Author: @kmixonauthor Book: The Demons of Hawthorn Manor
This is the first book I have read by author, K. M. Mixon. I can guarantee you that it will not be my last book. In fact, this book needs to come with a warning..." Once you start reading you will not be able to stop until the last word has been read!" Also, be prepared to have your heart ripped apart. I was so invested in this book and everyone that after reading I had to take some time to recover, which to be honest I don't think I will fully be 100% recovered! I can't wait to read K.M Mixon's next offering.
The men Bram, Eldric, and Elias are all so hot. Each one is different in their own ways and have their own demons and scars to fight. Yet, they all share one thing in common and that is their love for Seraphine. Seraphine is one very lucky woman to have these men in her life. If you asked me which of the three guys is my favorite, I would honestly have to tell you all of them.
Paranormal Romance✅ Reverse Harem✅ Dark Romance✅ Emotional Read✅
Plot 5 ✨ Spice 5🌶️
Plagued by demons from her past, Seraphine has set out to find a new place to call home. She keeps coming back to a small town in Maine, though she has no idea why. When she gets offered a job at Hawthorne industries she takes it, pacts up her beloved books and leaves her old town and the string off guys she keeps at arm's length behind. She instantly loves the small town and enjoys the fast pace of her new job.
When Seraphine is offered a promotion and a raise by her boss Bram Dickinson, she cannot turn it down. If only because it comes with room and board, and she needs somewhere to live. Her new job will be being the assistant to Eldric Hawthorne, the CEO of the company that lives in a rundown mansion and is a recluse. Only problem when she goes to report and move in, she is told that Mr. Hawthrone is not needed an assistant at this moment.
Seems like Mr. Hawthrone isn't the only one that doesn't want her there, his friend Elias doesn't want her in the mansion either. What has Seraphine signed herself up for? What mysteries hid inside these walls?
Why does Mr. Hawthrone require an NDA be signed to work for him? Why does the mansion feel so haunted, like someone is lurking in the corner? When Seraphine finds herself attracted to each, Eldric, Bram, and Elias will she have to choose? What demons are they all four hiding and can they heal each other?
Thank you, Thank you to the author who graciously gave me an ARC copy of this book. To say I loved this book is a understatement completely. Most reverse harem's are more about the spice but this story was so plot driven I forgot it was a reverse harem. I instantly loved Eldric from his first appearance and Bram, and Elias I fell in love slowly with them as well. This book will pull on your emotions as each character has a sad, or painful past that they are trying to get over. This book will keep you guessing what is going on and trying to predict the ending, which is what I want in a book. Even if you do not think fantasy, reverse harem, or dark romance is your jam you need to give this book a chance.
I absolutely fell in love with all of the characters….you ripped my heart out and stepped on it but I enjoyed it for the most part….totally destroyed 💔 can’t wait for the next part!
Ok, so this rating is hard to give. I loved the characters. Found myself feeling for them and laughing with them frequently. The story itself is beautiful and original. I was pleasantly surprised at the narrative choices. However I felt the story was too abrupt. The closeness of the characters, especially those as traumatized as they were was not earned. Their interactions were often to brief to warrant the soul searing love they all clearly felt. I feel the story lacked the depth and care to truly be a 4-star read for me (5 stars are few and far between for me. )
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶/5 The Demons of Hawthorne Manor is a dark paranormal reverse harem romance. Please check your trigger warnings before reading. The characters have tragic, traumatic, dark pasts so there are some events that are not for everyone.
I was engaged from the beginning, turning page by page wanting to continue reading without wanting it to end. The rollercoaster of emotions pulled at my heartstrings in a good way. I am so grateful to author K.M Mixon for allowing me to be an arc reader. I do not want to spoil anything but I had to reach out to her as soon as I finished reading (2am) to whine. My heart was not ready. Lol
The darkness, the healing, the twists and turns, the emotions, haunts-curses and all the spiceee!! Very sexy, smutty scenes.
What if there was a curse? The way to break this curse is impossible; it doesn't exist. Until she comes, she exists and can she be what they need to break the curse?
Seraphine is a woman who struggles with a dark past that haunts her mind. She leaves to a small town in Maine, wanting to start anew. A new place, a new job, new people.., she starts a job at Hawthorne Inc. Her boss Bram hires her for the front desk but later offers her a new position. To help with his brother Eldric. It's a live-in job which works great for Seraphine, she needs a place to stay at. Bram and Eldric’s friend Elias are not thrilled about having her so close to Eldric. He doesn’t leave the manor or allows anyone to see him. There is a reason for it all. He’s haunted by a dark past. But what happens when all three men begin to feel a connection to Seraphine and she to them. Things heat up quickly.
This book kept me so engaged, it was dark and broken in a beautiful way. The story of each character had me captivated. I loved every single one.
I recommend it wholeheartedly.
I received a free copy of this book directly from the author and I am voluntarily leaving a review.
Well this book was…unexpected. And this thing be spicy. Super spicy! This book should be read in the comfort of your own home. Do not read this at work while on your lunch break. Like…just don’t. This book, while unbelievably spicy and hot, was so plot- driven I forgot my surroundings.
Seraphine has just moved to Maine for a fresh start, she is hired on as a secretary at Hawthorne Inc. mystery and intrigue is afoot. She meets Mr Dickinson, the COO of the company. She is then straight away moved to be the assistant to the elusive and reclusive Mr Hawthorne. These 2 men along with their friend Elias take to Sera right away. And she to them.
This book kept me gripped from the very beginning. And I didn’t want to put it down! And that ending! Definitely not what I expected but I understood why. This book took me on a roller coaster ride.
➸Beauty and the beast vibez ➸Haunted mysterious mansion ➸Forced proximity ➸Workplace romance ➸Reverse Harem ➸Broken souls
The narration is so poetic, I LOVE IT. Characters are so charming, they stole my heart immediately!
Serafine - Bad ass, lovely soul seeking freedom from her mind. Eldric - The ghost of Hawthorne Manor, the beast. Bram - The charmer. Elias - The enigma, badboy.
They all had really shitty traumatic past experiences, found comfort and support in each other, it's so lovely!
That ending thoe, I'm struggling...
Overall, I really enjoyed this book, so so good, I was sold by beautiful description and detailing of their emotional connection, their selflessness and how they cherished each other.
Thanks to the amazing author for sending a free arc in exchange for an honest review! 💋
This book is a taboo paranormal dark RH romance. I was told it was an emotional read, and when you start it, there is a lot of discussion about past trauma in the form of abuse and death. I personally thought this was the emotional side of the story and thought I got through unscathed however, the last few chapters of this book turned that idea upside down.
This book is full of what the heck is going on, plot twist, three dominant male characters, family trauma, and delicious spice. I loved the way the characters, bonded and healed each other. And there’s plenty of plot and even a suppplot with supporting characters.
I will warn you, it may have you ready to throw the book at the wall but I promise if you read until the end it’s worth it.
If you’re looking for a quick spicy read with an emotional ending for spooky season, this book is for you. It’s available on kindle unlimited.
A full list of trigger warnings can be found on the authors website.
I’ve read this book twice and I loved it each time! It’s so easy to fall in love with the characters and her writing. I’m a huge fan of RH and she wrote this book perfectly! And don’t get me started on the men in her book. 😉 I also did NOT expect the ending but it was beautifully written and I couldn’t imagine it happening any differently. This novel is amazing and I highly recommend it. I can’t wait to read more of her books. Oh, and THE SPICE!!!! If you LOVE SPICE READ THIS BOOK!!! That is all.
I will honestly say that I haven't read a lot of reverse harem books. That being said, I was surprised at how intrigued I was with this one. It kept my attention and had me finishing this book in just a few days of receiving it. The story was captivating and held my attention throughout my entire read. I wasn't troubled by the average tropes that a lot of books fall victim to. There were no easy outs with this one. If you're looking for a book that's both thought provoking and so sexy you find yourself blushing even though you're reading it alone, pick this one up.

I had the honor of getting this book as ARC. This is the first book that I had read by Ms. K.M Mixon, and let me tell you... I was not disappointed. I fell in love with each character. My only regret was reading the end of the book at a child's birthday party. Lol. I did not expect the last few chapters to grip me the way they did. I highly recommend the book. Piece of advice, don't finish the book I'm public lol.
I’m a hot mess right now 🖤 it was a terrific book & it’s definitely up there on my favorites list from now on (which is not something I say much) I was laughing, saddened, mind blown at the turn of events & was crying like a baby until the very end—so good!!! 🌶🌶🌶 Spice was definitely there!!! It wasn’t a very long book (220 pages) but it had me wanting more & more…that ending was just what my heart needed 🖤 Do yourself a solid & go read it now!!!
the way KM Mixon builds a world will leave you in awe, the way she tells a story and brings you into the lives is otherworldly! you get to know the characters on another level and when it's over, you feel a piece of you is lost with it. The Demons Of Hawthorne Manor has so many plot twist and shows a love one can only dream of one day having. KM Mixon has become one of my favorite authors! such an amazing story!
I don't even know where to begin this review. The rollercoaster of emotions this book sent me on ... oh my God! I love why choose, and paranormal romance, and this book had the best of both. I can't say too much without giving away the twists, but trust me when I say read this book you will not be disappointed! K.M. Mixon is amazing at what she does, and I will read any and all books she puts out.
I love reverse harems! And this one was not a disappointment. I couldn't put this book down. The torment that the characters went thru and the love that blossomed from it was heart clenching. You can help but to fall in love with Sera and her demons. This book gives you it all. And it has been a long time since a book had tears rolling down my face! And don't forget about the spice!! OMG.
Amazing! This is a new author for me. And I feel in love. This book was amazing. It grabbed my attention and said let's go for a ride. Seraphine just moved to a new city. This book is the journey she has on healing her self from the past while saving the Hawthorne family. This book is a must read.
Read an ARC for this and I sped through it so quickly. Never have I ever read a paranormal love story with a mix of reverse harem but this did it for me!
And the spice!! My oh my... I was not ready for the spice!!
I was lucky enough to be gifted this as an arc by the author. It’s a beautiful read of personal demons and the relationships that can help fix them. The spice was amazing and the intrigue kept me wanting to keep turning the page.
I loved that this took no time to get to the good scenes. I really did love the plot twists and turns that the story provided. Sera was very much made for the Hawthorn Demons.
This book kept me on my toes the WHOLE time. I couldn’t even out into words how much I loved reading this book. It’s so captivating and detailed. Definitely gives you butterflies.
This book was a page turner for me that I never wanted it to end. I was on an emotional Rollercoaster in the best way!! I loved all the characters in this book and they will never be forgotten!!
Like most of us, Seraphine struggles with inner demons. Throughout this book, she’s able to finally deal with them, with the help of her men. And let me tell you…these men are 🔥. DoHM has just the right amounts of 🌶 and plot. I could not get enough of this story. The ending threw me for a MASSIVE loop though.
The Demons of Hawthorne House is a paranormal reverse harem romance. All the characters are broken by trauma and bear the scars from their pasts. Some of these characters' stories will not be for everyone.
This book grabbed you from page 1 and took you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions, incorporated some very spicy scenes and the story pulled you in and kept you reading. I received this book for a voluntary review and K.M Mixon hits it out of the park again.
Given the darkness of the characters, there was healing in the relationships and the zig zag of story haunted you and OMG! The smutty scenes require a towel.
Eldric is cursed, which impacts his brothers Bram and Elias but will she be able to break the curse of this band of brothers.
Seraphina is broken and struggles with the scars of her dark past (night terrors). She goes to Maine for a fresh start, new town, new job and hopefully new friends. Initially she is hired as a receptionist by Hawthorne Inc.but is given a promotion by her boss Bram to live at Hawthorne Manor and aid his brother Eldric and Seraphina jumps at the chance as she needs to find a place to stay.
Bram and Eldric’s close friend Elias isn’t happy about this and neither is Eldric. Ldric never leaves the manor or allows anyone to see him. Eldric is haunted by a dark past, however when Seraphina moves in,it’s clear that all the men have an attraction to her and spice is very fast moving and the characters grow stronger together.
The story has many twists and turns and I don't want to spoil this book for anyone but the characters and the story is well written and will require tissues at several points.
See book for trigger warnings and check them out before starting to read.
This book was my first dip into dark romance/reverse harem, so it was very different than my usual fantasy romance selections. It includes a list of content warnings at the beginning, so check those out before diving in.
I found the characters to be interesting and loved the different twists the plot took, I didn’t see them coming and was curious the entire read.
This has a Phantom of the Opera/Beauty and the Beast vibe to me, but with more male leads 😉. I think Elias was my favorite and the spicy scenes include ⛓ and are 🔥.
Although I’m still firmly a fantasy gal, I was so glad the author asked me to read her book and would recommend it to someone who is looking to try something different/spicy.
