Golden Angel has the perfect Christmas Treat!
A boxset called Steamy Stocking Stuffers,filled with delicious short stories from Stronghold and the new club in town,Marquis.
She kicks off with Gina and Will’s story.
They’ve been scening exclusively for a while now,but Gina needs more...a contract would be a good start.
And preferably a real relationship.
Not that Will doesn’t give her what she needs,or doesn’t stop when it gets too much...
It just feels too....casual,like he doesn’t need more than that.
Will knows somethings wrong from the minute he walks into Stronghold and looks at Gina.
Hearing her express her feelings makes him realize how time flies....and what he needs to do next.
Rick and Maria have had a rough year. They haven’t really played for too long. And certainly not at Stronghold.
But Maria is determined to take a big step this Christmas,a step she’s been reluctant to take before...do a public scene at Stronghold.
Because she knows Rick would love it.
And because she needs it,even if she dreads it at the same time.
The toy Rick reserved for their scene is one she hasn’t seen before,but the results are spectacular!
Jared and Leigh are one of the lucky couples to try out one of the themed hotelrooms at Marquis before it opens.
And Leigh is dying to find out what the theme of their room is.
If only Jared would tell her...even the choice of his clothing tells her nothing,damnit!
But when she sees the room,it is exactly what she secretly hoped for,and so much more!
Calling Jared Daddy gives everything just that little extra...
Domi is new to the scene,and is following Sub classes at The Marquis. She’s not ready for a relationship,and playing with the Doms at the club is enough. Mitch is one of them,and she enjoys playing with him because he feels the same. Plus his sadistic side fills a need within....Only how can he fill that need in the Medical Room? There are no whips there,and blood play is not allowed. If only she knew what his plans were....
Zach,Kincaid,Mitch and Brian have been friends since they started Dom classes at Stronghold. While Mitch and Brian know what they want and are working on a way to get there,Zach isn’t that sure.
He isn’t even sure he’s a good Dom.
And the way Kincaid is looking at him?
Makes him doubt he’s straight on top of everything else....
Until the evening they are at Kincaid’s place.
Those few drinks he had were just what he needed.
They give him a little courage,and....
This was a beautiful collection of short stories to get into the Christmas spirit! Each with their own quality. Even though they may all have been short,they were very delicious,and i enjoyed them....a lot!

All I Want for Christmas
Gina has been scening with Master Will for awhile but now she wants more. Does he want the same? This is short and hot.
Holiday Tease
Marie and Rick are returning to the club so she can give him something she's never before - a public scene. Like All I Want for Christmas, it's short and hot, with an added bit of sweet.
Little Leigh
Leigh wants to know what Jared's got in store for her and when she finds out she'll either be into it or not. I was into it, it was hot! I'm not normally into Daddy kink, but it's mild enough that it didn't bother me.
Doctor's Orders
When Domi finds out what Mitch has planned for her, will she submit? Or is it too much for her? Whew this one was hot! I really liked Domi and Mitch together and can only wish this one were a complete story so I could get their entire relationship in one sitting.
Mistletoe Meltdown
Zach has been off for awhile now and Master Kinkaid wants to know why. When he finds out...sparks fly and damn! This one is my favorite of the collection and like Doctor's Orders, I wish it were full length because I want to know everything about these two!

I had never read any books from Golden Angel prior to this collection of short stories. Some of them take place at Stronghold and some at Marquis. It is clear this is a catch up with beloved characters. That being said I enjoyed each and every story. Just because I didn't know much about them didn't take anything away from each story. In fact, it has made me want to go back and read more.

This collection of short stories and novellas was a blast! I've read most of them before, and I really didn't minded reading them again :D
All I Want for Christmas is Gina's and Master Will's story and I loved about them finally getting a HEA. They have been a part of the Stonghold series from the start and I always wanted them to sort their differences. This is the only story that has a HEA, since the others are either revisiting past Stronghold couples or couples soon(hopefully :D) to have a story in the Marquis series.
Holiday Tease - Master Rick and Maria were favorites of mine since they got their HEA and I hated seeing them suffer. I'm happy that in this one they get back into the groove.
Little Leigh - Jared and Leigh are always fun to be around! Both of them have been through disastrous relationships and them having a good time is heartwarming. They really have a good time, if you know what I mean!
Doctor's Orders - Mitch and Domi will be one of the couples in the new series Golden is working on and judging by this story, they are going to be suborn. Neither of them wants a relationship and both are trying to ignore the attraction between them, not the sexual one mind you...
Mistletoe Meltdown I kind of saw this coming, but it's also been a revelation. Kincaid and Zach will be a pleasure to watch. I can't wait to see how Zach will handle this whole revelation...
Yes, I have been deliberately vague because if you're a fan of Golden you won;t want to be spoiled, and you'll def not want to miss this. If you're someone who's thinking about trying her books, this is one of the best places to start because you see how hot her writing is(super hot!) and you see how well she handles relationships, before and after HEA.
All in all, read this because it's hot and fun and will make your day better.

December 15, 2020Steamy Stocking Stuffer is finally here! - books2read.com/u/bOxMBW
I am so excited to have these stories available again. Many of them were previously released in anthologies but otherwise haven't been for sale since then. Realizing how many of them were timed to be around Christmas anyway, I knew they'd make the perfect holiday release!
Add in a totally new story for Masters Kincaid and Zach, giving us a sneak peek at what their book will be like in the upcoming Masters of Marquis series. And, of course, one of the previously released stories is about Mitch & Domi, who will be the stars of the first Masters of Marquis book, Bondage Buddies (which is available on preorder sale already! - books2read.com/u/mZjoz5 )
I hope everyone enjoys getting their stocking stuffed!

This is a collection of stories set in Stronghold a BDSM Club for the Holidays. There are five stories in the Collection. Here is something about each of them.
1. "All I Want For Christmas": Will & Gina become quite a bit closer to each other, it includes hot sex including some anal sex. I thought it was terrific.
2. "Holiday Tease": Maria & Rick do a Public scene in the Club with a new item to the club. It is a hot scene with very hot sex.
3. "Little Leigh"; Jared & Leigh have an overnight session at the New Marquis club and Leigh gets a surprise as the theme is something Jared has set up, but she does not know about until she gets there. The play is extended and there is hot sex, including some really hot anal sex.
4. "Doctor's Order" Domi and Mitch do a scene where Mitch is in charge of Medical Play with Domi. Domi is surprised that she likes it and she has some hot sex.
5. "Mistletow Meltdown": Master Kincaid & Master Zach {a switch} have some hot MM action for the Holidays.

This is a lovely collection of short stories all with a different kink. Some are at Stronghold and some are at Marquis, I have always loved Stronghold and the group there but with these stories Marquis is becoming equally loveable. There is no angst I theses stories and no drama, just pure pleasure for the characters. While all do not have a happy ever after, they are happy for now and hold out promise for the future. A delightfully sexy read.
December 15, 2020
This is a collection of short stories centering around the Stronghold characters. I've only read a couple of books from that series but had no problem enjoying this compilation. There are no doubt characters that readers will be familiar with as well as new characters that will form part of the Marquis series to come. There really is something for everyone with a range of different kinks and characters included. I really did love the last story & am looking forward to reading more about Zach and Kincaid in Mistletoe Meltdown. Jared and Leigh in Little Leigh was also another standout.
November 20, 2020
This book of shorts should come with an imploding ovary warning! I love me some Stronghold! This was a fantastic visit with familiar characters and the last two stories have me pumped for Marquis! I absolutely cannot wait! I neeeeeeeds moar Kincaid and Zach! 🤤😍
December 15, 2020
I loved every one of these short stories. Each one hot and steamy and a look into both old and new characters. A deliciously satisfying and exciting read and one I highly recommend.
December 15, 2020
Holy hotness! This is one collection you don't want to miss. I love that it has a M/M story in here as well. It's filled with the steamy stories you need this holiday season with the Stronghold Doms. I couldn't put this down.
December 5, 2020
Absolutely loved this anthology! It was great to revisit characters from the stronghold series and get a glimpse into the masters of marquis series. I can not wait to read more about them in their own books. All of the stories are very short and only average about 10 chapters. All of them can also be read as stand alones regardless of if you read any of the stronghold books or not. Each story focuses on a different form of bdsm and slightly different relationship dynamics. I highly recommend if you like bdsm to get this anthology while you can!
December 18, 2020
There are five of the cutest short stories in the book. They are all hot and sexy. Each story is different and about the Doms and subs at Stronghold and Marquis. Enjoy

I loved every one of these stories! It's a fun glimpse into the holidays with the Stronghold gang. Every story was steamy, fun and packed full of Golden Angel goodness. It will definitely hold me over until the Masters of Marquis series starts. It's always nice to visit favorite characters from other stories but I have to say that Kincaid and Zach's story was my very favorite. This little bit was so well done, I could feel the emotions every step of the way. The mixture of apprehension, lust and adoration are perfect. I can't wait for their full story!
November 29, 2020
A collection of Dom's who will make you hot and wet. They will also have all your Christmas fantasy's come true. Each story tells you about a couple who are either attached or just like to have fun. But it also tells you about their lives and how their feelings can become complicated in a Dom/Sub relationship. I loved how each story kept you engaged and wanting more. Steamy Stocking Stuffers will be your go to story when you really want sometime yummy to read for Christmas.
December 4, 2020
I loved each of these short stories. If you are a fan of Golden Angel's Stronghold series, you NEED to get this little collection! Each story is a treat and will leave you wanting to go back and read Stronghold again!!! Do yourself a favor and get this!!

Fun & Sexy Stronghold Morsels!!
You will enjoy these whether you know the folks from Stronghold or not – but I recommend you read the series as it’s fabulous. Within you will find many personal views of the “lifestyle”. Someone who wants to do more than scene, but wants a formal relationship outside the club. Someone who is upping their game to have a public scene. Someone who needs a Daddy.
Includes a look at the new club Marquis, and the special rooms they have for play.
We also see the newcomers who are finishing classes to be either sub or dom.
We get under the skin of these characters, their insecurities, and what their partners provide for them. Pure entertainment, lots of “feels”.

Fun stories of Stronghold and Marquis
I’m a long time Golden Angel fan.
While my faves are the Big Bad Bunnies, I also enjoy Stronghold.
I’ve already read a few of these stories, but even the one not in my wheelhouse is well written.
Good job Angel!

If you're a Golden Angel fan, then you'll love this book! Well, it's a collection of novellas that are steamy hot and include stories from the Stronghold series and a new club, Marquis. I think my favorite was All I Want for Christmas. Will ended up being a big softie for Gina. All she had to do was ask. Zach and Kincaid's story was sizzling, too, and I look forward to more with them. Angel gives us old friends and newer ones in this box set. You'll love all of them! Oh, spanking is included. You're welcome! Grab this for your stocking NOW! It's only 99 CENTS, what do you have to lose? 4 stars

All I Want for Christmas - all Gina's wants is a relationship with Master Will. Can one night change everything for them?
Holiday Tease - all Marie wants is Master Rick's exclusive attention. Will his surprise be everything she dreams?
Little Leigh - a secret desire fulfilled for an especially good little girl. Will Master Jared's treat be everything Leigh wants when a trip to Stronghold's sister club, Marquis, is revealed?
Doctor's Orders - the New Submissives' Class at Marquis is set to graduate. Will Master Mitch's one last scene with his favourite pupil, Domi put her in the mind of possibly going exclusive?
Mistletoe Meltdown - A secret desire may just be fulfilled when one moment under the mistletoe reveals the reason why Zach's desire for Master Kincaid needs exploring.

Whether you've read any of the stories previously in other anthologies or just reading these for the first time, this is a great glimpse into the lives of the Stronghold Doms we've come to know and love. This is an absolute must for any collection and all of us who have visited Stronghold more than once.
