5 Star Review of Hope’s First Christmas (Brie’s Submission #19) by Red Phoenix
What's not to love? It's the most magical time of the year and also happens to be my most favourite holiday. I love any story that is centred around Christmas; it’s a time for family and friends to get together and celebrate life and Hope’s First Christmas is a great example of just that.
I was so excited when I learnt that Red Phoenix was doing this story and it was everything I had hoped for and oh so much more.; I love being back with Brie, Sir, Hope and their extended family.
From the first to the last chapter, I was engrossed and read it in one go. So many feel good moments throughout this short novella but oh how they impacted on me. The scene between Rystar and Ms. Clark was poignant and so heartfelt that it brought tears to my eyes.
Not saying anything more as you need to experience this story yourself. I will say that I fell more in love with Thane and Rystar whilst reading this story. A little gem and a wonderful heartfelt addition to the series.

Hope's First Christmas (Brie's Submission Book 19) by Red Phoenix
I received this book from the author for an honest review.
What an awesome surprise!! I legit was clapping so hard when I got this ARC. I love love love this addition to the series. This book shows so much love and relationship growth from Sir and Brie but also from the entire gang.
First up, Rytsar is the best in this book and I so want this heart to be won by someone but at the same time selfish me wants him to stay with Brie and Sir. I mean they are a hot threesome when they scene together. But his and Samantha’s moment made my heart flutter. Samantha needs to do some serious reflections about her life and choices.
Sir….he was so destroyed by the holiday but seeing him embrace the traditions again and even adding his family flair was perfect. He truly is a generous Master to Brie but also to all the people he calls his family.
What??? Does Lea have a love interest?? Did we see a love connection in the making??? I mean I am ok with that and so can’t wait to read more of her and HIM!!!
Oh Mary, *Sigh* I love you and want you to figure your life out.
Brie and Hope are the heart of this book. Hope is experiencing her family and all the love they have for each other. Brie and her overwhelming love just shine in this book. There are so many scenes where we see the old naïve sub but then to see her shining as a confident, married, collared sub. It just makes me want to go back and reread the entire series again!!!
The short glimpses into the other Doms and Subs we have grown to love in the series made this holiday loving girl happy. The Training Center scenes were the BEST. Be ready for some hawt reads!!!

This series is just like coming home to family and friends. We may be "out of town" while waiting for the next book but its always a joy coming back home, "to a new story". Christmas time is magical and add a new baby to the mix along with the best of "kinky fun" makes it impossible to put the book down until the end. And you end up never wanting it to end. Lol's.
So much fun in this story, with a touch or two on some past difficult times, makes for a well-rounded, emotion-filled read. From baby's first word to the fun of new kittens to the sexy "Kinky Eve" games at the submissive center. Can't forget "Sexy Santa" and the "Rumble in the Hills". (now we really know what Red thinks of Mr Red's motorcycle) **wink-wink** At the very end we enjoy just a taste of the next book!! Yay!!!
Wish I could give more than 5***** because these characters are a part of my heart and reader's soul. You don't want to miss this story. Enjoy the ride!!!

Hope's First Christmas by Red Phoenix. Wow what a kinky Christmas story. I love reading about what Brie and the gang is getting into. I love the sense of family that they have all created. No one has to be alone. The family dynamic between Sir, Rystar and Brie is just so strong. It was funny that
like Brie I was missing Rystar at the Kinky Eve get together. It's like the trio has become one. I love the change in Sir, I loving seeing his growth since Hope was born and really since Brie has come into his life. I like to see the mystery and suspense that comes with the kink. It makes me curios to learn more. The idea of Kinky Eve was fun. What I like the most is when the trio get together their sex scenes burn up the pages. The stuff that Sir and Rystar come up with man its super hot. Red Phoenix does a great job with these stories, she keeps me wanting more and more of them. If she keeps writing I will keep reading . Awesome holiday read with a ump.

This is a upbeat novella about our much loved characters during the Christmas holidays and their first one with a little family. It is a great story for the up coming Christmas period that not only includes our favourite three but also all the friends from the training centre. The story is really about enjoying friends and family whilst sharing the gift of love (yeah there are other gifts too, some extravagant, come on we're talking Rytsar here).
Very enjoyable, the only thing that didn't really work for me is the Shadow/Cayenne thing, (as an owner of cats I have yet to see a tom cat take any interest in his offspring), that is just from my perspective and does not affect the rest of the story.
If you have read Brie's submission you will not want to miss this book.

Once again Red has out done herself!! I thought nothing would have topped the last book but I was wrong. This book has so much love and kink. It is hard to narrow down to a favorite part of the book because the whole thing is amazing.
The start of the book leaves you not wanting to put it down. There is suspense and questions that need answers. Then there are the funny jokes and pranks played that makes you know the characters not only love each other but respect each other.
The gifts that everyone gives each other lets you know that they not only know what the other needs but that everyone is so in tuned to one another. I am amazed every time I read one of Red’s books how much the characters feelings run so deep for not only their loved ones but everyone around them. The series as a whole has taken on a life of its own and I can’t wait to see what comes next!! ❤️

WOW WOW WOW, a quickie detailing Hope's first christmas with the sub school family. I absolutely loved every moment of their christmas celebrations. I want to join the christmas party at school. Each character celebrates christmas in a different way and yet they all come together and share the silly sexy season. An easy read that brings the spirit of the season to a bah humbug Sir and his new family.
November 6, 2019
What a wonderful story to put anyone in the Christmas spirit. The magic between Sir and Brie, family and friends, and the absolute wonder of a child. Old traditions are honored, new traditions started and of course, the love that is felt with each word as gifts are exchanged. This left my heart full and my cheeks hurting from smiling so much. I was honored to receive an ARC of this book and am proud to leave my honest and voluntary review.

Hope’s First Christmas
It’s Christmas time! What better way to celebrate then with a fun filled, family and friends filled party on Christmas Eve and then a dinner party on Christmas Day! The beauty of this book is the development of this group of friends throughout this series that comes to a pinnacle in this book! Revelations come to light, surprises happen and yet there is still some lingering loose ends that haven’t been dealt with, leaving us want more. These characters are easy to love because of Brie and her nature - how she’s dealt with things throughout the series that have endeared her to the others in the group! Her grace under pressure, love for others and beautiful soul makes her a heroine for the ages. I just can’t say enough to express how much I loved this book as well as the entire series! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Brilliant Book
I loved this book and the Christmas setting this was another great story and loved them all coming together but missed Brad in this book at Christmas.
However I have to say even though I love all of these characters Rytsar is becoming more and more adorable... who would have thought that after he is such a larger than life Dominant.
I love how he is with Hope and the ribbing between Thane and him they are so good as brothers. I can’t believe book 20 in next and no more 😬 I will however move on to Rise of the Dominants after book 20 and see how they are as younger men.

Hope’s First Christmas is book 19 in Brie’s Submission series by Red Phoenix. It is a shorter book than the others, but it is such a heart warming addition to this series! Red really shoes not on Thane’s tender side but Rytsar as well!!! I love Christmas so for a book in this series to focus on this joyous holiday made me super excited!!! If you love the hot steamy scenes then don’t worry this story isn’t only full of sweet tender moments there are plenty of steamy scenes from this dynamic trio!!!

Through the eyes of a child.
I love how Brie and Rytsar made Sir celebrate Christmas for Hope. Between the charity event and the motorcycle ride there were plenty of hot scenes. I was pleased to see all the Christmas fun Sir had planned for Brie. It reminds you the BDSM is more about relationships not just sex. I love how the vanilla events like Hope's first word and the Kinky Christmas mix. It shows how the two worlds can mix with out being offensive.

Christmas spirit is spreading joy all over the place. Brie has taken her gruff Christmas hating men and turned them into cute but still dominate Christmas cheer givers. Blessing abound as they celebrate Hopes first Christmas. Such a sweet holiday story. Yes it still has some spicy scenes but we get to see the mushy center of some of our favorite alpha males.

Nice easy read
I've read all of the books and loved them all. I enjoyed the series because it went from a very well written erotic fiction novel to a brilliant series of twisting and turning stories about the lives of people around Brie but peppered with kinky scenes. What's not to love?

Closure
This book helps understand Mrs. Clark. It also gives a clear view of Mary and how much she has grown, how far she has gone and how has she have started to overcome everything she endured as a child.

Lovely Christmas
For a submissive Brie and her Master Thane Davis, Christmas has two different meanings. With an open heat Sir Davis brings joy to his sub, and remembers what Christmas is about. So much love for this story.

Amazing, heartwarming, sexy and exciting. I love the characters coming together and even some coming to terms with the past and letting go of the series hurt. It's truly an awesome read.

Xmas
This was a super sweet filler book in the series. Brie and Sir have an epic Xmas planned for baby Hope. Not to be outdone the Russian humorously goes overboard as only he can. Family and friends join in the holiday spirit. Next please.

I have loved following this series of Sir and the expansion of their family
The only complaint is that sometimes it will have me reading the same pages over again they can be a little distract

Such a fun way to spend Hope's first Christmas. Didn't hear how Lillys baby is doing, I'm sure that the Reynolds are happier than ever, but nothing was said about him in this one. Interesting to see what the interview with Master Nash will consist of.

What's not to love?
Rytsar, Brie, and Sir always take me away. Add all of the rest of the characters and it's a truly wonderful holiday. I did miss the Captain though. Thanks. JP
