I am a full-time mom to two sassy, strong-willed, loveable little girls. What can I say? They take after their Mama. I’m on the wrong side of 30, and I have been married to my best friend for over ten years and I couldn’t imagine doing life with anyone else by my side. We are Southern California transplants, currently residing in a very rural part of the east coast. I have two crazy dogs that I adore, even though they drive me out of my ever-loving mind most days.
Writing and graphic design consume all of my spare time and I could not be happier. This journey I am on is a crazy one, but I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
I won’t lie, this is a bit cringy in some parts. But still pretty cute. I liked that Crystal got a second chance at being a kid for Christmas. And an opportunity to get off the naughty list.
THE MAGIC—YOU HAVE TO EXPERIENCE THE MAGIC OF CHRISTMAS
I will have to say, that from the beginning to the end of the story I was so engrossed in the characters, the magic of Christmas, Santa’s naughty list, and those who are nonbelievers, along with the character interaction that I did not put the book down. While the story is fantasy, with Santa magic, it also has some great reminder of the importance of believing in the joy of Christmas. Together, Ms. Rayanna Jamison and Ms. Allysa Hart making an excellent writing duo.
“It is the job of Santa to bring the magic of Christmas to everyone, young and old, and help to rid the world of nonbelievers because nonbelievers dampen the joy of Christmas for others.”
On the thirty-ninth birthday, the son of Santa and Mrs. Claus will take the reigns and become the new Santa, but he also needs to find a nonbeliever female, convert her to believe in Christmas, and make her his wife. For Yule Claus, he only has two weeks to make that happen. But his father has narrowed the playing field of eligible non-believing females down to one, Crystal Turner of Las Vegas.
“This Christmas? Like the one that is in two weeks? Holy freaking fruitcake! I hope you are kidding me right now! That’s impossible. There’s no way it will be that easy. And, what if my Mrs. Claus is not a nonbeliever, and I don’t find her in time because all I’m focused on is the mission?”
“She wasn’t just a nonbeliever—she was a straight-up Christmas hater.”
The story will have Yule surprising Crystal in her apartment, spanking her, and shocking her with his magic as he tries to convert her to believe in Christmas. He starts out overly aggressive and realizes he needs to slow down and wow her with the joys of Christmas. Knowing some of her past history, what leads to her lack of believing, will help him in his mission. The first step, take her to a childlike time and make her see it as a six-year-old and help her see it differently. The clock is ticking, and the more Yule is with Crystal, the more he falls for her—but she is falling for him too. He must be her Daddy first, to help win her over.
“Will you let me be that Daddy, little elf?”
Can Santa Daddy teach his naughty little elf what matters, help her find joy in the season, help her break some bad habits, and learn the joy the season and of giving? The story has many spanking scenes, and the sex scenes are not why in the little stage.
“Daddies don’t make empty threats, little one. They make promises, and they keep them. And my promise to you is this: You are going to learn about the magic of Christmas either on my knee or over it, little elf.”
“Not at all, little elf. That means you are beginning to trust me and yourself. It’s exactly what I want from you. I want you to feel that childlike freedom to experience Christmas in the way you should have when you were a child.”
I found the story to be entertaining, especially the Christmas swearing instead of a cuss word. When you learn more about why Crystal doesn’t believe, it will break your heart. I would go from laughing out loud at some scenes to emotional tears at others. I love the Daddy Dom Santa, and his little elf Crystal together. He is a stern but loving Daddy, and gives his little elf exactly what she needs to heal from the hurt that she has carried for several decades.
I needed a laugh and something christmsy.. so i picked up this little bad boy!! It's a fun read light harded some spanking some dom daddy ;)

Instalove/lust Joyful dominate caring tough alpha male Stubborn bratty insecure sassy gal Spankings No cheating Push and pull Sex Hea Epilogue
I loved this book. It was silly, sweet and still hot!! Definitely one I will be reading again as it gets closer to Christmas. Pick up this little treasure and enjoy!
Thoroughly enjoyed this quick holiday read. Sweet and spicy! Loved the magic aspect of it without it being corny or too much. Obviously loved the FMC sharing the same name as me. Something that doesn’t happen often in books. Loved how Yule was patient but persistent. And how he was able to give her childlike experiences that brought back the magic in her life.
Honestly, this is a great read for any time of year.
“It’s destiny. It’s been destiny from the very beginning. Before dating or marrying was a thought in either of our heads. You were always mine. You just didn’t know it yet.”

Merry fruitcaking Christmas! Allysa Hart and Rayanna Jamison are two of the best Daddy authors out there right now, and they got together to celebrate the holiday in style.
Yule has just turned 39 and it's now time for him to join the family business. In his case, that means it's time for him to become Santa Claus. There's just one more thing that he has to do. That's to find his Mrs. Claus off the list of non-believers, convert her, and marry her.
Crystal is the only woman on the non-believer list that will suit his needs. She doesn't even like Christmas, let alone believe in Santa. Yule finds out just how much work he has to do when he meets her for the first time.
I love Yule. I mean, OK, his name is a little overly Christmas-y, but if you're going to be Santa and you're born 2 weeks prior to Christmas, you kinda deserve what you get, right? But, he's also funny, and not necessarily in that dad humor kind of way either. I love the interactions between him and his parents, who you can tell love him dearly. His parents are a hoot and a half too.
I like Crystal too, mostly. She's rather cynical and a little jaded sometimes, and I say this as a somewhat cynical person, that kind of makes her a little hard to cheer for sometimes. I totally understand where she's coming from with it, but that doesn't mean that it makes it any easier to like her during those moments. However, there aren't that many of them, and overall, I like her, so it's all good.
4.5 Stars Review by Allyson Up All Night w/Books Blog
A little bit of mistletoe with some Ddlg play goes a long way to turn a non-Santa believer into a rosy-cheeked little elf in Santa Daddy by Rayanna Jamison.
This is not your typical Hallmark Christmas lovable, sweet romance. It’s a sprinkle of kink, a dash of a spank with a flick of the wrist. As a son of a nutcracker, you have the magic of Christmas at the palm of your hands. (Literally)
Will Santa “Yule” Claus find his Mrs. Claus who is a Scrooge in the spirit of Christmas? Or will the holiday be doomed by love?
Jamison did a fantastic job in this fast-paced fantasy romance illuminating our rosy-cheeked, white-bearded, red-suited man we all have grown to love as kids but, turned him into a dominating, kinky Daddy. I think all of us has had those Santa fantasies before... Well, Jamison just delivered a Holy Hotcakes novel for you to devour!
Not to mention the comedy that pours from the North Pole. Oh, my reindeer! Santa Sir, you are Jolly!
“I unbuttoned the sleeves of my flannel shirt and rolled them up to my elbows as I listened to her continue her tirade about domineering fake Santas taking over her life. I was about to show her exactly how Santa felt about her behavior.”
A merry Christmas to all and to all a one-click good night!”
*ARC provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.*
Turning 39 means that Yule Christmas is about to take over the family business of being Santa Claus . . . there’s just one catch. He needs to be married to a former non-believer before Christmas eve, which is only 2 weeks away, or Christmas is permanently cancelled.
Crystal Turner doesn’t celebrate Christmas. She hasn’t believed since she was a young child who never got her Christmas wish. When Yule literally shows up out of thin air to not only convince her to believe in Santa and the magic of Christmas as well as to be his wife, she reacts as any normal person would . . .she calls the police.
Yule has his work cut out for him, but along with his persistence and a bit of Christmas magic, he’s ready to convince Crystal to fall in love with Christmas and with him!
Santa Daddy was a fun and flirty holiday read. Crystal is very stuck in her ways and also on the naughty list . . . her childhood has made her lose track of what the Christmas holiday is all about, making Yule’s job much harder. Being a Daddy Dom, however, he is up to the task of giving Crystal everything she not only wants, but needs if she can only learn to trust in him. Yule is a delicious combination of sweet and dominant and truly is everything that Crysta needs. Watching him help Crystal explore and learn to enjoy the holiday for the first time in her life was sweet, funny and super hot! 4 stars for Santa Daddy!
Santa Daddy is the third book in the Fantastical Daddy Doms series, but completely stands alone. Crystal doesn’t believe in Santa, hates the Christmas season, and is about to be permanently on the naughty list. Yule is the new Santa and it’s his job to take care of the non-believers before Christmastime, using any means necessary. Does Santa have enough time to turn his naughty girl into his good little wife?
You know those books that are just magical because they make you laugh and feel good on the inside and make you believe in true love? Yeah, that’s this book! Santa Daddy has everything that makes Daddy Dom books fantastic (see what I did there?!), like the sassy and slightly naughty lady that needs the stern and loving guidance of her daddy, but you get to add the whole level of Christmas magic and good cheer! Crystal only wanted one thing growing up, and when that didn’t come, she stopped believing. Yule was so driven to help Crystal believe and was exactly what she didn’t know she wanted or needed! I loved their dynamic, their time spent together, their passion, and their love! I definitely laughed out loud at times, and even teared up towards the end, too! This is a must read book that’s just absolutely perfect for Christmas!
this was more ddlg - daddy santa is weird thing to think about but it was weirdly hot - the fmc was 31 on the naughty list and a non believer ( tbh tho most of us past the age of 11 if not younger than that DONT BELIEVE IN SANTA ANYMORE)
- anyways in this book he is real & he literally spanks her the moment he sees her which i found weird because like WHERES THE CONSENT?? that gave me the ick a bit
his parents basically send him to her
- LIKE GIRL HATES CHRISTMAS ALTOGETHER BECAUSE HER DAD DIED ON THAT HOLIDAY AND LIKE SHE NEVER GOT TO Experience it.
this was a ddlg book fr ( The fact that he basically made her realise she was a little and that she didn’t already know felt weird too ngl)
— i mean this book itself was a weird concept
— he didnt allow her coffee - basically he didnt allow her to MAKE THE EXECUTIVE DECISION ABOUT WHETHER SHE WANTED TO BE A LITTLE OR NOT!! and like 😭😭😭😭
i liked this book but i wish she had already been into it before they met!! or at least Was slightly interested
this book is not a bdsm book
- she gets punished at first without her consent in a way !! liek idk if she was playing into the little girl role or what but like 😭😭
Yule is now taking over the family tradition and becoming Santa! Only Santa needs a Mrs. Clause and her name is Crystal! Crystal is a nonbeliever who's also on the naughty list! Yule has two weeks to make her a believer and claim her as his wife! He will do whatever it takes, even putting her over his knee! This is Dom/Christmas book that will definitely have you laughing!!

Yule proposes becoming Crystal’s “daddy” as a way to help her rewrite a childhood shaped by loss. Her father died when she was one, and Christmas was never really celebrated growing up. His goal is to spoil her, make her fall in love with Christmas, and him. He needs to convince her to become Mrs. Claus within a very short two week timeline.
Crystal is 31, Yule (aka Santa) is 39, and the story leans heavily into the DD/lg dynamic. This was my first time reading age play, and while I appreciated that both characters are adults, I learned pretty quickly that this trope is not for me.
The book is very short and not very spicy, which I actually liked. It felt more focused on the holiday fantasy and emotional caretaking than explicit content.
It was not a bad read, just not my cup of tea trope wise. If DD/lg is something you already enjoy and you want a quick, low spice Christmas novella, this might work for you.
Yule Christmas has the title on 'Santa' passed to him on the eve of his 39th birthday... his mission is not only to take present to children all over the world but to convince an unbeliever that not only are they destined to be together but she is his his destined Mrs Claus... in two weeks!!!
Light and fluffy with a touch of sassy DD/LG... out of many of the books in this genre this was a very light introduction. The focus is on building the relationship between Yule and Crystal... I have to say I loved Yule. He was a great male lead.
I have to say that despite light and fluffy this was somewhat of an emotional read, and I found myself both surprised and thoroughly enjoying this book. I'd have loved a bit more of an epilogue because I ALWAYS want to know what happens after... and because this was Mr and Mrs Claus... I was especially intrigued.
Yule aka Santa Claus has been given the task by his parents, Mr. & Mrs. Claus to become the new Santa and work on the non-believers, well just one. You see, that ONE is the new Mrs. and he first has to change her mind. Crystal is so not a believer. She likes her pumpkin spice latte not peppermint mocha and she sure as heck doesn’t believe in all this stuff. But sometimes a spanking is what is needed to make things right. This is actually a fun book and some great laughs. First the fact there is a Santa, naughty list and also spanking for those that are non-believers. I laughed when I read that Vixen the elf mistress takes care of the men on the naughty list was too funny. The letters from Crystal when she was a child made me sad. I can see a child asking Santa for that and then losing faith in him.
At age 39, it is time for Yule to takeover the role of Santa Claus for his father. It is just two weeks till Christmas, but Christmas Magic will disappear, if Yule doesn't have his Mrs. Claus by then. His father and mother have picked out the young woman for Yule to make a true believer and his wife.
Yule transports himself into Crystal's apartment. There is not one Christmas decoration out, but Yule falls in love with Crystal at first site. His work is cut out for him to get her off the naughty list. Crystal lost her faith in Santa and Christmas as a child, when Santa failed to provide the Daddy she requested in her life. Yule knew just what to do ….become her Santa Daddy and regress her to a six year-old for the weekend.
This is a sweet and sexy novel as Crystal's pain melts away, and she falls in love with the hunky Santa that tastes like candy canes.
i read this book as part of an arc program. This was a great Daddy story. Yule was Santa and Mrs. Claus' son and on the eve of his 39th birthday, he took over the job of being Santa. According to the rules, he had to find his Mrs. Claus before Christmas, or Christmas would be ruined. That left 2 weeks for Yule to find her. Lucky for Yule, his father told him she was Crystal, a nonbeliever who hated Christmas. Yule had to make Crystal a believer and get her off the naughty list before the two weeks were up. Yule showed up at Crystal's house and started to spank her for being a nonbeliever. Crystal thought he was crazy and didn't make Yule's job easy. I really enjoyed this story. I love how Yule was a strong Dom and helped Crystal believe and get on the good list. Great one.
This was mostly cute and had some surprisingly emotional parts which was a bonus, but two main things stopped me from giving a higher rating: the icky lack of consent right at the start when Yule just barges into her house and starts spanking her, like WTF. He kind of shoves her into DDLG role play and eventually we see she likes it, but I wish the framing was more that Crystal was exploring it or looking stuff up but chickening out.
Also it takes FOREVER to get to the sex, and after all the build up and all the spankings, it is pretty tame and lacking in detail. I guess I prefer to read a mix of punishment and funishment/sex, Crystal just got her butt whipped a lot (spanking, wooden spoon, belt.)
This is a fun , sexy and humorous Daddy Dom story with Yule , soon to be Santa , needing to convert Crystal , a nonbeliever who's also on the naughty list and is the future Mrs. Claus. Unbeknownst to her. I loved their characters and had some laugh out loud moments and chuckles with his cute Christmassy cuss words. This is a well written holiday romance that will be sure to get you into the Christmas spirit. I enjoyed and would recommend this book.

Allysa Hart & Rayanna Jamison have really outdone themselves! I have loved every book I have read by them but this one is over the top! I'm reading it slow because I want to savor this book & I'm still not done with it!!! It has all my favorite parts about Christmas & more!!! I relate to this book more than any other book I've read in years! It's one of the best books I've read in a long time & it will be on my to read again list!!! If I could I would have given a gazillion stars!

There is plenty of spankings happening in this story. Crystal was on the naughty list and a non-believer of Christmas. Yule's 39th birthday is 2 weeks before Christmas. He now has to convince Crystal that Christmas magic is real and that she is his Mrs. Claus. If it doesn't happen within these two weeks something terrible will happen to Christmas. All she wanted when she was little was a daddy. Her real father died when she was a baby. Can Santa Yule be the daddy she needs?
I don't think this story was for me. I didn't really enjoy it. Everyone has their own kink, but I don't think this level of "daddy" kink is mine. I finished reading until the end, but I really wasn't a fan of some parts of the story. For example, her regression period into a 6 year old or the fact that the older Santa basically set his son and her up to fulfill her daddy wish that she had when she was younger. I was honestly just kind of off-putting. The amount of spanking in this was overdone as well. I won't judge anyone for what they like, but this one just wasn't for me
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
This is a great book if you enjoy age-play romances. Oh heck. Even if you don't, this book is for everyone. If you believe in Santa, you'll cheer and the unbelievers will be added to the "naughty" list!. I enjoyed the humorous bent of a reluctant 31 year old woman being courted to be Mrs. Claus. It's a lot of fun reading this book and it will definitely get you in the holiday mood!

I was really intrigued by this one because it's Santa looking for his Mrs. Claus. It gets real interesting when he has to claim a non-believer as his wife. My heart went out to Crystal because of why she's not a fan of Christmas. Yule is going to show Crustal all that she missed out on with holiday. It's a cute holiday story. I really liked Yule. The thing I liked most about this book is the twist of the story of Santa. I also loved watching Crystal experience the joy of the holiday season.
Hehehehe this killed me! Was not expecting this Santa at all but I'd so take one!!! Gotta love a story that makes me giggle, gives me the feels and keeps me interested til the end. Crystal was someone I could definitely relate to.....I may or may not be a Grinch......Christmas is kinda lonely for one! But the cherry on top for me was the non cussing cuss words! Lol.......fruitcaking, Holy Holly and best of all......H-E- double candy canes! Definitely be wanting more of these!
When Yule takes over as Santa he discovers that he has to find and marry his Mrs. Claus by Christmas eve. Crystal is the one for him. The problems??? First she is a non-believer. Second she is on the naughty list. This is a short and fun story with Santa convincing Crystal of so many things in so many fun ways. Know will never see candy canes and egg nog the same again. Loved it!!!!

If more intense Daddy books aren’t your thing and you FREAKING LOVE CHRISTMAS then you are in for a candy cane and eggnog-flavored treat (inside joke, now you have to read the book). Light on the Daddy but still a sweet story about getting his newfound true love off the naughty list. The Christmas curse words alone made it hysterical. Loved it! Looking forward to reading the other books in the series.
