Get Christmas all year long… working on my next article. That was until I received a call from an old friend, who made me a proposition I couldn’t afford to refuse.
So this year, I was spending Christmas with the insanely rich Christmases. When I arrived at the famous mansion, Bryn, the one who invited me, was nowhere to be found. It was her older brother, Jasper who welcomed me with un-opened arms.
Jasper Christmas was a beautiful but dark angel. He was an intense, brooding man with a tortured soul. Danger dripped from his pores.
So soon Bryn’s proposition would put me at odds with this mysterious and alluring creature, who guarded their family’s secrets with his flaming sword. Sources warned me to stay away from him, but the more I tried, the more impossible he made it. Now, I’m worried our encounters will make me betray the reason I was invited to the great Christmas family estate in the first place. Or, was that his intention all along?

AWFUL, TERRIBLE, and DREADFUL!!!! The author keeps switching tense throughout the whole book without any rhyme or reason. The erotic seans are badly written and unimaginative. Worst of all the family secret is all about sex with underage young girls (12-15 years old) that were forced into prostitution with gross old men. I don’t now how underage sex trafficking is in any way sexy.
I was intrigued enough to read it all…very different story from what I have read previously. The magnetic pull between the two characters has them acting in ways foreign to their normal behavior. Strange family arrangements that only the Wealthy could come up with. Power and money and Pawns for life seem to be the main theme in this story. A bit heavy for me, I like the Happy endings.
Loved the whole trilogy!
It’s part of a trilogy. It can’t stand alone since there’s no resolution to the mystery behind the family.
This is part of a trilogy and I received this one free. The characters are not interesting enough to continue to the next book. Disappointing.
This trilogy had it all. You are constantly on the edge of you seat.
This book (and series) is HOT! Once I started it, I couldn’t put it down.
Puts the “D” in dysfunctional families. Didnt want it to end!
the two main characters were perfect for each other.
Major cliffhanger
This is the first book in this series but what a start. Quite a bit is going on as you are introduced to Bryn’s family and wow what a family. The Christmas Family that is. Holly is in college and her roommate is Bryn. Bryn invites Holly to her family home but when Holly gets there, Bryn isn’t there. Bryn’s brother Jasper is there and as they get to know each other, wow they really get to know one another. So much going on in this book. Mystery evolves around this family but nothing is finalized as it ends on a cliffhanger so guess this is the start of a series. Looking forward to the next in this saga.

Dark Suspense…
Sizzling Hot Read! Secrets and lies abound in this intense drama of the infamous Christmas family. The romance between Holly and Jasper is laced with intrigue and very Hot! Compelling storyline full of emotions, strong characters and cliffhanger ending. Can’t wait to read the next book. Enjoy!
I received an arc copy and am happy to leave my honest review.
A great steamy read. I wish I had realized this was a book that would end on a cliff-hanger, so if you do not like cliff-hangers wait until the series is finished to read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
The title of this book can never be more aptly accurate. Intrigue pulls you in from the first page until the last. This particular family is the most bizarre, psychotic, dysfunctional people I have ever encountered in a book. Absolutely a fantastic read. However, there are several huge cliffhangers at the end

I definitely agree with the title. The book is intriguing. That mansion holds many mysteries as much as secret passageways. Equally obvious is Jasper’s addiction with Holly. The chemistry is there. Sex was steamy, intense, and non-stop. But the question is “Is it enough?”. I can’t wait for the continuation of this story and the rest of its revelations. [I received an advanced copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.]
Beware, Huge Cliffy ahead! I hate cliffys, but I loved this writer and storyline!
Holly is bright, talented and caught in the middle of an intense mystery involving the Famous Christmases, where everyone is holding a deep dark secret and Holly is the only one trying to figure it out.
Compelling and totally intriguing as the title implied, the romance that erupted between Jasper and Holly was hot, hot, hot!! I almost screamed Nooooo! when I got to the end of this book because of the awesome cliffy! Did I mention I hate them?
Very well written and addictive!
