Christmas Quadruplets: An Age Gap Mafia Romance
This Christmas, I’m on my professor’s naughty list… and he’s coming to collect.
All I wanted for Christmas was a 4.0 GPA.
Instead, I got the hottest mafia boss ever, posing as a professor at my university.
But Professor Makarov isn’t just my grumpy new business 101 lecturer.
He’s the most dangerous man in the city,
And after one very late night in his private office,
I’ve made the mistake of discovering it…
Suddenly, he’s buying me things to keep me quiet,
Making my every fantasy come true,
And fending off my toxic ex to “protect me”.
I guess jealousy has its advantages.
Makarov says I’ve landed myself on his naughty list.
But he doesn't know everything.
He doesn't know about the secret I carry.
The one that started with a single, reckless night in his office…
The one growing right under his watchful eyes.
His heir.
His legacy.
His undoing.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A steamy, emotional holiday romance that completely stole my heart.
Christmas Quadruplets: An Age Gap Mafia Romance by Bella King was one of those books I picked up expecting a fun, spicy holiday escape—and instead I ended up staying up half the night because I genuinely couldn’t put it down. This story is everything I love about mafia romance, wrapped up in the warmth and magic of Christmas, with an emotional twist that hit me so much harder than I expected.
The age-gap dynamic is written so well. It doesn’t feel forced or cliché—it feels natural, deep, and honestly kind of irresistible. The hero is intense in that classic mafia way, but Bella King gives him so much more than just power and danger. You really see his heart, the cracks in his armor, the quiet moments where his protective nature becomes something incredibly tender. And the heroine? I adored her. She has this perfect blend of innocence and strength, and watching her stand her ground in a world that could swallow her whole made me connect with her instantly. Their chemistry isn’t just physical—it’s emotional, magnetic, and beautifully built.
The mafia elements keep the story gripping. There’s real danger, real tension, and real consequences, which makes every soft moment between them feel even more precious. Bella King balances the darker parts with the holiday softness in a way that shouldn’t work—but somehow works perfectly. Christmas lights, snowy nights, and the constant edge of risk make the whole story feel alive.
And then…the quadruplets. I thought it would be a shocking twist played for drama, but it ended up being the part that touched me the most. Those scenes were so heartfelt and genuine that I found myself getting unexpectedly emotional. It added depth to their relationship, showed growth in both characters, and made the ending feel incredibly rewarding.
The spice is intense, purposeful, and full of emotion. Nothing is rushed. Nothing feels empty or thrown in. Every moment builds their connection and pushes their story forward.
What I loved most is how real it felt. Even with the mafia backdrop and the wild twists, the characters felt like actual people with fears, hopes, and flaws. By the time I finished, I wasn’t just entertained—I was invested, moved, and honestly a little sad to say goodbye to them.
If you want a Christmas romance that’s spicy, emotional, dangerous, and completely addictive, this book is a solid 5 stars. I’ll be thinking about this story every time I see Christmas lights this year.

I picked up Christmas Quadruplets as a light, easy read over the Christmas break, going in completely blind. I didn’t read reviews beforehand and chose it purely because it was a mafia romance with what I assumed would be a surprise pregnancy.
While the book delivered on being a quick and easy read, it fell short for me in terms of storyline and depth. The overall plot didn’t feel as though it was explored to its full potential, and although there were moments I enjoyed, the story ultimately felt a little flat.
One of the biggest missed opportunities was the premise itself. The idea that a Bratva boss would leave his entire world behind - selling everything and walking away from that life - is huge, but the emotional and practical impact of that decision wasn’t really explored. It also felt somewhat out of character for the MMC, making the shift feel abrupt rather than earned.
Similarly, the quadruplet pregnancy felt underdeveloped as a plot point. When the doctor reveals there are four babies, neither main character shows much reaction or surprise, which made what should have been a significant moment feel oddly understated.
Overall, Christmas Quadruplets is an easy, low-effort read, but not one that particularly stood out to me. Enjoyable enough for what it is, just not especially memorable. A solid 3 stars.

This is a cute little story about a young girl Galina trying to get through college. She is on a scholarship program and must maintain her grades. She has worked her butt off and doesn't have time for distractions. Here comes Adrik her new visiting professor who has a different style of teaching and opinions on business. She doesn't agree with his opinions and expresses it. (meet cute moment) I really enjoyed this story. I liked the chemistry between the Galina and Adrik. The plot was good and so was the spice. This book has everything Christmas, Bratva, crazy stalkers (good and bad), crazy ex, good best friend, good spice, and a happily ever after.

They meet in a college lecture hall, and nothing will be the same for them. Galina is determined to get her mind on her studies and make the grades to keep her scholar ship but when she encounters Adrik in class something shifts and leads to clandestine meetings and danger that she finds herself in the middle of. It is filled with dangerous twists and turns along with scorching romance that had me cheering this couple on to getting their chance for happiness.

Mafia romance
She's a student, he's a mafia boss undercover as a professor using the cover to hunt down an old enemy. She stands up to him, he coldly puts her in her place, she hates him and he likes her fire. She can't stop thinking about him, she's a distraction from his true objection. Their Fire ends in an explosion of passion on his desk, they both agree was a mistake.
This book has angst, spice 3/5 nothing kinky but good enough, betrayal, kidnapping and yeah as the title says quadruplets.
Worth the read.

Last night I started reading this romance book about Galina and Adrik. This book by Bella is an OMG book and let me just say it is definitely going to be a #1 seller for her. This book has lots of twists, turns and surprises that makes your heart skip beats at times. If they have professors like Adrik I want to go back to college. :)

Four Reasons
They met when she questioned a statement he made as her professor. The romance started there and grew through the book. Being a Russian mafia member, his past is dark. When she found about her pregnancy, he thought pushing her sway was smart. Her kidnapping proved him wrong. As the book continues, their love grows and they get a HEA times four.

The author has given us a heart pounding story that pulls us into the lives of Adrik and Galina. The action-packed story keeps us turning the pages with connection, denial, secrets, danger and steam.
