12 brand new stories by 14 authors, all forbidden or taboo in nature, but seriously delicious and just in time for the holidays.
Whether you like age gap, guardian, step-siblings, or even a naughty priest there is a forbidden holiday story contained within this anthology.
These were just a few of the ones I delved into:
Unwrap Him - by Nyla K.
A MM/Guardian Age-Gap story. James has been the guardian of Jesse, the son of his best friends who died years ago, and he's only ever wanted to protect and raise him right, but when Jesse makes a pass at James can he really cross that line?
Dirty Secrets - by Ivy Fox and Thandie
An ex-boyfriend's dad/Age-Gap story. Nicole is headed to spend Christmas with her sister who recently married her ex...yikes. The night before Nicole decides to have one night of passion with a delicious dreamboat, the next morning she discovers that dreamboat is actually her ex's father. What a tangled web to unwind this holiday season.
Through the River, Into the Woods - by Leigh Lennon
A MMF/Guardian/Age-Gap/Step-siblings story. This story has just about every taboo you could want, plus all the angst and emotion too. River and Kenzie are step-siblings and when they lose their parents they go to live with Isaiah and things really heat up after that.
If forbidden and taboo is your jam, this holiday collection is perfect!

Unwrap Him by Nyla K was phenomenal!
I’m not going to lie, I usually hate Christmas but these two just made it so much sweeter. If you are looking for a quick, but SPICY, M/M, guardian/ward holiday read then this is the story for you!
Just take my advice and don’t read it at the Christmas dinner table or you’ll have to explain your pink cheeks to grandma.

This is a review for unwrap him by nyla k ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
So i read this book after reading serpent in white and i was blown away by this author's capacity of switching from darkness to rainbow and snow and sunshine.
This book was so swoon worthy

Taboo, twisted, corrupted, mis-matched and dirty minded are words that can describe this collection of 12 Christmas stories, but I can also add hot, steamy, spicy, fiery and oh so delicious. This collection has it all!! Twelve separate stories that will give the reader just enough sparkle to overcome the taboo. Featuring unholy bonds, age gaps, Daddy issues, MM debauchery as well as MFF sizzle. Each and every story packs a punch and puts the reader on the naughty list - but oh what a way to enjoy the holiday.

This 5 star review is for the amazing writing duo of S. Rena and BL Mute. Their contribution Baby is just a snippet of what these two talented authors are known for. They do an awesome job of dangling the proverbial carrot in front of our faces. I don't know about anyone else, BUT I need more of Baby NOW! We get a younger man who knows just what his older leading lady needs. I can not wait to get more, because I have a feeling Baby is going to give his older brothers a run for their money when it comes to taking care of his woman.

I love that there was a bit of everything in this anthology. Each story was the perfect length for a quick read and it was nice to go to bed at a decent time without having to finish an entire book first.
There were some authors I loved and some new to me authors and I can’t wait to devour more of their books.
I loved this collection! Perfect for those who like something different than the usual holiday stories and books.

This rating is just for Q.B. Tyler's story, I plan on reading a few more in this anthology and when I do I'll update my review and overall rating.
Always Been You by Q.B. Tyler: 5 stars. This story was the main reason I got this anthology. James and Gabrielle are adopted brother and sister. They are very close and spend much of their time together but so far nothing has happened...until something does. These two were so hot together, clearly meant for each other. I loved it. This was so good.
I also loved Gabrielle and James's family, and Monica when she. I know Q.B. Tyler is releasing a full length version in less than a week and I'm so happy these two get a longer story. There were many moments where I could see that there could be more included if this wasn't a short story format. I am looking forward to it. I already plan on getting the ebook, paperback of the original cover, and hardback of the limited/alternate cover (I think the alternate cover is coming out in hardback). I'm so excited.
