“There is someone watching, and somehow, that thought both terrifies and excites me.”
“Tonight, I’m Santa Claus. Oh, not the fat, jolly, ho-ho-ho one—no, no, no. My Santa’s a little… different.”
“She’s perfect. And she has no idea what’s coming for her.”
“Power takes many forms, and fear is one of them.”
“Isn’t that what every good little girl wants on Christmas Day? To be Santa Johnny’s own personal come stocking?” 


Once again, Nova has me speechless. The books just keep getting better and better!

I already loved Johnny in both A La Folie & Maison De Fous and this book made me love him even more. I loved seeing this other side of him. Yes, he is a murderous psychopath at times, but he is also surprisingly sweet and caring. 

The way Alaska was described through Johnny’s eyes was so beautifully written, and honestly, at this point I wish someone would watch me as admiringly as Johnny was watching Alaska.

Loved the creative use of Christmas decor and candy cane. And Johnny’s unique take on a snowman made me laugh.

Perfect, twisted Christmas story. I, once again, can’t wait to read more!



I received an ARC of this book and I am voluntarily leaving a review. Receiving ARC didn’t affect my opinion of the book.
