New Year’s Eve was supposed to be easy for Elena cheap champagne, a crowded house, and a forgettable midnight kiss. Instead, a snowstorm knocks the power out and strands her with the two men she absolutely shouldn’t want.
Rafael Martinez—her best friend’s dad—older, steady, and way too good at seeing through her good-girl act. And Leo Guevara—her other best friend’s older brother—tattooed chaos with a filthy mouth and a bad habit of flirting with everyone.
One very explicit round of Never Have I Ever turns confessions into dares, dares into kisses, and kisses into Elena between them, finally getting every wicked thing she’s fantasized about.
It’s just one night.
Until morning comes… and she has to figure out how to face her best friends when their father and brother have already had her.
Never Have I Ever is a very high-heat, forbidden New Year’s Eve novelette
• Snowed-in, power-outage forced proximity
• Best friend’s dad × best friend’s older brother (from a different family)
• MFM threesome
• Light MM (kisses/touching), bi/pan energy
• Age gap, power imbalance, and a whole lot of “we really shouldn’t”
• Exhibitionism / risk of being seen or overheard
• One intense night and a charged HFN
If you’ve ever looked at your best friend’s dad or brother and thought, “Absolutely not—but also, maybe yes,” this one’s for you.
Izzy Ravas The way the words written begins to tease me in such a delicious sting that a burn can create;in this case it’s every word written is starting to create within myself while making me start to crave what’s to come in such anticipation, want. No. Need!! I can only imagine what it would feel to be the FMC. The way this book captures such a thrilling slow burn, tease… That’s the words because the way I have held my breath, gasped along with Elena, or my own body, mind, and soul sync within each hers; Rafa and Leo’s too. It takes one Hell of a writer for these amount of feelings that’s ready to become fireworks within myself. I know. I am not nor will be the only one. Where temptation becomes the air you need to finally breathe for the first time in so long because of the feelings that built up and sat there or when what society may see as wrong becomes oh so right in ways that me, you- the reader becomes a little jealous but also get to live a similar craving within a book such as Izzy’s to feel seen and heard. Or maybe, just get to experience something you never knew could be so everything and more.
& I want to add that books teach, helping the growth within ourselves blossom, heal-mend, and connect in ways that simply a therapist cannot… but also. For me. I am finally learning another language; a language that is part of my history and in my blood I am very proud of. Because of Izzy Ravas, Mi Hermosa Reina. I get to learn through her writing and really learn in a way I never thought I could nor be able to read it-learn it- and not just listen!!
I really enjoyed this story and I can't wait for you to read this 🥰
Our fmc is Elena. I really liked her. She is sweet, kind, a little reserved but once she opens upto you she is everything.
Our mmc's are Rafael and Leo. Rafael is her best friend's dad and Leo is Elena's Best friend's older brother. Rafael has this calming personality that i liked but underneath his calm persona, he is freaking out because he really likes Elena and Leo and he knows he shouldn't. Leo, he is charming, carasmatic and just knows who he is and what he wants.
The plot was amazing. Whilst Elena is celebrating new year's eve with her best friend's, things take an unexpected turn when Rafael, Leo and Elena decide to do something crazy and do a round of 'Never Have i Ever' and everything becomes really intense when secrets are revealed. I loved their dynamic so much and I really want to see more of these 3 and how their relationship evolves and morphs into something more than just one night.
Such an amazing read. I hope we get more of these 3 🥰
Thank you so much Izzy and your beautiful team for the opportunity to read this story. I am forever grateful 🙏
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ / 🌶🌶🌶🌶
🎆 Best friend’s dad 🎇 Best friend’s older brother (different family) ❄️ Snowed-in, power-outage, fireplace vibe. 😈 why choose (poly) 🥵 One wild night 🤫 multiple pov
I’m screaming!!! Izzy, you never disappoint. The TENSION omg Izzy it was giving!! I love a good “I shouldn’t want this but I do” moment and god this was perfection. Who knew some tequila and a not so innocent game of Never Have I Ever would turn out really right and give you the best start to the new years. Rafa and Leo gave the perfect mix of degradation and praise, and don’t get me started on the amount of times they asked how everyone was doing. CONSENT KINGS!! I love the way they were rough but gentle with Elena, they made her feel safe and secure. Ok, the banter? Was everything! Haha I was yelling “cállate cabron” at the book when Leo was talking at the end, until Rafa kicked him to shut up 😂. Like goddamnit my dude you’re about to get everyone caught 😂. Also, gracias por el antojo, ahora quiero tacos de birria.

Ohhh besties, "Never Have I Ever" came in H-O-T. This book is a snowed-in, power-outage fantasy that turns a harmless New Year’s Eve game into absolute chaos... in the best way. Elena is relatable and curious, and being trapped with Rafael: the sexy AF, older best friend’s dad... and Leo: the HOT tattooed menace, filthy banter king... is a recipe for bad decisions and even better chemistry.
The banter snaps, the tension simmers, and when the dares start flying? One-handed reading, no notes, IYKYK! The forbidden vibes, age gap, and “we really shouldn’t” energy are dialed all the way up, with a bit of MM touches and delicious 'risk of being seen' heat. It’s fast, feral, and wildly addictive! Perfect for a spicy palate cleanser that will absolutely wreck your TBR!

Never Have I Ever is a short, very high-heat novella serving a forbidden New Year’s Eve threesome featuring Elena, her best friend’s father Rafa, and her other best friend’s older brother Leo. Yes… it’s exactly as unhinged as it sounds. 🥂🔥
Turns out all it takes is tequila and a game of Never Have I Ever for things to go very right. Rafa and Leo delivered the perfect blend of praise and degradation, and the constant check-ins? Chef’s kiss. Consent kings, honestly. 👑
A deliciously naughty, happy-for-now holiday read that kicked off the New Year the right way… and now I desperately need more of the “now.” 👀✨

IZZZYYY!!!! I love and hate you lmao!! Why do you do this to me.....always leave me wanting more.
Never Have I Ever was a spicy little NYE snack of a story!! I've never read the most perfect dedication!!
"To the reader who swore they'd behave this year... And yet you still clicked on the book about a young woman getting spit roasted by her best friend's dad and her other best friend's older brother. Consider this your official relapse."
How can you not just dive in headfirst and not even look back at the warnings 😏 Meeee that's who!! I literally ate this book up, then was up in Izzy's DMs asking how could she do this to me haha.
Everyone needs to read this when it's available....I know I will be reading it again, and every year!!
Best friends hot dad and other best friends hot older brother, yes please. My lanta.
I wanna be Elena for 1 night, specially this night. I want more of these 3, but would also love this being their story. Short, perfect, smutty, and me jealous of Elena lol.
Elena, Rafa, and Leo are wanting to celebrate the new year. But the new year seems to have plans for them. The power is out, they are snowed in, and a bottle of tequila is available. They decide to play a game and things get a bit hot. But will they enter the new year taking a chance? Well yes obviously they do, no go read it and see for yourself.
Damn! What a way to celebrate the New Year 🥵 I’m not jealous at all 🤭
Elena goes to a NYE party at her best friends’ house, a home she has visited for years, their other best friend and his brother attend, also her best friends’ father is present along with other guests who leave early due to the snowstorm. Javi and Camilla drink too much and end in bed early. Leaving Rafa, Elena and Leo who decide to play games…this leads into, well, you will have to read it to find out 😉
I loved this so much. The yearning, and angst, the I-can’t-take-it-anymore-I-have-to-kiss-them-right-now. It’s perfect. I adore Elena and Rafael coming to accept their attraction, and Leo just being like, "yeah, obviously." The resulting dynamic is excellent. This is a super duper spicy novellette, but there's a delicate balance of plot and character building to it. It's a slow tease to a perfect new relationship. It all wraps up really nicely, and I enjoyed every second I spent reading it.
This was the perfect spicy way to ring in the New Year 🥵✨ Short, addictive, and absolutely unhinged in the best way.
Give me an age gap and I’m already seated but add best friend’s dad and another best friend’s brother?! The tension was delicious and the chemistry was instant.
For a novella, this packed a punch: flirty banter, taboo vibes, and just the right amount of spice to leave me satisfied but still wanting more.
“Since I’m going to hell anyways, I might as well give the Devil and me something to talk about” 😈🔥
What would you do if on New Year’s Eve your best friend’s dad and your other best friend’s brother asked you to play Never Have I Ever with them? Well Elena decided to play… and trust me when I tell you she really had a good time 😏
How could she not? Rafael and Leo are every girl’s dream. Rafael is caring and protective, Leo is funny and has trouble written all over him, and they are both sexy as hell.
One round of Never Have I Ever turns into dirty confessions… that turn into touches… that turn into kisses and in the end Elena is between them while they worship her.
Ngl… I was a little bit jealous 😅
So if you are curious to see how their year ended up with a bang (pun intended 😏) tomorrow you can download it for free via BookFunnel until downloads run out.
Izzy wrote a short spicy novella and I couldn't put it down!
Elena, Rafael and Leo end up snowed-in during a power outage and they turn up the heat. This book has so many of my favourite tropes and add that it was packed with witty banter and I'm sold!
Never have I ever (the adult version) is a fun, spicy game and I need more of these characters because the tension and chemistry between these characters is undeniable!
Reading anything by Izzy makes me feel like a ✨puta✨ but in the best way😂
How can you complain when the book is less than 90 pages, you get your besties dad & your other besties brother and a fun game of never have I ever.
I loved the dynamic between Rafa, Leo & Elena. They all have this push and pull relationship that makes you laugh and wonder what exactly Leo has done in his life. And the Spanish talk you get is always a plus 😮💨
When I tell you there is always one Izzy Ravas book that stick with me in my mind and my heart each year I mean it and maybe only 2 weeks into 2026, but this one could be it! I love the characters, the dynamics, the taboo, and the chemistry. Literal perfection the only thing I wanted was more like it could have gone on for 500 pages and I am not sure I would have my fill, but this one is amazing.
You want a fast paced spicy novella to bring in the new year?? THIS IS THAT BOOK this story had me cackling at the quips and the tension between the MCs was chefs kiss…Izzy has a way of pulling you in and leaving you wanting more and I hope this isn’t the last time we see these characters
Izzy got me good....this story was amazing!!!!!! Why choose and everything I love!! I wanted more of these 3. They were everything and rang in my new year perfectly.
Izzy Ravas does it again! Taking something Taboo and turning it into a lust-filled, sexy and swoon worthy read. This little New Years novella was a quick and fun read filled with steamy spice and brimming with authentic care. As always I look forward to what this author will throw at us next.
This was such a fun, quick, spicy read. I love the banter, tension and chemistry between them all. Perfect read to start the new year with new reading goals.
Now this is the way to ring in the New Year!! I don’t usually read books with MMF in it but for Izzy, I’ll read it. But man this one was good. Both men were 🥵 Especially when they spoke Spanish. Gosh I hope we see more of these three. Please please!!
Such a fun and spicy read for New Years! Elena, Rafa, and Leo have a fun little game after everyone else goes to bed and it turns spicy! Just another amazing read by Izzy Ravas!
