Triple the Trouble, Triple the Heat: Why The Very Naughty List by Callie Rose Is the Spicy Holiday Treat You Didn’t Know You Needed
Welcome to the North Pole… Population: One Heartbroken Bride and Three Sinfully Hot Triplets
If your holiday TBR doesn’t include The Very Naughty List by Callie Rose, you are seriously missing out.
This book is a deliciously chaotic snowstorm of fake dating, revenge glow-ups, and enough steamy chemistry to melt the polar ice caps. And did I mention it’s a reverse harem romance with triplets? Because yes, Callie Rose really said, “Why stop at one book boyfriend when you can have three?”
The story kicks off with our girl returning home. But instead of crawling into a hole of seasonal depression and sad gingerbread men, she ends up fake-dating her brother’s three best friends. Oh, and did I mention they’re all hot, overprotective, and suddenly very interested in helping her tick off a naughty bucket list? Bless you, Christmas miracles.
Snow-Kissed Steam and Found Family Vibes
First of all, the Cooper triplets are everything. Callie Rose gave us distinct personalities for each brother, sweet, broody, and bossy, and somehow made it work. Their possessiveness toes the perfect line between swoony and spicy, and their protectiveness feels earned, not forced.
Hailey? She’s a delight. A little broken, but not bitter. Sassy, but soft-hearted. Her internal glow-up from hurt to healed is honestly inspiring and fun as hell to read.
There’s also a surprising amount of heart beneath the heat. The small-town dynamics, the family tension, the second-chance-at-life energy, it’s all handled with warmth and wit.
And let’s not forget that mistletoe scene. You’ll know the one.
Final Thoughts: Would I Recommend It? Heck Yes, I Would.
If you’re a fan of holiday rom-coms with extra spice and a dash of over-the-top fantasy, The Very Naughty List is your jam.
It’s flirty, filthy, and festive, and honestly? I’d fake date these brothers any day of the week. It’s unapologetically fun, a little wild, and all heart.
Spicy, snarky, and stuffed with triple the tension, Romanceaholic approved.
