This is a quick little sexy Christmas romance. Since it’s so short; it’s definitely less plot driven and more smut driven.

My perfect, innocent little girl. My grown-up Neely.
Mine.
I waited for her, even when I didn't know it would be her. And now I will be whatever she wants, however she wants, for the rest of her life.

4 Daddy Christmas stars!

This was a sexy and surprisingly sweet Christmas-themed story of forbidden love! I love a good age-gap romance, and Chloe Maine is quickly becoming one of my top authors in the genre. She delivers low drama, daddy kink romance stories, which is exactly what I was hoping for between Ford and Neely. I do wish it was a little more fleshed out (as with her previous story), but if you're looking for a sexy novella with a grumpy Santa look-alike, then this is the novella for you ♡

~Neely has longed for Ford, and vice versa. But Ford thinks there’s something wrong with him so he steers clear of her whole family. When she shows up in the middle of a storm, he takes care of her.~

Beautiful story of two people waiting until the time is right. Very taboo. Love that Neely fights of what she wants even though Ford pushes back. Love that their loved ones are understanding of their relationship.

3.4 stars.
This was a little different breed of ‘Daddy’ kink than I’ve really seen before.
I thought the book was pretty good.
It was short and steamy and that’s what I was looking for.
But I’m still not exactly sure how I feel about the way their kinks were gone about.

I’m used to Laylah Roberts’ DD/lg books where there’s a big emphasis on the caregiver role, and the age play and all of it is mostly about stress relief, and of course there’s an underlying arousal about being taken care of and role playing, but it’s not taken to the same place that this one was.

I don’t know.
I liked the book, and I liked the steam.
The last little bit with the fantasy they played out just gave me pause for a minute because of the way the author wrote its explanation or description I guess.

I ate this up in one sitting. The way this is a like a wholesome forbidden romance was so cute to me honestly. Ford was trying his best to keep at bay but Neely had other plays and well daddy couldn't hold out for too long!

What a spicy, fun, sexy Christmas-themed novella. Santa's Baby is a forbidden love story; it's a part of A Filthy Dirty Christmas Series, and I loved it!

Both Neely and Ford have been feeling each other for a while now, but they never acted on it because she is his best friend's daughter.

Neely needs someone to play Santa at her job, and she knows she can count on Ford to help out.
When a storm traps them together, Ford and Neely will finally have their chance to explore their feelings for each other.

I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a spicy fun holiday novella.
