Go ahead, pretty one. It only takes three times.
Say my name.
I’ll make you mine.

But once he meets her, her seductive looks and taunts lead him down a different path. After a night of playing one another, will he be able to kill her as he’d planned?

4,7 stars. Finally a good reading, after several average ones... Although, a short one, but it's well worth reading. Bloody Mary retelling. Damon is a demon hunter obsessed to kill the Bloody Mary demon. And finally, after several years in front of fake mirrors, he found the real one. What he didn't count was to be so attracted to "her". A lot of changing roles domination, it's a super hot story. Both fighting to be the one in control. But they only have one night, which of them survive? Can Damon trust Mary and save her? Can Mary trust Damon not to kill her?
4.5 ⭐ This was my second novella from Jack Whitney and it did not disappointed me at all
Erotica, smutty, dark and very spooky novella with lots of spice -and it had a plot a very good one.
Scarlet Mary is a demon trapped inside a mirror she is summoned by a professional demon hunter 😏. When she is summoned they play...alot😂 I loved this novella. Really wish it wasn't just novella instead little longer.
The epilogue was the best.😉
"Haveanly gods...Bless me, for I have sinned. Forgive me, for the night is dark, the light is gone and she is the scarlet glow leading me to dawn. Let my tongue lead her to salvation...let her taste feed my greed...for I am just a hungry boy, knelt before a Goddess. Bless me to do as she wishes. Bless this night... bless this feast. AMEN"-- I'M DEAD
I didn't expect it to be that good. This novella has great potential to be a book, like seriously, if the author decided to continue it, I would totally read it and definitely love it.
"We were the same, she and I. And I was devastated for her."
Scarlet Mary, a demon relegated to a mirror in an abandoned mansion is summoned by a proficient demon hunter.
Damon knows better than to let the demons play mind games. Despite this, he is bewitched by Mary.
This smexy take on the Bloody Mary story is the perfect October read with its spooky vibes and hottttt scenes. An unlikely duo, Damon and Mary will have you invested in their HEA!

🌿 BOOK REVIEW 🌿
Searching for a paranormal and smutty fast-paced novella that will have you hot and bothered all over? Look no further. Break the Glass is a fine mashup between a retelling of Bloody Mary and—in my fair and humble opinion—Supernatural. Now, I know Jack didn’t take any character inspiration from it but what with all the demon hunter storyline and Mary being a succubus how could I not be reminded of that series? Either way, it was incredible and very satisfying in all the ways that mattered.
I will say that I think it’s more of short story than a novella—at least that’s how I read it. Not that I counted the words, which is really the only difference between the two. ALAS. I loved it. I loved the connection and tension between Damon and Mary, the thriller component, the deal, everything. And whether it is or isn’t a short story or novella, I sure as hell—got it? Because Bloody Mary?—hope that Jack someday eventually maybe decides to expand the story. Because I am curious to read about their adventures and I think it really has the potential to be a longer book.
Anyways—short but sweet review. Dual narration from first person perspective. Smut heavy with a fascinating storyline with the potential to expand on it. Dark, demonic and depraved. What better novella for all of you Halloween loving hearts? Would for sure recommend.

Not me reading bloody Mary smut in december where Mary pegs and dommes.
Not going to lie. The one hottest paragraph of this book was
“Greedy boy,” I taunted. “Hasn’t anyone ever taught you manners?” “I have manners,” he said. “Then I expect you know to pray before you feast,” I replied. My head lifted, and I nodded toward the ground. “On your knees.”
He reached for my calf and began to unzip my boot. “Heavenly gods…” the boot slid off my leg as smooth as his voice. "Bless me, for I have sinned,” he said, moving to my other leg. “Forgive me, for the night is dark, the light is gone, and she is the scarlet glow leading me to dawn. Let my tongue lead her to salvation—” His first lick made me flinch “—let her taste feed my greed—” His tongue stroked my entire pussy before circling my clit again “—for I am just a hungry boy, knelt before a goddess.” He sucked my clit into his mouth, making me moan. “Bless me to do as she wishes,” he breathed. “Bless this night… Bless this feast… Amen.”
All hail the QUEEN 👸🏻 Jack Whitney. Is there anything she can’t write? Listen, that’s a rhetorical question. The answer is resounding No, anything she writes will be amazing.
As a reader please make sure you are checking all trigger and content warnings. This is a dark fantasy romance. Not every book is for everyone and that is ok.
This is a spicy AF, the smut is the plot, Halloween erotica novella. I am not giving anything away, you just gotta read it. Be warned that this novella may likely cause blushing, hot flashes, combusting underwear, and cause for extra hydration. Femme Dom, shadow play, breath play, BDSM…. Enough said.
Break the Glass is a short, erotic Novella with a kinky, spooky take on the Bloody Mary legend.
Mary has been trapped inside a mirror for decades and gets summoned by a demon hunter named Damon (best hunter name ever, lol). He wants to kill her, but things take a smutty twist...
I think your enjoyment of this will be heavily influenced by whether you like the mentioned kinks, or not. It wasn't all my cup of tea, but I still enjoyed Jack Whitney's writing.
So if you're looking for a quick erotic story with creepy vibes, this might be for you!

This was more like a short story rather than a Novella. But, this ARC read was one of my favorites from Jack Whitney so far! I absolutely loved the spin she made on Bloody Mary…I’m sure we have all heard different versions growing up of this Urban Myth. I thought her execution was great! I thoroughly enjoyed it and actually wished this was sort of set up in a book full of short-stories with different myths/legends. I wanted more. It was fun, sexy, imaginative, and entertaining.
Break the glass is a brilliant example of a novella done right. A short read that didn't feel short at all. On the contrary, it was a wild, fulfilling ride. It promises spice and creepiness and totally delivers.
The writing was great and brought to life the horror elements as well as the chemistry between the characters. The world was built adequately, and the creepy atmosphere sucked me in from the first page.
For an enemies-to-lovers short read, the characters' journey from hate to lust to full-blown passion was narrated perfectly. I really enjoyed them both. I love female villains, so Mary was such a treat. She is the epitome of badassery. Considering that Damon gives off savage energy, these two make one hell of a couple and I wouldn't object to reading more of them.
Did I like it? Sure did. Would I read it again? A very creepy yes.
I am obsessed with this Halloween/spooky season, Bloody Mary themed novella!! Jack Whitney never fails to bring the spice!!
Scarlet Mary is trapped in a mirror and can only be released if her name is spoken three times. But when it’s been spoken in the past, blood and terror are left in her wake, until she’s forced back into the mirror at daybreak. But when Damon, a demon hunter, finds the mirror and releases her, things go a little differently than before. His original mission to rid the world of her terror turns into a night of demonic passion.
Make sure to read the trigger warnings, as this novella may not be suitable for everyone. It is recommended for readers 18+ because of its darker nature and erotic themes.

I loved this! Perfect to get into the Halloween spirit. Damon is a demon hunter who finally found the mirror that keeps Mary trapped. He releases her to kill her, but he can’t help but have a little kinky fun with her first. But she is the one who tames him. He’s dominant in nature but he surrenders so beautifully to her.
Jack Whitney can set the scene and tell a story so beautifully in only 70 pages. That is a talent. This is mostly smut but there’s a real story as well. And I will never stop reading these holiday themed novellas. Mary can use me as a doormat and I would say “thank you ma’am” I love powerful female main characters and she is so powerful. Brings Damon to his knees, literally, makes him beg, literally. I loved Damon as well. He does so well in keeping up with her and surrenders to her. That is a man who is not insecure! No weak fragile male ego here.
Please check trigger warnings before starting any book
Thank you as always Jack for the opportunity to read and early copy of this novella. It’s release day and waited to post my review today in honor of that.
I always love the books jack releases. This short novella was no different. It’s a take on Bloody Mary with some smutty goodness mixed in 🥵
Damon’s original mission was to summon Mary from her mirror and then end her right then and there. Obviously Mary being the badass that she is, definitely didn’t let that happen 😏 I quite enjoyed their little banter and watching them fight for dominance with each other. Honestly I couldn’t figure out if I wanted to be Mary or Damon. Both were just equally delicious and I wanted more of them. Mary’s dirty talk was so hot 😩 I love dominant women who take charge and take what they want.
I also liked the tiny little details we got of Damon and Mary’s past lives when they were talking about the scars they had on their body. These two were definitely made for each other and I enjoyed getting a peek into their lives together in the epilogue 🤩
"Let my tongue lead her to salvation. Let her taste feed my greed. For I am just a hungry boy, knelt before a goddess. Bless me to do as she wishes… this night… Bless this feast… Amen."
A Bloody Mary retelling aka Paranormal romance. Demon VS Demon Hunter
Damon is a demon hunter. He will scavenger around the world to get rid of them all. There is one in particular that many previous hunters seem to fail to kill it or should I say her. He is obsessed in finding her. But when he comes face to face to Scarlet Mary, he knew he was a goner. He never expected to be entranced by her beauty and her sexual advance are not denied… for the first time, he will get to know what it’s like to be submissive:
"I am the demon your body craves, the goddess of your nightmares, the chase your mind desires. I am the darkest want of your little black heart. No other can compare to this, to what I can do to you…”
