3.5⭐️ This was a quick and short story leading up to Eden and Derek’s relationship. It was okay.

It was a very non-Christmasy second chance romance that isn't meant for my age group because any man wearing a fedora is an immediate turn-off. Also, the conflict in this story was very elementary. If I remember correctly her brothers were the cause which if you can't stand your ground against her brothers then you weren't meant to last in that family to begin with. I didn't completely understand the family dynamic either but I don't think that was super important to the overarching plot of this story (this isn't a mafia romance). I did enjoy the ending and his energy there. It definitely gave. Other than that, it wasn't horrible but it wasn't groundbreaking either. Cute.

Derek and Eden have some unfinished business indeed. This one was a short, hot tale that will have you anticipating their story. Can't wait to read their book.

Annnnnnd, she's back! As prequels go, On The Naughty List was good and hot! I can appreciate a sexy and intense teaser. Whew chile! Derek James Clark had to show young Eden he did not come to play. I can’t wait to read their full story in Her Naughty Suitor.

My Thoughts.....
What a surprise this was getting the read that was quite a naughty, gritty, passionate, sweet and explosive one that was simply lovely of these two Eden and Derek. Eden knew what she wanted and went after it in this short romantic steamy read! I can't hardly wait to get the entire story about these two of Eden and Derek's journey.

WOW Excellent
Oh My! There is plenty of sexy action to keep you entertained and there is a lot going on at any given time, which is not surprising. I like that Eden always trys give as much as she gets what can I say bout this story: its exceptional, funny, loving, heartbreaking and powerful! There is lots of commentary but I would be writing a book myself. It's amazing story and memorable book of this series. These gentleman refuses to give up their women. Derek is charming to just about anyone, but you can't help but like him. This was a feel good read with easy to love characters who just wanted to love and be loved

You did me wrong
I was all in it, like all your book. As if I'm the woman of the hour. Can you imagine being in the beginning of the book going through everything feeling the emotions, being made love to.and stop, no no no you don't tease us like that. I just really enjoy reading your books and not a good at waiting because of your books being so good. I'll just have to wait until next year to enjoy more on the naughty list.

Good start!!!
This novella definitely peaked my interest enough that I'm looking forward to Eden and Derek's full story. However, it earned less than five stars from me due to being hard to follow at certain points, and seemingly switching POVs mid chapter. Now that might just be my perception, but I found myself re-reading certain portions for more clarity. Good story overall.

Wow
2nd story that I have read from this author. The two stories I read were holiday shorts leading to full length stories in 2019. I am very intrigued by the Rose and Valentine famalies. I will be reading all of their stories in order in the near future. I also cannot wait to see what new stories she has in store for us in 2019.

A Sneaky Peek
Well, Eden finally stuck out her chest and Derek bowed to her will, but still reminded her that he was in charge and she was in fact his. I love it. Stephanie, you know that I am Team Valentine, but you are testing my loyalty with this darn Rose Family. Stand up Stephanie and take a well-deserved bow!

I read the " Her Naughty Suitor" prior to reading this, so I blame myself for knowing the outcome. However, I enjoyed seeing Norma again, even for a moment. I wanted to know more about the convo the Rose brothers had with Quentin, Luke, and Derek, which appeared in "Mine," and this shed a light on that convo.

Prequel to...
"Her Naughty Suitor". The book was read over 2 years ago, mistake reading this prequel. Positive, missing the " Rose and Valentine" clans. Did this short seemed rushed? Two examples, how does pecan colored skin turn deep chocolate? And was "Derek" wearing a fedora at dinner?

Excellent read
Excellent read, I enjoyed the storyline. Derrick and Eden had a short erotic tryst. I looked forward to their full story. It was also good to hear Jaden and Claudia announce to the family they’re expecting a baby. I recommend this novella.

For it to be a VERY short story, it was just okay. There was some dialogue that occurred in the book that really could've been left out. It was too drawn out and we didn't get a full explanation behind a certain situation that occurred.

OMG
Dereck and Eden are going to burn up the pages. We have known from the beginning the were going to hot. This short story just proves us right. Breathlessly waiting for the full scoop.
