Ok, so where to begin with this cover. It is a great cover. It has good composition and title work. The man on the cover looks to be about the age of the hero. BUT and this is a BIG but and also a major pet peeve of mine. The hero is a golden blonde in this book. That guy on the cover...NOT a golden blonde. Probably not a biggie for most readers, but I am a picky cover whore, and it drives me BONKERS when the cover models don't match the characters found within.
WOWZA...was this one good. It was SO close to being a 5 Star read for me. The only thing stopping it was I felt it was a little slow moving in places. That was just a very tiny issue in an otherwise fantastic read. If you follow my reviews on here, you know me and DADDY kink are #besties. I LOVE me a well written DD/lg book and this one may be one of the best I have ever read.
The writing was fantastic (no surprise Eve's writing always is). The pace, as I mentioned above, I had some small issues with. The plot was engaging and intelligent. It was fairly angsty, but there was no OW/OM drama. The sex scenes were SMOKIN' hot. Like fan yourself and get a change of panties hot. In fact, do yourself a favor and just leave your panties off when reading this. Save yourself some laundry. lol It had humor. It had feels (OMG the letter Kate wrote near the end had me bawling like a baby).
There was a nice collection of eclectic secondary characters, and both main characters were for the most part very likable. There were certain times I found myself frustrated with Tyler and not liking him a whole lot and times when I wanted to shake Kate and say “wake the f@ck up! You deserve better.” But that is the magic of storytelling. Lastly, this was wrapped up in an OK ending. Personally “I” would have liked a bit more. That said, there may be a novella coming (hopefully), and I am sure we will see this couples HEA in that book. Not much left to say really, this one gets two HUGE thumbs up from yours truly.
UMMM WHAT??
I'm in shock, why does this not have at least 4.Something stars?? This book was magnificent, the depth of love I now feel for Eve Dangerfield's writing style can only be surpassed by how much I love her characters!
The writing is witty, sharp, effervescent. The world just flew off the pages and time and real life obligations felt meaningless. It was a very thorough, honest take on two characters finding their way in BDSM together. (Also featuring accurate and honest female ADHD rep). This book took its serious subject matter very seriously but still felt heartbreakingly romantic and sweet, with bits of humor sprinkled in. Nothing overblown, nothing unnecessary. It was just perfect.
Ok, I'm off now to go binge read everything else Eve Dangerfield
