Unholy Night
Easton Radleigh hates Christmas…
When she gets dumped right before the holidays, it feels like the universe reminding her that love only exists in the books she writes.
With a deadline looming, Easton reserves a room at a quaint bed and breakfast—determined to finish her book and forget all about her failed relationships.
But when she arrives on Christmas Eve, a winter storm takes a turn for the worst and she finds herself trapped inside with her worst nightmare—four hot as hell innkeepers who want to service more than just her room.
Roman, Vance, Penn, and Zander are not nice guys…
It was supposed to be a quick job. Torture the mark, find the money, and get out before sunrise. Now they were snowed in for the weekend, pretending to run the joint, while the real innkeeper was tied up in the basement.
And just when they thought the night couldn’t get worse, a beautiful bombshell struts in with an attitude colder than the North Pole. A sexy distraction that could ruin everything.
But these bad boys always get what they want, and before the weekend is over, the snow won’t be the only thing that’s melting.

Easton, a well known author, is dumped, so, to escape the social media, she goes to a B&B in a small town, for Christmas.
When she gets there, there are four handsome men in the B&B, and she's the only guest.
She's rude, and they want to put her in line.
She's also gorgeous, so they have problems in letting her go.
Roman, Vance, Penn, and Zander are very different, but very dangerous, as Easton is going to find out...

It's a (very) mini Den of Vipers 😂 This book was fun! If you want plot, this ain't it (i'd take a whole book on Roman and Vance though 🔥). Was this realistic? No. Was it a little cringey at times? Yes. Did I care? No 🖤

“There ain’t nothing holy about what we just did, darlin’. But I never considered myself a holy man.”
The true definition of a hot holiday novella that you won’t want to put down!
✨Holiday Novella
✨Dark Romance
✨Why Choose
Easton is in desperate need to finish her book, so she takes a trip to the middle of nowhere at a bed and breakfast. When she arrives, she meets Roman, Penn, Zander, and Vance—all sexy, lumberjack looking alpha-males who are in the middle of finishing out a job they were assigned. Easton isn’t one to cave into these type of men, but something about them is very convincing and she discovers herself in a whole new light.
If you’re looking for a hot, spicy novella to help you reach your reading goals, then look no further. I finished this book in one sitting since it’s only 80 pages, and I flew through it. I loved the banter between all of the main characters. I loved how you were able to get a feel of each of their personalities even in just a short amount of time. The writing was well done and descriptive enough to make it seem like I was really there. For such a short story, there was still a good amount of plot too. Honestly, I didn’t want this story to end. I would’ve enjoyed this just as much if it were longer. I loved it!

I love 4 tattooed men who do bad things to bad men who deserve it.

As he stepped inside my room, he kicked the door shut behind him. “I don’t know what kinds of schmucks you’re used to dealing with, but I ain’t the one, sweetheart. We made this for you, and you’re going to fucking eat all of it.”
This is a story (well kind of) of pure smut. A ridiculous and OTT smutty smut fest.
Easton is a famous romance author and needs some change of scenery in order to finish her deadlines. After being dumped by her last boyfriend she is in no mood for the holidays.
Vance, Roman, Zander and Penn are bad guys after and without going in too deep they happen to be at the very same bed and breakfast for not so shiny and bright reasons.
Queue the chance to thaw out the ice princess 😉 go into this with an open mind, lots of unrealistic situations and maybe to get yourself a little smut entertainment.

I really enjoyed this book, I went in to this book knowing that it was spice and smut 🌶️ but the plot that is there is fleshed out and easy to follow. As alway and myself wanting move of Easton and her boys and would love another book but the book delivers everything it had hoped to and more.
It is a fun Christmas read and was nice to follow a fmc that was snarky and kind-of arrogant (personable than overly likeable).
I binged this book in one sit down and it was hot 🥵🌶️

⚠️Read TWs BEFORE reading⚠️
What did I just read!? This was way different than I thought it was going to be. I mean, this went completely sideways for me. I was finding myself both cringing and grimacing at things said and done between/to characters... I won't be looking at ice cream the same for a very long time. Or spoons... I had a huge problem with the fact that this woman didn't do any form of cleaning up after ANY of her encounters with the guys in this and still put on fresh clothes and continued being stuffed.
Pretty much the plot is: woman leaves the big city to go to a small city during xmas time. She checks in at a super holiday fueled inn, where she meets these "lumberjack" type men who are, of course, large and muscles, and the is dubbed "ice queen." Somehow, their magical penises break her curse of being a frigid bitch so seemingly, no reason. Then there was the side story... Honestly, I would have rather had more of this because it was very entertaining.

BUT LET ME JUST YELL BECAUSE THIS IS TOP TIER 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ . I’m not super big into holiday romances or themed books but let me just tell you, AHHHHH.

Four BUILT daddies?? YES PLEASE!
Also, I personally really enjoyed the humor in this book. This book had me laughing so hard I cried but also making me 🤤🤤🤤.
Overall Unholy Night is a great, guilty-pleasure novella that has superb 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ and an FMC with a witchy with a B attitude!

Heat: 3.5/5
Since this is a novella, things move at breakneck speed, but I am not complaining.
We have a tired, love-unlucky writer, who flies to some tiny inn during Christmas, only to get snowed in with four, hot, strapping men. Little does she know, they have a more nefarious purpose but things heat up quickly as attractions take hold and walls start melting.
Loved this spicy novella. I think the author did a great job introducing all the characters and their personalities with a hint of plot. The spice was GREAT, and I honestly wanted the story to keep going! Hope we meet this group again, loved them all!

This was a shorty and spicy dark romance novella about Easton who is an author and just needed to get away from the press to finish her romance novel. She gets to her air b&b to find four smoking hot bad boys, Vance, Penn, Roman, and Zander who give her the best night of her life 🥵😉But what she’s definitely not expecting is what she finds in the basement. This book definitely left me in a puddle and in suspense. I really enjoyed this book 💕

What more could you want for Christmas than four smokin’ lumberjacks with southern charm and filthy mouths? Sarcastic, down on love romance writer Easton thought she booked a weekend of solitude in the mountains away from people, well surprise! She’s stuck in the middle of nowhere with these hot hitmen who love nothing more than to help her out of her slump 😉
Fav quote:
“Esteemed romance author, Easton Radleigh turns into a massive slut over the weekend. Christmas came and so did she.”

A filthy Christmas miracle
What a way to kick off my December tbr then diving into a filthy little why choose by one of my favourite authors. Roman, Zander, Vance and Penn are four delicious hunky Christmas gifts all wrapped up in sin for one sassy romance writer. The books I could write if I had those 4 for inspiration 🥵

“There was no way in reindeer hell that any of these f*ckboy-looking specimens were harmless. Not a chance.… “Can I get a menu, please, or do you all have an Only Fans meeting you need to get to?”
“My belly knotted as I looked up to see the crazed look in his eyes, the menacing snarl on his lips. “Please…”
“Are you begging me to stop or to keep going… I’m going to f*ck you either way, darlin’, but I want to hear you beg. No matter what it’s for.””
First of all, I f*cking loved this dark and SPICY Christmas novella! Easton is such a fiesty, foul mouthed FMC, her quick comebacks and internal thoughts had me cackling. It’s a short read so I don’t want to spoil anything, but *cue scandalous music* if you like dark, depraved, dangerous men who like to share… you won’t regret picking this up.
Thank you M. Violet for this ARC in exchange for an honest review. This story was so much fun, they deserve a full length novel!

I love all things M.Violet. this book was a great short spicy holiday novella. What girl wouldn’t love to be trapped in a bed-and-breakfast with four sexy hunky to the gods men. After she loosened up, boy did she let loose. Highly recommend!

wow
Quick easy read. I didn’t see that ending coming from a mile away either! This was brilliantly written, I was sucked in and left wanting to know what happens next, because what happens in Cabo stays in Cabo right!

Spicy short why choose novella where a famous author plans to get away for the holidays after a bad breakup, only to be stuck with four hot men who may, or may not be, torturing a man in the basement of the air bnb.
Honestly, that is about it. It was fun, short, spicy, and entertaining banter between the MC's. Did I expect much? No. I would say the same if you plan to pick this book up.

Hope we get more of Easton and her guys in the future.

The book is very spicy, but there was a lack of individuality for the MMCs. They seemed to be the same guy with different names. I know the book was short, but it could have used more development of the men.

He slid his thumb across my lips again. “I can do things to you that will make you feel alive again… Would you like that, sweetheart? Hmm? Tell me you don’t want me to ease that ache between your legs right now, and I’ll walk away. Look me in the eyes and tell me.” Zander, Ch. 5

Spice: 4/5 🌶️
Whew, snowstorm where? The heat in this novella sure melted everything to a puddle!
Easton, our romance author FMC, leaves for an inn on Christmas Eve to work on her new book expecting to be greeted by a sweet cat lady. Definitely not four lumberjack type hotties with a secret in the basement.
This was high heat and fast paced, and it hit the spot perfectly. I would have loved for it to be a bit longer so that Easton’s attitude change didn’t seem so abrupt.
The men, Roman, Penn, Zander and Vance, were just delicious with enough distinctive personalities befitting the length of this book.
