This Christmas put Naughty Santa Daddy under your tree and read about two couples who will find love this holiday season!

 

-Goliath and Alessandra-

A few minutes is all it takes to change the course of your life, forever.

Goliath spent the last seven years in prison, and now the only thing he's sure about is the Hell's Jokers MC is where he belongs.

Alessandra has ties to the mafia and has done her best to distance herself from the life, but somehow, it always seems to find her.

When the two of them are thrust into chaos together, they choose to ride it out in the steamiest way possible. Neither of them believes they'll see each other again, but fate has a unique way of showing up in the least expected times. This is one holiday Santa will claim his elf, no matter if it lands him on the naughty list or not. 

 

-Massimo and Hadley-

What happens when dark and dangerous walks into a cheery Christmas diner? If only this was some random joke like a mobster walked into a bar… 

Massimo Costa is the kind of man everyone fears. As head of the Uccello organization, his ruthless demeanor serves him well. 

Hadley Bernard knows how to serve with a smile. The more Massimo returns to the diner she works at without ordering anything but coffee, the more determined she is to win him over to something more. 

Two strangers. One connection. The more he watches, the more he can't resist having her for himself. As danger closes in, their pasts collide, and the truth comes out. Together, they learn what life, love, and the true meaning of Christmas means to them.

30 Best Selling Authors joined together by Sapphire Knight pen two stories. I loved the concept, each author pens a chapter. I was super excited to read the book especially because many of these authors featured I have never read. Plus, getting two books. For the most part I enjoyed the read and would recommend it- a suspense filled motorcycle club and mafia read, yes please. Personally I enjoyed Massimo and Hadley’s story more. I had a hard time connecting with Goliath and Alessandra’s story. Each story is on from the start. The attraction is instant. The suspense is real. The men are dominant and possessive. The females are strong and independent. The premise of the stories are engaging.

Goliath and Alessandra story starts off a bang, literally. Circumstances throw them together at a holiday fundraiser, finding out the truth keeps them that way. Alessandra has ties to the mafia which she has been trying to leave behind with a move and name change. Someone is looking for her and Goliath is her best bet for protection.

Massimo is the head of the Uccello organization and he has a trader in his midst. While tracking information he finds Hadley working at a local diner. He returns day after day searching for truths. Until Hadley’s past comes knocking on her door. Circumstances throw them together during the holidays. Massimo is determined to find the truth, keep Hadley protected and ultimately to claim her as his own.

Naughty Santa Daddy I can’t say enough about it hits the ground running from page one. Goliath and Alex world changed when he was at the hospital to play Santa & she was volunteering as an elf for the law office she was interning for the school year. When Alex recognized Goliath from the highway interaction she smiled and was ready to flirt & be his elf for the event when bullets started to fly & she pulled him down & they made their way to the parking garage. They had a heated moment while hiding in the back of a travel trailer; when an announcement was made for survivors to make their way into the hospital Goliath made sure Alex got to safety & told her he lost his wallet & would meet her inside. He had to get out far away from the police for he was still on probation. Alex had a feeling he was avoiding being questioned by the police she was bummed that she would never see him again but she thought she would always have sexy dreams. They were soon brought back together Goliath was asked by her cousins to rescue her & keep her safe, he knew he was not only going to protect her but never let her go. Naughty Santa Daddy is hot full of danger, violence, dark humor & sexy heat. What also makes this story amazing that each chapter is written by a different author & the story line never misses a beat. Part two is just as good as Part one. I have only read two other books written in this manor & they hit it out of the park & so did this group of authors. This would be the perfect read for your Christmas vacation; you’re going to need uninterrupted time because once you start reading your not going to want to put it down until you reach the END! Congratulations to all the authors & Thank you to Roux Cantrell for giving me the opportunity to read the ARC & leaving a Review.

What I liked about Goliath’s and Alessandra’s story
1. I thought Goliath’s and Alex’s story had such a fun meet cute. I loved how she saved him first! They ended up saving each other several times, but the fact that she did it first was badass!

2. I love a good age gap (22 FMC x 41 MMC).

3. I loved the group in the MC, especially Drake (the funny young one) and Miller (the president and Goliath’s longtime friend).

4. I loved how much Alex’s dad, the head of a mafia family, was actually very sweet and fairly supportive of her. He jumped on a plane as soon as something happened with her and he never wanted to “clip her wings”. I love seeing the soft side of ruthless men, and he definitely had a soft side for his daughter.

5. Similarly, I loved Goliath’s Granny and how she was so blunt, but also always there for him. She was definitely a comedic relief in this story.

What I liked about Massimo’s and Hadley’s story
1. I love single dad romances, but I especially loved that this one had a darker edge to it with the whole captor/captive and sleep-with-me-and-I’ll-protect-you aspects.

2. I loved how genuinely good of a person Hadley was. She had bumped around foster care systems and didn’t have much to her name, but she was willing to help out most people if it was within her means.

3. I loved the spicy times in this one especially!

4. I loved the mystery component that ran throughout this one. While it was predictable (to a degree), it was a good mystery to run in the story.

Why it wasn’t a 5-star read for me:
Collaboration books are always hard to review, especially when there are so many authors. Some writing styles you personally click with, while others may not be your preference. Because of this, some chapters may feel smooth while others feel a bit jarring. The hardest part for me is I felt I would be jiving with the pace and the couple and then something small would make the characters seem like totally different people, and then each subsequent chapter has to build upon that new development.

Thank you to D. Vessa for the opportunity to read this book. The thoughts and opinions expressed above are honest and my own.

Naughty Santa Daddy
A Holiday Anthology
MMM25 Authors

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Part 1
Goliath and Alessandra
I was not expecting this story. These ladies out did themselves with this one. It was funny, page turning but kept you on your toes with the plot twists these authors are known for. I never would have thought of turning a mafia/mc book into a hallmark holiday romcom but they did and I am all for it.

Goliath is your typical biker but he has a soft spot for grandmother and she is great, we need more of her. He also has a soft spot for his elf that he meets in traffic. As luck would have it they meet in dire circumstances again. Watching him go from caveman to understanding his woman isn’t fragile was nice. His Grandmother was a force and the coolest one ever.

Alessandra is not a typical mafia princess and heir. She doesn’t like what her family does and the backlash on innocent people. Childhood trauma can change your outlook and the course of your life. But all it takes is betrayal to change everything you thought you knew.

I really enjoyed this book, I really didn’t see that betrayal coming and when it happened it floored me. I am usually pretty good at figuring out who is behind it. Excellent read.

Part 2
Massimo and Hadley
So I really wasn’t expecting that story either, but wow. These authors are amazing. Again the plot twists are mind blowing. I am not a huge fan of age gap books, I have read some and other than a brief mention of it a couple of times it's not a main focus. This was well written.

Massimo is hardened from losing people close to him and leading the mafia family. His softness for his son shows he has some humanity left in him. Watching him fight his feelings for Hadley is entertaining, but to him she means to end to find who has betrayed him.

Hadley, having grown up in the system, has had a tragic past. Her past sends her life on a collision course straight into Massimo. But she faces her trauma like a queen. While most get lost in their trauma, she didn’t.

The authors did a good job bringing real world issues that we should be talking about more. I would like to read more of these two worlds from the amazing authors.

The Naughty Santa Daddy Anthology is written by a group of amazing authors (too many to name!) who are attending the MMM25 book signing event. When I got the book and saw how it was written I was taken aback and instantly skeptical about how good of a read it would be. Usually, anthologies have small stories written by each author involved right? Well, not this one. Each of the authors involved has written a chapter of a continous story and there are two stories in this book. I've already read most of the authors in this book and some have really different writing styles so that's why I was skeptical about how well it would be. I can say by the end I was pleasantly surprised by how well the story continuously flowed and you would think it was written by a single author not twenty-nine of them.
The first story is Braxton and Alessandra and gives us an MC/Mafia plot. This was the story I liked the best. A chance meeting by being forced to Volunteer as a Santa and elf set off a chain of events that had me laughing, crying, getting mad, and hot, I must say. If this story continued I would be reading it for sure.
The second story is Massimo and Hadley in a mafia single-dad damsel in distress plot. This story was darker and a bit more in-depth with the backstory. Hadley is a child trafficking victim who has done everything to forget her past horrors until Massimo finds her with her past right behind him. Hadley was my favorite character in this book. She's just the type of character you root for and aren't surprised when the nice sweet girl doesn't need a man to take care of business because she can do it herself.
Overall I gave this a 5-star rating and a 4-spicy rating. I applaud all the authors who put these amazing stories together for us to read. It's the perfect Christmas season book for us readers this year.
*I received this book for free. I voluntarily gave an honest review.*

Getting two stories in one book is a Christmas present in itself. Both books grip your attention from the first page. Each story takes you on a journey of mayhem, self discovery, love and lots of surprises. The writing is superb and flows from one chapter to the next. The editing was on point.

Part 1 - Goliath and Alessandra meet under violent circumstances with some heated one on one time. Goliath spent the last 7 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit. A couple of weeks after being released is when he meets Alessandra (Alex). Alex is a strong independent woman who is trying to distance herself from her family name. One steamy encounter leaves them both thinking about each other. Dangerous circumstances bring them together again and neither is willing to let go of the other. This book checks so many boxes and it doesn’t disappoint. Now I need to know if this is the start of a new series as so many characters have me wanting more.

Part 2 - Massimo has been coming into the diner where Hadley works for months. Hadley’s determined to get Massimo to try something other than coffee. What Hadley doesn’t know is that Massimo only comes into the diner because he thinks Hadley is the key to finding the traitor in his organization. Hadley has had a rough life as she grew up in the foster system. As the book progresses Hadley and Massimo’s feelings for each other begin to grow and Hadley finds herself caring deeply for Massimo’s six year old son, Amos. Will Massimo, Hadley and Amos become the family they wish for, read to find out.

Thank you to Sapphire Knight for the ARC of Naughty Santa Daddy.

When I heard a lot of authors that I love came together to write two stories in this book I jumped on being able to read it.

These two stories are full length stories full of festive and suspenseful events that each feature a naughty Santa daddy! These stories grab the reader from the start and it’s something you’re unable to put down!

Each story has a man who lives on the dark side of life and a woman who is in danger somehow.

Even though each chapter was written by a different author, the story flowed perfectly and left readers captivated.

The first story follows Alex and Goliath after a chance meeting at a hospital. Their lives change after bullets go flying as they’re supposed to volunteer as Santa and an elf. Tension, drama, danger and spice ensue which leads to the perfect story.

The second story follows Massimo and Hadley. They meet in the diner Hadley works at and Massimo sweeps her away after she’s killed a patron who pulled a knife on her. Drama ensues and secrets are revealed leading to the recipe for a story that keeps you hooked with every flip of the page!

This book is a perfect read to get one into the Christmas spirit. Crave out time to read it uninterrupted because you’ll be hooked from start to finish! Kudos to all the authors who participated in this work because you guys hit it out of the park!

NAUGHTY SANTA DADDY by Sapphire Knight pub 12/5/24, delivered12/7/24
Goliath & Alex

She was late getting to her hospital job when the MC of Santas dressed bikers rode in the parking lot. She had no time to flirt with the one who drew her before she saw the danger and drew him away. The beginning of their story of love and danger--if they lived to experience it.

He'd just come home from seven years! He would visit his only blood family after the club entertained as Santas. That is until the shooting started and he and the beauty went to hide.

She was trying to escape the mafia world she'd grown up in only to face a similar life.

I loved their insta-love and the strength they shared and displayed. Amazing characters, sizzling love, loyalty, and unexpected enemies will keep you reading non-stop. Enjoy and on to the next book.

BOOK 2
Massimo & Hadly + Amos

She worked at the diner where he drank coffee. That's it--drank coffee. It was a challenge to get him to want more. She didn't understand his life but his son was adorable. Her youth has been spent in the system. She didn't want the little boy to suffer the same fate. Little did she know what he wanted from her. Did she even have the information he desired?

These two great stories are not to be missed.

Part one:
You almost wouldn't know most chapters were written by a different author, I only founda couple that didn't quite fit with what was going on/had happened.
Honestly I expected more, and found, myself falling in love with both characters and plot, just like I would with a 'normal' book.
I hope this becomes a regular yearly thing as I would love seeing them again as there's so much that must of gone down with the aftermath of 'event' (don't want to spoil) and the merging of two worlds.
In saying that if you're not a detailed focused reader you'll just enjoy the brief story.

Part two:
I enjoyed this just as much as the first, if not more so.
Even though I have neither, something about children and animals in books make them that tiny bit more special, and even more intense if there's danger.
Like the previous part, it was almost hard to tell it was written by multiple authors, bar a few chapters that didn't show the same care.

I definitely recommend that you pick up this amazing book.

Naughty Santa Daddy by various authors is the unusual series of two different stories. Each story is written by a variety of authors, each author writing one of the chapters. You would think the continuity of the stories would suffer since there are so many authors involved in the creation. But, that doesn’t happen with these stories!!! The flow is smooth and seamless!!

First is the story of Goliath and Alessandra (Alex). She has a colorful past that she’s trying to distance herself from. He’s dealing with his own issues from the past. They meet up when they volunteer to greet children as Santa and his elf. They are so naughty!!!

Next, is the story of Massimo and Hadley. She’s a server at a diner…He’s a frequent customer, ordering just coffee. But, things get pretty heated and dangerous for them both!!
These stories were so romantic and festive! Great reads!

“Naughty Santa Daddy” is a sizzling and unique holiday anthology that blends romance, danger, and holiday cheer. Featuring interconnected stories about two captivating couples—Goliath and Alessandra, and Massimo and Hadley—this anthology offers a fresh take on storytelling, with each chapter written by a different author.

Goliath and Alessandra’s steamy romance unfolds amidst the chaos of his biker world and her mafia ties, while Massimo and Hadley’s love story explores the softer side of a feared mob boss finding warmth in a cheerful diner. The anthology’s collaborative structure gives readers a cohesive yet creatively diverse experience, making it a standout addition to holiday romance collections. Perfect for fans of steamy, action-packed romances with a festive twist!

Part 1
Goliath and Alessandra (Alex)
We hit the ground running with this one! MC and Mafia shouldn't work, but it does. Goliath is just getting his life back together, but Alex is about to throw a wrench in his plans. Alex was someone he didn't know he needed, but one taste just wasn't enough. The hilarious Christmas banter and steamy scenes has this a must read for my mafia lover friends!

Part 2
Massimo and Hadley
He might be one step ahead of her, but he never planned on giving her his heart. You'll be on the edge trying to find out who is really after Hadley and what secrets need to be uncovered.

I love how unique this entire book was with each author writing a chapter. Everything flowed and I seriously want more.

Naughty Santa Daddy🎅🎄

Naughty Santa Daddy is two stories written by multiple authors and I loved it❣️ The concept of this was slightly different to any anthology I’ve read before. Most anthologies have a story per author, this one is unique in that each chapter of the two stories is written by a different author. It gave me an opportunity to also read authors I hadn’t before.

Both stories were amazing, funny and exactly what one would expect of MC and Mafia. The characters too were fantastic and I almost wish there was another story, I loved it THAT MUCH😍

I received an advanced copy and willingly leave my honest review❤️

This was an amazing page turner, and it was a great author collab so need more of these and there was two powerful couples Goliath and Alessandra & Massimo and Hadley. Goliath & Alessandra are MC & Mafia but they both end up together after he comes out of prison, they are thrust together but it isn't in a bad way because now she has a naughty Santa under her tree, and he has a sexy elf. Massimo & Hadley are strangely and strongly connected from the time he walks into the cafe for coffee he is dangerous but that only adds to the appeal and attraction for Hadley, after he keeps repeating visiting the cafe she sets out to get what she wants, Christmas & A little Danger rolled into an awesome story.

Absolutely loved these two stories! And these authors coming together to make it is just amazing!
Goliath and Alex have a little meet cute on the highway, then later at the hospital but things take a turn. Her identity is revealed and Goliath must protect the woman who will not leave his mind. Betrayal on both sides bring things to head faster than either thought.

Massimo and Hadley is just as amazing as Goliath and Alex. Hadley is trying to hide, Massimo knows most of it but not all. He helps her out and takes her away.. to keep her, maybe?

Both stories are great! An awesome Christmas read!!

What an amazing collection of authors who have gotten together to give us readers two outstanding Christmas time reads under one cover. A different author took a chapter and I can’t express how amazing both storylines flowed from start to finish. One is a biker, santa, christmas time romance and the other a mafia romance. Both are full of action, alpha handsome men, sexy women and hot romance. Not to mention, suspense, dangers and so much more. This is a great read that I highly recommend. Great for cold holiday nights, plane rides for holiday locations or to be honest any old time.

Grab this one up asap, you’ll be happy you did.

ARC review-spoilers!






Story 1 was Alex and Goliath! Action packed with instant heat! Granny was hilarious and definitely a great asset to the story! Lots of family bonds and expectations even if in the non traditional form. Most importantly a HEA!

Story 2 was Mossimo and Hadley. What Mossimo thought of as a “job” to get to the bottom quickly turned into a whirlwind story with a little bit of vengeance and alot of spice.

I didn’t love story 2 as much as 1 but both were fun cute little reads and! Enough to keep you interested but not drug out!

Having different author's pen each chapter is pretty interesting. I did get lost in a couple of the transitions, but still enjoyed the book.
While the MC Biker and the Head of a Mafia family are strong, dangerous characters, they have nothing on their women.
While Braxton and Alex's story was pretty straight forward, I am still a bit confused as to why Mass was watching Hadley and why people were after her. The ending was a bit off as well.
Don't get me wrong the story was still entertaining.

Consider the two stories well worth my time and $$

I loved Alex and Goliath, its not the typical mafia story. She has wings and before he realises it, he tries to clip them in an attempt to protect her. Little realising shes more than strong enougj tonprotect them both.



With Hadley and Massimo, I wasnt as impressed, the constant underlaying story of Hadleys background was draggesnout too long. Then final outcome wasnt what I imagined. I thought she may have been a rival missing mafisio family princess... not so. I cant imagine that Hadley was the danger Massimo indictacted at the start of their story.

Two steamy and suspense-filled Christmas stories that will grab your attention right from the start. I loved how seamlessly the chapters flowed even though a different author wrote each chapter. Both stories deal with men who live on the dark side of life and women who are in danger in one way or another. Each story has tension, angst, danger and spice that will have you unable to put them down.

Two stories in one book. This one leaves you on the edge of your seat during both stories. However I will say that the second one was my favorite of the two.

These are dark romances, so if you have any trigger warnings, it’s likely not for you. The layout of this story is unique in that each author wrote their own chapter, and it was so fun to see how things played out. With their little cliffhangers at the end of chapters at times.

I enjoyed it and would recommend.

Really enjoyed getting to ARC read this Holiday Anthology written by 30 amazing authors from the MMM25 book event in 2025!

This was my first time reading an anothology and it was so neat to read!

It is amazing how so many authors can come together and write something just in time for the holiday!

If you are looking for a spicy holiday romance, this is one to have on the list!

Thank you Sapphire Knight for the opportunity!!

Absolutely loved the two stories in the book. Loved how each author had a chapter to write, it blended so well not sure I would have noticed there were different authors per chapter. Both of these reads were amazing Christmas reads, even though I'm not a huge Christmas story person, these were just perfect. Highly recommended

The writing and pacing it was done very well. It flowed nicely from start to finish. The action, twists, danger, suspense and intrigue made this one hell of a read.

I really enjoyed the unique concept behind the two stories in this anthology - not only did each author write a singular chapter (and the voice flowed well between each chapter) but we also got a blend of the mafia world and the mc world...super unique.

Bot stories were great - two different levels of dark/gritty so really something for everyone.

Glad I gave this anthology a read!

Loved this anthology. With all the authors involved interconnecting the stories and couples was amazing. Each chapter was written by a different author and they didn't disappoint. Great collaboration. Steamy, action packed with a holiday/Santa twist. Have to admit my fav couple was Mass & Hadley.
