Naughty November: A Charity Anthology by Cara Dee, Colette Davison, Luna David, Kate Hawthorne, R.A. Frick, Shaw Montgomery, Morticia Knight, Gianni Holmes, E.M. Denning, AE Lister

5.0

The most difficult thing about these multi-author anthologies is that all of the stories are just too short! No matter the content, I always find myself wishing for more when I get to the end of each author's contribution. A solid 4.5 star read.

Sweet Mischief by [a:A.E. Lister|20851633|A.E. Lister|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1712575674p2/20851633.jpg] - 4.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Luthor & Atticus
Sweet and spicy little pup & pony play story between two like-minded individuals. They mesh so easily and so fully; their chemistry is absolutely off the charts. I would have loved a more fleshed out story for them, or at least a slightly more complete ending.

I'll Tell You What You Are by [a:Cara Dee|6936449|Cara Dee|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1618239463p2/6936449.jpg] - 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Max & Reid
Two best friends in the kink life finding their life and happiness together. An intense primal play story with a base of long-term friendship and love.

Leaving Him Locked by [a:Chara Croft|19057490|Chara Croft|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1563558250p2/19057490.jpg] - 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fletcher & Holden
Crazy Little story about a man and his little brother's best friend. Spicy mix of edging and awakenings. Sweet realization from Holden, who knew he always worshipped Fletcher, but didn't understand the extent until now.

Drawn To You by [a:Colette Davison|17282786|Colette Davison|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1559977072p2/17282786.jpg] - 4.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Jools(Julian) & Devin
Best friends and neighbors finding each other again after Jools has to move across the world. A few fateful meetings over the next 9 years, and they finally have their best chance to be and stay together once again, never losing the lasting love they had for one another

His Slutty Angel by [a:E.M. Denning|14215226|E.M. Denning|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1579276728p2/14215226.jpg] - 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Riley & Adrian
The novice and the expert, instant lust in a new kink environment (for Riley). Short, sweet, & spicy. And again, not nearly long enough. These two definitely deserved some more added to their story.

A Step Too Far by [a:Gianni Holmes|17910852|Gianni Holmes|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1704278123p2/17910852.jpg] - 4.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Iggy & Kee(Kieran)
The virgin and his adult star stepbrother. They love one another more than anything, but never admit the extent of it until Iggy decides it's definitely time to lose his virginity and Kieran knows he can't let anyone else take that from him.

Hands Off by [a:Kate Hawthorne|17636987|Kate Hawthorne|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1708272649p2/17636987.jpg] - 3.5 ⭐⭐⭐
Niko & Parrish
I can't say degradation stories are necessarily a favorite, but I do still love when the MCs discover how much they love and care for one another, no matter their preferences for intimacy.

Sleep Tight by [a:Luna David|14984667|Luna David|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1499232108p2/14984667.jpg] - 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Romeo & Jules
I love stories with generational legacies, even when they're simply noted as information about a character.
I can't say I'd previously heard of the kink used in this story, but I appreciate how it was written that never made it seem wrong or with any dubcon issues. I loved the bit of story "twist" at the end between the two MCs.

Safe and Sound by [a:Morticia Knight|5252602|Morticia Knight|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1426146104p2/5252602.jpg] - 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Gene & Alec
A second chance story with a D/s dynamic. Coming back together to find new kinks to enjoy to enhance their experience while renewing their previously unknown or misunderstood love.

Edging Glory by [a:R.A. Frick|20392414|R.A. Frick|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1668537732p2/20392414.jpg] - 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Daddy Sheldon & Beckett
Sweet Daddy/boy dynamic with both MCs having some level of high-functioning neurodivergence. A cute concept for these two gents to find love.

Hiding From Laughter by [a:Shaw Montgomery|14626797|Shaw Montgomery|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1710359805p2/14626797.jpg] - 4.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ashton & Micha
Established couple trying to spice things up a bit with some new, but possibly embarrassing kinks. Building off what he knows about his boy, Micha uses familiar techniques and strategies to introduce new fun, and opens Ashton's mind to eliminate his reticence. I love that a big part of this story includes cute and entertaining tickling. You can't ever go wrong with character laughter and it's a fantastic way to end the anthology series.

I had a lot of fun with this multi-author anthology, and I can tell each of the authors had quite a bit of fun themselves. I have no idea how they can write a full-fledged story in just a few chapters, but these guys did a wonderful job! I still always want more, but I can't complain about what I was given.

I received an advance copy of this book and am volunteering my honest review.
