Enticing the Scrooge

Rate this book
Edison Scrooge must choose a bride in order to claim his inheritance. He never expected to find the girl of his dreams begging and frostbitten on his doorstep. Blessing Wakefield was an orphan herself, now she spends her days selflessly caring for lost children. That ends now. Edison intends to make Blessing his wife and keep her spoiled, so she never has to be hungry, cold...or unsatisfied...another day of her life. He wouldn't dare hope that such an angel could ever love a grump, such as himself, even if their physical passion burns like a roaring fire. Christmas miracles do happen, however, and Blessing just might find room in her heart to fit a certain gorgeously cranky Scrooge...

Well that was unhinged. It’s like someone told Jessa Kane her stuff was too tame, so she said ‘hold my beer’ and proceeded to write this bit of crazy.
Imagine Cinderella meets A Christmas Carol meets Little Orphan Annie: the porno. That’s pretty much a summary of the story. I was agape at the wedding scene, clutching at my non-existent pearls thinking nothing could be more depraved, and then… the carriage ride. It was ott, silly and insane, so overall a fun time. So if you like JK, you’ll like this because this was JK in 6G.
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.

This is an insta everything.
A funny story, at Jessa Kane's style.
Edison Scrooge (his great-grandfather is Ebenezer Scrooge), is thirty years old and has to marry at Christmas night, so he can inherit, if not, all the money goes to the bank.
Blessing is an orphan and is eighteen years old, so this is an age gap story.
It's a Christmas Carol retelling.

(...)I’m already unzipping my pants when the preacher turns his attention to me, asking me the same question.
“Do you, Edison Scrooge, t-t-take Blessing Wakefield to be your lawfully wedded wife?”(...)


(...)Ben backs out of the room while mopping his brow, along with the preacher, but they remain in the doorway, watching with clear conflict—and something darker—in their expressions.
They remain there too long for my taste.
“More. More!”
she cries out beneath me, my miracle of a wife.
“Get the fuck out,”
I growl at the men, beginning to pump.
“Oh my God!”(...)


(...)We are in the lobby of the opera house and everything appears to be moving in slow motion.
I’m sweating, a goose’s egg stuck in my throat.
Every man is looking at Blessing.
Of course, they are.
She is eighteen, fuck-mussed and braless.
Her mouth is puffy from blowing me, her eye makeup smudged from the gallon of come I pumped onto her innocent-looking face.
Was I insane to bring her out in public?(...)


(...)It’s torture to take my eyes off my wife for a second, but I’m sensing a change in the room’s atmosphere, so I scan the room above her head.
Men are angling themselves to get a better look at Blessing.
Some of them have noticeably tented their pants and are too entranced by her to bother trying to hide their arousal.
One man turns and walks to a dark corner of the lobby and positions himself behind a heavy drape, his vigorous arm movements making it obvious that he’s jerking himself off.(...)


(...)Fists are now pounding at the door, but she doesn’t appear to hear them, her eyes merely scanning my face nervously.
“What’s wrong, Edison?”
“You don’t hear them knocking?”
“Who?”
The raps increase in volume and number.
Dear God.
I press her up against the door and pin her there with my hips, while fishing my phone out of my pocket.
I quickly dial Ben.
“Call security at the opera house.
Immediately.
They want my wife.
They are beating down the door for her.
And when you’re finished doing that, send a security team here to escort us out.
They’ll be with her permanently going forward.”(...)


(...)I straighten back into a sitting position on Edison’s lap.
I pull my knees up beneath my chin and I spin around, muscles of my sex contracted, all of my weight concentrated on my husband’s erection.
And it creates a wet, twisting effect that sends a wave of unimaginable sensation to my core.
This is friction like no other.
I spin and spin, using one hand on his hips to push off, and every time I turn to see his face, his handsome features are more and more blissed out.(...)


Do I have to say more?!? 😅 😂 🤣 😅 😂 🤣

Well … this is pretty much what I was expecting.

It can’t be a JK smut fest without an obsessively controlling man that knows no boundaries. A sweet, unassuming, naive girl that’s more than likely a virgin. Plus copious amounts of insatiable steam.

Plus she threw in a little festive cheer by channeling A Christmas Carol and a hoard of needy orphan children.

I… um… I…

Sonia thinking: man, it’s been a while since JK released an OTT book that’s silly with a side of “that’s nuts” 👀
Jessa Kane: hold my wine glass; I’m going in 😮‍💨😈.

Well that was… unhinged… lol. But it’s JK; I just can’t help myself. I’m not sure how I feel about the… um… orphan k ! N k. Or is it adoption k ! N k? 😅 whatever it is… I was feeling… some type of way 😬😳🫣.

Edison Scrooge (30) needs a wife in order to claim his inheritance. He holds a party to find someone he can marry. He’s not big on relationships and tends to… um… pay for his needs when the time comes. All’s going okay until he sees Blessing outside in the cold.

Blessing’s (18) an orphan and helps the orphanage in town. She oftentimes goes hungry and sacrifices herself in order to feed the kids, which is why she passes out. Of course, Edison notices her and wants her.

Rumors spread about her, saying she’s a gold digger and steals from the church. Edison decides to test her innocence.

And he does so… with his fingers 🫣😳.

Oh. God. This book was OTT craaaaazy 🤣🤣🤣

I could not help but giggle. The epilogue had me cracking up 😅😬. I swear. JK should try writing romcoms. The way her Hs become unhinged can be hilarious.

This would’ve been a higher rating if it wasn’t for the obvious DDlg tied to the orphan/adoption.

Listen. To each their own k ! N k, but yeah… I didn’t know how to feel about this.

The diiiirty talk was HAWT 🔥🔥 but not when it came to the DDlg 😅. I’m not the biggest fan… so it’s a ME problem (I think 😬😅).

Besides the uncomfortable v verification scene, the other ones were 🔥🥵💦. JK knows how to keep me glued to the pages. This woman (or team of people) needs to write a full length novel one day.

He messes up. That means, he MUST grovel 🤷🏻‍♀️. I didn’t see bl€€ding knees. Maybe next time JK? Lol

Back to the book. The OTT ness was just 🤌🏻 and 🤣🤣🤣.

That poor priest didn’t see IT coming (bahahaha pun intended).

And the opera house scene had me gasping 😅. The paranoia is real y’all.

Plus, the reason he ends up growing out a beard in the epilogue was kind of cute 🥹😅🤣.

I enjoyed it… for the most part 😉🔥.

⚠️safety squad⚠️
-no cheating/sharing/owd/omd
-mental health? The H goes ballistic and unhinged when it comes to the h. They stopped at 2 kids because he can’t survive her being in pain
-the H is VERY OTT jp so he sees any man as competition
-exhibitionism/claiming
-praise kink/degradation kink/anal play/anal sex
-daddy- DDlg
-no condoms/breeding
-virgin h (he takes it with his fingers 🫣)/H would basically pay for services in the past

3 stars

There was so many recs on FB for this that I just had to see what was all the fuss about. And boy was that utter madness! Glorious, unapologetic OTT smut! And not smut in the panty melting way - in fact the sex scenes left me quite cold in that aspect - but smut in the most outrageous and funny way possible 😳! I have never read smut so entertaining by its sheer zaniness 🤯🤪🤣!

My eyes went so big at the amount of outrageousness that steadily went crescendo as the short story unfurled! The H, Edison, is positively OTT obsessive-possessive. The things that goes through his mind and spurts from his mouth... oh divine goodness.

And that wasn't even the most shocking quote I guarantee you 🤣🤣🤣! JK was clearly on a roll. I laughed out loud, literally, at the opera scene. The 'spinning top' scene was quite a close second if I had to choose the most crazy scene 🤣🤪! And if Edison was raving OTT (actually I am quite concerned by his brand of delusional paranoia if this was RL), the h, Blessing is quite something also: with disturbing fantasies (that are even more disturbingly explained away in an almost believable way by JK, lol) that she is no shy to act upon, and abetting and indulging her husband's mental issue so willingly (almost criminally imho - it seems that his sexy wife's sauciness is toxic to his mental stability 🤣). They are really a bizarre pair matched in heaven.

3 stars because of my high enjoyment of this epic, packful nutty story, but also because the level of OTT-ness was a disservice to enjoying the spice. All in all, I will not soon forget this one 😁😂🤣!

I am a big fan of Jessa Kane and i read WHATEVER new she publishes. But this is one of her average "meh" stories despite the very deranged Scrooge in this one who was psychotic in mind in a very unhealthy and off-putting way. He made ME uncomfortable...and it was blaahhh overall.

I hate the role-playing Jessa has going on with her main-leads.Just ehhhh

This one was absolutely UNHINGEDDD 😭😭-

Jk did not hold back at all 💀- this story on Christmas miracles, orphans, and paranoia, was truly something else.

Idk why, but I have this inherent inclination to support every single JK book no matter what- and this one was so crazy and I loved it sm 😭☝️.

Anyways, to give the quote that literally sums up the entire book:

“You’re not an orphan anymore, angel. Daddy’s home.”



See ya'll next month 💀🤡☝️.

jessa kane literally gets more and more unhinged with every single release and i am LOVING it, i am LIVING for it, i am going INSANE over it.

why do i love these books so much?? they're tropey, they're cliche, they're instalove-y, they're all the same basic boilerplate, they're everything i criticise... but i'm addicted to them. i grew up on a steady diet of soap operas, my brain is wired to eat up characters and plots that are OTT and straight up batshit.

5/5 perverted, absolutely fucking unhinged stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

are jessa kane novellas the peak of quality literature? maybe not.

are they CONSISTENTLY 10/10 entertaining? absolutely.

if you have a spare 30 minutes and can suspend reality and just vibe out, add this to your list.

i love that her books simply defy time and reality. this is an edison scrooge novella and a christmas carol takes place in what? the late 1800s? that tracks since the heroine is a ‘beggar’ coming to his door and he has a butler who speaks like an old englishman. yet, he also drives a mercedes and uses the word lube. brilliant.

thank you, jessa. i’m never not entertained.

this might be jessa kane's most unhinged and deranged hero yet.

**

hero is so paranoid someone is going to steal his wife from him so he hires a full time security for her. it may be unrealistic, (they had sex in front of the priest...) but that's what i love about jk's works.

I want whatever JK was smoking while writing this book. Just when I think she cannot possibly top her OTT and ridiculousness she goes and proves me wrong with this book. She even kept upping it in this book from the weeding scene to the sleigh ride to the opera. Damn… a merry dirty filthy kinky Christmas to JK and to JK only

Imagine orphan Annie (if she was a consenting adult) and the Scrooge (who was younger and hotter) has a smut book. It would be this.

And personally i loved this…maybe my favorite ?


“Get on your knees and suck it like a grateful orphan.”💀


Oh and let’s not forget that he thought she started a mob of men following her cause they wanted his little orphan wife 💀💀

Well, that was….something.

It was crazy. There’s some weird adoption kink tossed in there to make things even more crazy.

Sex in front of the preacher and others.

A mob of horny men trying to get at the heroine?

And a hero who used to go to a “club” to use skanky females like dirty gym socks to relieve his balls into.

All of these elements stopped me from liking this book. It was just too cringe for me.

4.5 rounded up to 5.

I give the story on this one a four, there really wasn’t a whole lot to it after the beginning. The spice factor for me was a 5.

I’m into the daddy kink but if you’re not then this definitely isn’t for you. I also like that by the end Edison has been absolutely driven insane with paranoia that people are going to steal Blessing from him. It reminded me a bit of some of the books in her stalker series which I totally love so it’s no surprise I enjoyed that aspect.

One I’ll read again when I’m looking for some naughty spice.

Another cute and spicy novella, but make it Christmasy! Only Jess’s Kane can write MMCs that are both crazy and obsessed but also sweet cinnamon rolls. This was really cute! And cheesy, but come on, I know what I’m getting with Miss Kane. Edison Scrooge, a very wealthy and notoriously grumpy man, has just found out that he must marry by Christmas if he wishes to keep his inheritance, passed down from generations. He hosts a ball at his mansion, but can’t even look at all the women in attendance. Then, he spies a beggar at his front door and he’s immediately enraptured. She’s freezing and starving and he immediately helps her.

Blessing is trying to get money so that she can buy food for the children at the orphanage. The old caretaker died, so since she is the only adult, she stayed on to care for the children. The house has no heat, and she’s desperate to get back to the children, but she’s become a victim to the cold. When she comes to, she’s shocked that Mr. Scrooge wants to make her his wife. Like, yesterday. She wants nothing to do with marriage, doesn’t he know that she has responsibilities? She returns to the children and he follows her, vowing to give his entire inheritance to the children. He doesn’t think she will ever love a scoundrel like him, but he loves her and wants her to be his bride. How could she say no?

So, while this was super spicy and filled with dirty talk and action, it was also super sweet. Scrooge and Blessing have both been left or ignored by people their entire lives. Scrooge is so sweetly in love with Blessing, even though he doubts that he is lovable, he does everything he can to make life good for her and the children. So of course she falls in love with him? All in all, one of my JK faves.

Want to see more bookish things from me? Check out my Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfer...

In order to receive his great grandfather's inheritance, Edison Scrooge must marry before Christmas. While hosting a party to find his future wife, Blessing, a beggar comes to his door, frozen solid from the cold. Edison instantly falls in love with her and vows to make her his wife.

This was...not good. It may be the worst book I've read all year. There was an adoption/orphan/daddy kink, and I must say... I am not a fan. This man is 30 years old and basically kidnaps a just turned 18 year old to turn her into his own personal sex slave. This man was so unhinged, it was terrifying. The amount of times he forces himself on Blessing sexually, was so uncomfortable and his justification is just that she's too enticing, beautiful and hot to control himself... no thank you. He became so obsessed with her that when she would go out, she had a full security team, and when she would returned, he would interrogate her then give her "consequences" because people were looking at her...I also hated how naïve Blessing was... you're going to tell me she didn't know what an erection was, but she could perform all these things effortlessly the very first time she did them???? Also... what was that "learning to ride" scene... this bitch was spinning on his d!ck like she was in the exorcist, WHAT WAS THAT.
