty holiday story.

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

All started with Santa

If you want a quick read instalove with a holiday twist and a HEA; this book is for you! It’s a cute story with a little bit of spice thrown in there. Mainly it just made for a great dose of holiday fun. When things are going down and then BAM hot Santa. Who doesn’t want to think when the holiday season is letting you down that a hot Santa won’t appear and save you?! This will be a fun one to read every holiday season.

Excellent story!

For being a short read, it really packs a punch! The chemistry between Holly and Stefan just drew you in. She was a little snarky to him and he matched it with humor. This was so well written, I just felt like their relationship could happen to anyone. I loved his dominant personality and it set her on fire. If you like women who don’t wilt when things don’t turn out, read this book!

Holly needs something good after the day she's had!!

Holly's day is just getting worse and worse by the minute. When she runs into Stefan and he offered to buy her a drink she jumps at the chance hoping this will turn her day around. Read thus excellent story to find out what happens!

A bad night turns into a good night when they meet

Her bad night changes when she meet Stefan and days later, she still can’t stop thinking about him.

This a super cute and super quick read. The tension between Holly and Stefan was smoking hot. This novella is spicy way and I loved it.

[Jedi · Rating 4 out of 5]

Okay

This was a short story, a couple steamy scenes I was expecting more, a little disappointed overall.

Never did find out what the MMC did for living which was weird, or maybe I missed it.

[LiLu · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fantastic ~

A short story that held so much heat a passion. The lust, want and need at first sight, sigh … just gives the dream of a possibility of an over the top, scorching high heat love affair for life. What a fantastic life that would be.

[BobbiJo · Rating 5 out of 5]

Super Cute

This is a great fast read that’s super cute for those who love cozy instalove read that has some hot spice! A great palate cleanser that can be read anytime of the year, even if it is a holiday romance.

I enjoyed Stefan and Holly's story.
Holly was having a horrible night until she met Stefan dressed as Santa.
Their chemistry was instantaneous.
And the sex was Hawt!

Stefan and Holly

This was more of a slow burn novella. It was good. I liked Stefan and Holly together. They had great chemistry together. Not my favorite by Jenika Snow but it was still good. Nice and smutty.

[booking _with_romancegirl · Rating 4 out of 5]

[Kathryn · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short, sweet pallet cleanser

Accidentally met cute, leads to instant love. Super short, quick read with spice and a very dominate mmc who is completely devoted to her. Great pallet cleanser.

[Sauieh Noushin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short and quick read. Not too much smut as is usually in a Jenika Snow book, even the shorter novellas. The one scene was pretty hot. This was definitely more plot. Stilla good quick holiday read.

Daddy's naughty list

Couldn't put it down loved the characters and the storyline so it's a well deserved five stars and I would recommend this book to everyone

[Carrie Baty · Rating 2 out of 5]

It’s not my type of book. I don’t think I really like the Daddy kink. Yes, it was a quick read. But I didn’t really care for it.
