This is the darkest of any of Serena Pier’s books I’ve ever read and I have to say–I like her style.🎄Age Gap🎄Insta Lust🎄Dark Romance🎄Christmas NovellaMorgan, the FMC, appears to be the only person in her family with critical thinking skills(can relate). When it gets to be too much on Christmas eve she goes to a bar for a break. There she meets Piotr and they hit it off. I won't spoil the rest, but there is a reason it’s labeled as a dark romance.I wish this book was a little longer as I would have enjoyed watching their relationship evolve in addition to seeing how both their businesses play into it.

Morgan, FMC, is going through what majority of us face during the holidays…. that is, family drama. Trying to get a break and find inner peace, she stumbles into a bar to find a secretive man that could be her way of catching a break and of course, a one night stand.This book is VERY spicy! If you enjoy secretive, bad guy, large age gaps, dark romance, and smut, this book is for you!Notes:I do wish there was a little more plot to the novella, and had more of an ending with the characters but it was overall great read and perfect for the dark romance lovers during the Christmas season!Favorite Quote“You’re my baby girl. I want you to be. Tonight. Tomorrow. For as long as you like.”Easy to read: 5/5Plot: 3/5Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️Overall rating: 4/5

This was the perfect dark and spicy Christmas read to get me in the holiday mood. Morgan and Piotr promised each other only one night, but their connection was too intense to walk away from. The chemistry was explosive, the heat off the charts, and seeing familiar faces from previous books made it even better. It was steamy, emotional, and everything I wanted in a quick, sinful holiday romance.

I absolutely loved this book! The age gap was definitely noticeable, but the connection between the characters made it completely worth it. Serena Pier does such a great job of building tension and chemistry—you can feel the pull between them from the start."Krampus" is dark, dominant, and deliciously dangerous, while his heroine brings out a side of him you don't expect. If you love age gap romances with a mix of rough play, forbidden heat, and a touch of holiday wickedness, this novella is a must-read.I am very thankful for the opportunity to be an To be an arc reader
