Three Kisses for Christmas: An Enemies-to-Lovers Reverse Harem Romance

by Molly Eden

I came to the mountains for peace, not a reunion with my worst high school memories.
But when I unlock the door to my best friend’s vacation house, I find them.

Camden is arrogant, untouchable, and his very presence commands attention he doesn't deserve. He was the ringleader of my torment back then, and his green eyes still drag up feelings I refuse to admit.

Sutton is the charming golden boy whose smirk always reminded me I’d never belong. Somehow, that smile is even more intoxicating now.

And then there’s Rowan. He’s brooding, brutally honest, and never plays by the rules. He could unravel me with a single look ten years ago, and nothing’s changed.

I should leave, but I have nowhere else to go. And when we get snowed in, survival means sharing warmth, space... and secrets I never thought I’d hear from their lips.

The boys who once made me feel small are men now—wealthy, powerful, devastatingly attractive—and they don’t play fair. Every look sparks old grudges and forbidden heat. Every touch blurs the line between hate and something I shouldn’t want.

But every argument and every moment of forced proximity only prove what I already know.

The only thing more dangerous than hating them… is wanting them all.

I enjoyed this story and would recommend it to those who enjoy this type of book. Camden Harrington, Sutton Michaels and Rowan Carigan had made Eva Winters time at high school living hell, even though she was attracted to them then, they knew she didn’t come from money and made sure she knew that she was beneath them. Now ten years later, when Eva comes to stay at her friend Elyssa’s vacation home, Elyssa's cousin Camden and his two friends from high school, are there when she arrives at the cabin. Eva has nowhere else to go, so she makes do with what she has available.

This story evolved into a feel good romance, where four people with their differences come together and work things out and build a life together despite what outside influences can bring to change their lives. I enjoyed how Eva stood up to her three high school bullies who had a secret crush on her and fell in love with her. This was a very quick story and a whole lot of things had to be pushed into a small amount of pages. There is a happy ending and character building in the end.

Eva's friend Elyssa's brother, Camden, and his two friends, Rowan and Sutton, made Eva's life a living hell while at college. Eva didn't come from money like them; her mother had to work hard to help her through it, and they made sure she knew that she was beneath them. Jump ahead a few years, Eva has come to stay at Elyssa's home due to personal issues, not knowing that her brother and his friends have also turned up to stay. Will they make her life hell, like they used to?

Camden, Sutton, and Rowan knew that Eva was good-looking in college, but now she is beautiful. They shouldn't be having these feelings for Elyssa's friend. They know what they did back then wasn't right, and they try to make up for their awful behaviour, but is this another one of their ruses? Eva knows she should stay away from them, but the men circle her, drawing her in. But will she ever be accepted in their social circle, or will others tear the relationship apart, reminding Eva that she doesn't belong?.

THREE KISSES FOR CHRISTMAS is a steamy, OTT, forced-proximity, enemies-to-lovers, reverse-harem, girl gets her 3 hunks romance. Eva is supposed to be vacationing at her bestie's cabin in the mountains. However, when she gets there, her friend's older brother, Camden, is there along with his two friends Sutton and Rowan. They tormented her all through highschool as they came from money and she didn't. Now, she has to decide if she will stay or go, until a storm forces her to stay. This one was just OK for me. The chemistry was decent but moved fast at times. We do end on a happy note after the drama and angst.

Okay this was a short and sweet Christmas why choose novella. Did I enjoy certain aspects of this book? Yes I did. But unfortunately with a novella because it is already short and you are cramming a lot of info into a short amount of pages it just became too rushed. I would have liked more of the enemies to lovers but all of the men were instantly obsessed with her once they saw her again for the first time after ten years. The spice was really good.

So Eva quit her job, left her apartment to do stay at her BFF's house in Colorado. This was a time to regroup, regenerate and look for a new job. What Eva was not expecting was the 3 guys from high school who made her feel small and unwanted. That she did not fit into thier group because she was not one of them. How was she going to get anything done? Did she need to leave? This is a great love story with a lot of spicy steam.

[Berta Greenleaf Richardson · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a good RH book filled to the brim with steam. At the beginning there is a lot of angst, painful memories and anger. Once our FMC gets through her memories and feelings of years past and gets to know the men as they are now, she falls for them. Seems they fall for her also. There is a ton of steam and s3x scenes but not much true romance, emotions, or passion. It all seemed kind of lackluster. Although it is a good book all together.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I liked how Eva, Camden, Sutton and Rowan reunite years after high school. The air is cleared between them and Eva forgive them for how they treated her in high school. I liked how the relationship developed between all of them and how the guys defend her. I'm glad her ex boss finally pays for his actions. I liked how successful they all are and how much in love they are.

Three Kisses for Christmas

I’m not usually a fan of the enemies to lovers trope, but I love forced proximity stories. This one delivered. Not a whole lot of angst and where it popped up it was garnered. I loved all three men, but I would have liked to see bit more groveling after the hell they put our main character through in high school. The epilogue was sticky sweet and I’ll be adding this one to my holiday reread list

Ella se queda con los tres chicos y un Mercedes-Benz como regalo, esa debe ser la mejor Navidad del mundo!

Muy poco odio para mi gusto, los chicos eran su bulín en la escuela y Eva aun tiene su coraje y dolor atorado en el pecho durante tantos años, como para que ahora me salgan con que son muy amables y atentos con ella. Ya sé que es Navidad y que todo tiene que ser lindo, pero eso arruina todo lo de enemies to lovers.

A Fun Christmas Romance

It’s always fun when it’s been a long time since you saw people from highschool and they were bullied to you and you are stuck in a cabin with them for the holidays. What a fantastic story and so well written. These three men show the epitome of love with Eva. I can’t wait to read more by this author.

I finished it, wished I hadn't wasted my time. It started out good, middle was fine, spice was spicen, then came the 3rd act breakup, so freaking stupid. For me that coupled with everything else that came after the 3rd act breakup ruined the book.

Fun read

Yes, yes - your classic “they were rich assholes in high school and now they’re still rich but they are less asshole-y and more in tune with their feelings and the feelings of others”. Lol. This was a fun, quick read. A good one when you need that HEA feeling.

This standalone is an enemies-to-lovers reverse harem romance. It was a fast story set around Christmas and had some HEAT.

Cute short read

[Stacie · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a forced proximity, RH about a woman and her three high school bullies who have grown up! There was some sizzle and lots of tension. Eva gets her HEA and they eventually show her how men should actually treat a woman.
