Krampus Doms

by Kessily Lewel

Lydia Kaye's life has been marked by one terrible choice after another, culminating in an accidental fire that attracts the attention of two devilishly handsome strangers.

But they aren't just a pair of hot, dominant men - They are the immortal embodiment of punishment packed into two sexy bodies. When they claim her as their mate, she’ll learn the price of her mistakes one painful punishment at a time.

For one year, she will atone for her sins...but will it be enough to earn her a place by their side for eternity?

Be aware this is a dark-ish BDSM romance, heavy on the punishment and kinky sex scenes.


The Krampus Collective
Once he was a solitary immortal. A creature out of nightmares. The embodiment of punishment. As humanity grew and spread across the globe, he split apart to keep the balance. Now there are twelve.
Connected but individual, they carry out the duties of Krampus by punishing the wicked. The tears and cries of pain from their victims sustain them.

But this is different.

It’s time for them to start choosing mates. Each year some will step forward to begin the search for that one naughty sinner who fits their unique preferences. For the first time their discipline will be tempered with mercy and care.

They each have one year to find love with the human they choose. One year to convince that mate to stay. One year to punish, train, and cherish.

Each book will stand alone. Every story is unique.

About the author

USA Today Bestselling Author Kessily Lewel, and her darker side Sadie Marks, are two halves of the same author. All of her work falls under the category of power-exchange romance. Kessily’s books tend more towards sexy romance with a side of domestic discipline, while Sadie has been sticking to sci-fi, with her race of Dominant aliens who are looking for a few good humans to call their own.

She has been in love with fantasy, sci-fi and horror since she was a child. She grew up reading Stephen King, Asimov, Robert Heinlein, and others, so it was only natural that one day she’d write her own worlds—though hers do seem to have a lot more sex and BDSM in them.

[Petra Hart · Rating 4 out of 5]

One of the better Krampus romances!* It takes great liberties with the traditional story because 1) they punish only adults, one a year 2) there 12 Krampuses (all the better to stretch a series out) and 3) they can choose to pick a “bad” girl out that they’re drawn to, keep her for a year, and see if she’s compatible as a mate.

Pluses: the kink is well done, especially if you love spankings (ahem. In her case, daily for a year).

In the case of Krampus Doms 2 of the Krampuses fixate on the same girl and decide to share her “discipline.”

*CW for noncon kidnapping and punishment. All s.x is consensual. Mention of really horrific punishment for irredeemable people on the truly naughty list.

My last review got deleted somehow… overall not the best one. My least fav in the series. It was very dull for it to have 2 Krampus Doms. I was barely moved.

Spice 🌶️🌶️
MFM, BDSM, punishment, retelling.

I didn't mind reading this book and enjoyed how the author linked in the fables of Krampus. Lydia our FMC has a rough life that put her on the radar of Nick and Kristopher (our Krampus demons). I enjoyed the theory that they take a person and punish them over the year and they repent for the black marks on their soul.
What I did find frustrating was that yes, Lydia was punished (from the sounds of it, only through spankings), and she felt like she was repenting, but there was no actual working through her sins. It kind of brushed over it.
There are some spicy scenes but the seem rushed and not very well written.

[Irish_I_was_reading · Rating 1 out of 5]

This book is classified as Romance, and is book three of a standalone series. It does not have a trigger warning list.

The book is written in third person. This book follows multiple people: Lydia Nick, and Kristopher. Lydia aged out of foster care and accidentally caught a building on fire. Nick is Krampus, well one of the twelve, and he is looking for his mate. He is rougher, biker looking. Kristopher is another one of the twelve Krampus' and is polished and elegant.

I ended up DNFing this book about 71% through due to the author repeating, word for word, from previous books. This series had a lot of potential but the copy/paste of wording was getting tiresome.

I received an ARC from the author and am voluntarily leaving my review. Lydia is going to atone for her wrongdoing. It is going to happen in the most unexpected way. She will receive the attention of two possible mates. I do not know if that is lucky for her or not. I have not read any of the other Krampus books. This book attracted my attention though. It was a story with plenty of punishment dished out but it was not one of just time served. She is what they both want and they can be very convincing

Lydia has been bad, and now she must atone for her sins. There two Krampus who want her, and they've decided to share. The twist to her year of punishment... they want to keep her. This is a really fun book. It's the first in the series for me, but it didn't matter that I missed the first two. It's sexy... it's steamy... Lydia takes her punishments as doled out, but makes Nick and Kristopher work for her affection. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

CW: MFM and BDSM
Real Rating: 3.5
This is the third and currently, the last book in this series recommended to me by a friend. In this installment, we get two Krampus who want the same girl. I will say that this book didn't flow the way the other two did. It was a solid read but I felt it was too short and we didn't get enough of the punishments or the FMC interaction with the two Krampus. I also think some of the internal Krampus conflicts resolved too quickly or with just one thought.

[Mary · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a very interesting and intriguing story. It is dark and heavy on punishment, dominance and more punishment. Definitely has some BDSM and may push boundaries for some. Lydia has been very bad now she is faced with two doms who want to punish her and claim her. Very Krampus and highly erotic.

[Book Lover · Rating 5 out of 5]

I didn't read the first 2 in this series but it didn't matter. Lydia's infractions brought them all together and changed their lives forever.

A very entertaining story that captured my interest and attention after reading the intriguing blurb. I chose to read this book because it sounded different from the norm. It was highly entertaining and I was glad I read it.

Krampus Doms by Kessily Lewel is a new author for me and I’m liking her style. This story was interest filled with some sticky situation with great characters and hot chemistry.

I read another book in this series a year or two ago. I had just forgotten how amusing they are. This one seemed a little more introspective. Nick and Kristopher were a little nicer than I remember Sir being, and they seemed to really help Kelsey.
The epilogue was pretty funny.

[Sydnie Nova · Rating 3 out of 5]

Reading this without having read the other Krampus Collective books has me wondering if I should have picked those up first and got more of a taste for these "proclivities" and "punishments"....but at the same time, the story did it's thing enough for me.

[Lisa Maddison · Rating 4 out of 5]

Krampus?

Krampus has divided itself into twelve different people so it can punish all the wicked individuals. But every once in a while he has the chance to pick himself a mate. It was very spicy and kept my attention until the end.

[Biggs_bookshelf · Rating 3 out of 5]

fun theme

A fun theme but I had hoped for some seriously hot punishment scenes that delved into the bdsm world and left you panting. The few in here were okay but it just didn’t hit the mark for me.

[Bella · Rating 1 out of 5]

With the title and description this book has, the amount of spice is really disappointing. There wasn't a complete scene and everything felt super rushed though. At times it felt like a closed door romance because of how it was just skipped over. Cute story though - .5/5🌶️

[Kayla P · Rating 2 out of 5]

This was painfully boring. The story was pretty unique and interesting at first but it took so long to get anywhere. Then the first time they were intimate wasn’t even on page which is insane for a spicy book. The feelings of guilt and disbelief were so repetitive it drove me crazy

[K G Wakeley · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved it..

I must admit how much I enjoy reading the Krampus Collective Books..each book different but full of the same steamy punishments for naughty girls. A must read.

[Rhonda Nygaard-Beck · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved it

This one is just as good as the first two. I enjoyed that there are 2 krampus guys in this one.

[Angeley · Rating 5 out of 5]

Krampus Doms By: Kessily Lewel. Definitely I enjoyed this book plot. This is the third book and I haven't read the other two book. I really love each characters and the plot line.

[Sue :) · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another fun Krampus read.

Kessily Lewel does it again. Reforming bad girl s one spanking at a time. I wonder what the next book in the series will bring.

[Knightofni · Rating 5 out of 5]

Oh my goodness! I never knew this was a trope I needed in my life.

I'm signing up to Kindle Unlimited to read the rest and am not ashamed!

[Crystal · Rating 4 out of 5]

Really good book I do love the characters in their own ways but in their own ways they annoyed me and I'm not sure what it is

[Lori Laidlaw · Rating 5 out of 5]

I've read three from the Krampus Collective so far and each is refreshingly different. A very good story.

[Nichelle Hamblin · Rating 2 out of 5]

Implied spice for most scenes. A different MMF story, but not super interesting.

DNF 32%: The plot, characters, pacing..... none of it was good. Disclaimer: started here at book 3

Wonderful

I am really enjoying this series. She really knows how to spin a story to keep you entertained. I loved watching how all three characters evolved together.

[Brina · Rating 4 out of 5]
