About this listen

Santa says ho, ho, ho. Krampus just wants one.

I used to like Christmas. But this year? Total dumpster fire. My fiancé ran off with my barely-legal baby sister, my dad’s six feet under, and my mom is cosplaying as Martha Stewart: Holiday Edition. All I want is to drink my weight in vodka, torch the mistletoe, and pretend Christmas isn’t happening.

Instead, I make one reckless wish—and accidentally summon Krampus. Yes, that Krampus. Horns, hooves, chains, the whole nightmare-before-Christmas starter pack.

Because when life gives you heartbreak, you don’t go to therapy. You summon a goat demon with a stalking kink.

So now I, Katherine Evergreen, have to survive thirteen terrifying days of Christmas with a monster who jingles when he walks, growls when he talks, and looks at me like I’m the only present worth unwrapping.

So wish me luck. Or whiskey. But preferably both.

Katherine Evergreen is having the Christmas from hell. She thinks it cant get any worse, then she accidently summons Krampus. This is dark, emotional and steamy read. I enjoyed this story and the characters involved. Katherine's sarcasm is great. This is the first book I have listened to by his author. It won't be the last.
The narration is excellent.

These two voices work so well together. The only thing I didn't like about the story itself was the truly toxic parenting. TW be prepared for a high level of spice.

Great pairing

Brilliant narration from Lauren Hilary and David McClain

Kathrine used to like Christmas, but this year she finds her fiancé ran off with my barely-legal baby sister, her father has died and mother is in prison . Drinking and forgetting sounds brilliant. Ohhh calling for Krampus may seem like a good idea but on second thoughts no. So no mistletoe or Christmas only drinking sounds good. Well that changes when Krampus appears, with hooves and yes chains. With a kink that will make you blush.

Welcome to the naughty list.

This was a lot—and I was absolutely here for it! You have to have a special kind of imagination to come up with something like this, and maybe be just a little twisted to truly enjoy it… which tells me this author and I might be a perfect match. This was my first listen from them, and I’m definitely in for more. The narration was well done and made the whole experience even better.

Yes, just yes!
