"With her signature blend of raw primal passion and emotion, Addison Cain brings us a hot read guaranteed to warm up anyone’s winter night!” –Zoe Blake, USA TODAY bestselling author

An assassin’s vow of chastity must never waver. To crave the flesh is to be distracted. To fail.

Yet desire takes hold of reason each time he looks at River, his uninvited savior—the crass woman offering him shelter through a raging blizzard.

Stranded together in her cabin, it’s impossible to resist. The way her lips part as she sleeps, those soft brown eyes gazing at the fire… and a tongue sharper than any blade he’s buried in a target’s ribs.

He’s never known a woman, but her? He’s going to learn every last inch of River before the snow breaks.

A Night by my Fire is a stand-alone novella that contains no cliffhangers. Need to warm up in front of a fire? Wrap yourself in a soft blanket and enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars You can get burned by Fire!
Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2019

I wasn’t sitting by the fire when I was reading this story but it sure did feel like it from all the heat that was coming off the pages!!
My most favorite thing about Addison Cain as an author is, she knows how to give us, the readers, true depth to her characters. It is like the layers continually opening on a rose, and just when you think the character has reached its bloom, she shows us another level of emotion. But be careful, her characters always come with extremely sharp, abundant thorns. In this story, Mrs. Cain shakes up what for so long has become an almost cliché, predictable formula. In A Night By My Fire, it is the Male Lead that is the left for dead virgin, but by no means is he an innocent. Stephen is saved from sure death by the Female Lead, River. A competent, non-simpering, strong woman with her own demons haunting her. This complete role reversal of the “norm” is refreshing, captivating, and had me hooked all the way to the bittersweet end.

I don’t want this book to be over!
I really hope it continues!

I want more of River and Stephen, this was such a unique read and I’m absolutely craving for more. I will be haunted by this book for a long time, I enjoyed it that much.

Heat: 3.5/5
Drama: 3.5/5
Suspense: 5/5
Romance: hmmm... this was a hard one to rate, there is something between them 1.5/5. This rating is in no way saying it’s bad, you have to read the book to understand.
Dark(?): 2/5

Cliffhanger(?): In a way Yes, In a Way No.

I’m a huge fan of Addison Cain, I will read anything and everything she writes.

I am a HUGE fan of this author and once again she did not disappoint. This was A short exciting story about River that stumbled across an injured Stephen. River was living in the wilderness and Stephen had a dark mysterious past. The more I read the more excited I became. These two were at each others throats from the beginning until the end. The book ends with you asking yourself what did I just read? I'm looking forward to reading more about them in the future, I have so many questions. Great read.

A Night by my Fire By Addison Cain was an okay book. I know this is a short book but I wish the main characters had more chemistry a little bit of romance. Most if not all of the book they were yelling at each other. It could've been better in the romance department.

5.0 out of 5 stars Warms you up from the inside.
Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2019

The pages flew with this one. Between the unsung hero and misfit stray, it was oh so lovely to the nebulous end. The slow burn from despised hatred to passion well paced. What I enjoy about Addison Cain's books is the lack of preponderance on someone's name or story. They met, they fit, and it works for them for however long they wish. While Stephen knows River's name, it's unclear if she reciprocates the curiosity. It's not River's first time rescuing lost ones in her woods, nor will it be her last. River's got a story worth exploring though this arc of her life ends in a satisfying, cheeky way.

Very well written. I loved the twist in gender dynamic. But like a lot of people, the ending left me wanting more...and I don't think we're going to get it.

I loved having a chance to read an early work by this writer. All her key elements are there. The hero is damaged and savage and the heroine is equally feral and strong willed. Great read and if I had a complaint it would be that I want more... what happened next.

I did not need the happy ever after. But there was no mark made on him. He just moved on. She was left with two mouths to feed and more work. It’s way too real life and topical for me. The h I would not forget. The H is forgotten.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rugged perfection!
Reviewed in Canada on December 21, 2019

As always, Cain sucks you in from the get go, just to throw you for a loop you never expected!

River was perfection, and Stephen was the perfect juxtaposition of alpha male and domestic caregiver. It was so fun to read river and her casual feelings about gender stereotypes while it was something so baffling to our alpha.

As with every Addison Cain book, I want more, I need more, I’m an addict waiting for her next fix! When the book ends I want to pout like a small child, and demand more! GIVE. ME. MORE!

Happy Reading!

This thrilling, fun little piece had me in stitches more than once.

River lives in the middle of nowhere, in dependant and knows how to make use of what the land has to offer. Shabby, dirty, gritty but oh so empathic... Well... It's there even if a little bit served wrapped up in sarcasm. Hehe

In comes Stephen. Stone hearted? Njaanooo... I don't think he is, he's just got very bad people skills. But that is to be expected considering.

His blunt honest approach to everything, and his complete inability to recognise humor or piss taking was wonderful to read.

He practically takes everything literal.

It's fantastic to read and brings on so many fun situations.

All in all thus little novella was a fab read. Great for when you need to lift your spirits a bit.

The only thing I disliked was the end. I need to know more. Loved River! How often do you get a strong First Nations woman as the lead character? I feel like I was allowed to peer into a five star kitchen and only allowed an appetizer. Please, ma'am, may we have some more

Not what I expected but exactly what I expected at the same time...how spoilt of me.

The best part? The ending. Never had my desired ending be quenched, until now. Book, theme, genre, story, plot all be damned. Haven't known a story to end in a *true* 'goodbye', unless it involved death. Now I finally have one.

Thank you Addison Cain
