This was a fun anthology. For me, it broke down as follows:Tree Topper by Jane Davitt was just ok, mostly because I didn't feel that connected to the characters. The wrapping paper was a nice touch, though.'Twas the Night by Ava March might have been my favorite story in the whole book. I loved the setting, characters and their relationship. Beautifully written, very restrained. Hot. This story deserves 5 stars.Fireworks by Katie Porter. DNF. Not for lack of trying but it was just too intense fo...
See my full review here:http://www.prismbookalliance.com/2012...A collection of 8 holiday tales (6 MM, 1 MMF, 1 FF) *note this is copied and pasted from my blog review of the same book*I often see people complain about short stories saying they need to be longer, but you have to remember these stories are meant to be just a peak into the lives of the characters. All eight of these stories are by well established authors and the experience shows in the quality of not only the writing, but also th...
I enjoyed this anthology and the variety of the stories, but there wasn't one that really stood out, in my opinion, even if each one of them had something unique.Tree Topper by Jane Davitt.Martin is a new Dom and his sub, Stan, seems more than he can handle. I liked this story. Martin is older, well meaning, concerned, but he doesn't seem to reach through Stan, who's not very obedient and who doesn't seem to take him seriously. We learn that Stan comes from an abusive relationship, his behavior
Full ReviewO Come All Ye Kinky is a holiday, BDSM themed anthology that incorporates the best of both concepts - a time for coming together and the beauty of submission. It consists of eight stories that center on the BDSM relationships of its characters during the holiday season, their desires, struggles and their bond.I was worried about how the authors were going to incorporate the holiday theme into their stories without losing the BDSM appeal. I expected that these would take place around t...
Posted on Under the CoversTREE TOPPER by Jane Davitt – 2 starsAs my first read by Jane Davitt, I had an open mind going into this story. TREE TOPPER is about Stan and Martin and their D/s relationship. Although I enjoyed the writing style and author’s voice, I found that I couldn’t get into this story. Unfortunately, I had no connection with the characters. The sex caters to more extreme tastes, which didn’t bother me, I simply didn’t relate to characters this time around.‘TWAS THE NIGHT by Ava
Bound for the holidays, anyone? This delightfully kinky anthology is filled with authors I really enjoy. If you are into the holiday spirit and want to read some kinky BD and D/s, this book is for you! The majority is m/m smexy romance. Each story is crafted with a message of love and romance. Delightful!Ms. Davitt kicks off the anthology with a dysfunctional D/s relationship. It's painful to watch the misunderstandings and miscommunication. I felt badly for the Dom who is trying to find his way...
The Oh Come All Ye Kinky anthology definitely lives up to its title. There is kinkiness galore! Peens get wrapped in snowman paper, butts get whipped with candy canes and other body parts get wrapped with Christmas lights. As you will see, some stories worked much better than others, but overall this is a pretty fun collection.Tree Topper by Jane DavittMartin could still remember the incredulous joy he’d felt the first time his hand had connected with Stan’s bare ass.Stan and Martin have been to...
I received my copy from Riptide Publishing through NetGalley.Review reposted because my first attempt was riddles with mistakes I only discovered after posting. You’d think that after about 44 years of being an avid reader I would have a pretty good idea of what I like and don’t like. This book proved to me though that, much to my delight, I’m still able to surprise myself every now and again. Had you asked me a few days ago I would have told you that I generally don’t like short stories and pre...
Some good authors get to strut their stuff in a Christmas kink-fest.All up, the play in this book was full of toys, different adventures, sexy interplay, creativity, different adult relationships and responsible play – no-one went where their partner didn’t want to, no-one played when they were intoxicated or drugged. A fun anthology with the Christmas holiday season and charity firmly in mind. Plenty of very enjoyable reads here. There’s not one story I would rate under 3 stars. Most would be u...
Shadow's review posted on Guilty Pleasures3 StarsOh Come All Ye Kinky is aptly named-this is a collection of almost entirely same-sex couples involved in BDSM activities at Christmas time. Some of the stories are hot, all are emotional, and some really explore the harsher aspects of BDSM, including knife play, wax play (with feathers!), suspension bondage and more.In Tree, Topper by Jane Davitt, Martin and Stan are a relatively new couple who care for each other, but who are uncertain in their r...

This anthology of holiday-themed BDSM short stories all have some sweetness to them, whether dealing with love, redemption, or reuniting. I was most looking forward to Joey W. Hill's story (she's one of my favorite authors), and it did end up my favorite of the bunch, but none of the stories were disappointing. Most of the stories were M/M, with one F/F, and a M/M/F. A great collection for those looking for some holiday cheer in their BDSM.ARC provided through NetGalley.

Edited by Sarah Frantz (who is also my editor for Free Falling & I highly HIGHLY rec her to any author thinking of self-pubbing)...I say this because I knew any book she edited would be great and I wasn't disappointed. Lots of favorite authors contributed to this antho, and the stories are short but satisfying. They all fit together perfectly. My favorites were LA Witt's Candy Caning and Kim Dare's His Ver Last Chance. I hope Riptide does this every year. And 20% of the proceeds are donated to t...
Nice set of complete stories. I did feel like they were complete in and of themselves (for the most part - the exception was the one with the girl who is now a guy which I thought needed a bit more because the taste we got was so good!). Liked them all - and they varied from more extreme (that's relative as it is all consensual), to the damaged sub, to the Dom who cannot say I love you, and everything in between. I really liked the F/f one quite a bit - and, again, the one where it was a girl an...
If you want something to warm you up on those cold winter nights, and you like a little kink in your reading, then this is the anthology for you. Great Authors and some very sexy reads! I sat and read this more or less in one go, loving my window into the authors writings. There is lots of sex, very hot and steamy, which is a bit of a give away with the title! But we are also treated to some tales which vary from the emotional to humorous. Unfortunately the only story I was unable to rate was...

Each relationship is full of

The anthology explores light BDSM to a much more explicit, adventurous style. A variety of stories are delivered with relevant issues and concerns, all circulating around a desire for submission, dominance, and love.Although the stories are lustful and dripping with sex, they also demonstrate humanism.
