PLEASE NOTE:The author will be making some revisions to this book before it's official release date that will address some of the issues I had. Check out the comments below for more information.

This is the second book I've read by this author, and I do have to say that I really enjoy her writing. She has a knack for pulling you into a story and keeping you interested throughout. The pacing was spot on (apart from the last chapter), and the sex scenes were hot.

This is a contemporary “DD/lg book that was more in line with my likes. No diapers or bottles or pacifiers (thankfully). It still skated the line for me, but I think that had more to do with my confusion with the hero's motives than the kink itself.

Surprisingly even though this was more mild version of the DD/lg kink in terms of play I ended up enjoying it SLIGHTLY less than I did PRETTY LITTLE ROSE. My issues were the character themselves. Their thoughts seemed very scattered at times which ended up confusing me to the motive driving their need for this kink.



I felt perhaps that if their backgrounds had been more fully developed, I would have got a better understanding. If Natalie had maybe shown some interest in the kink prior to meeting Mason it wouldn't have come across like she had “daddy issues” I also didn't care for the revelation of Mason losing a child before it was born. It confused me over what he was actually trying to do. At some points, it seemed he was trying to replace the real child he lost, but with the sex stuff that was just too creepy to contemplate. I wish the author had left that whole plotline out and had just made him being a Daddy Dom his kink and left it at that.

I also had a couple of issues with things just coming out of left field at us. Natalie's reaction to the “phone incident” was WAY over the top in my opinion. I had to go back and re-read the scene because I couldn't figure out why she suddenly was going batshit crazy over what he did. I honestly still have NO clue. We also have a bunch of twists thrown at us in the last chapter that again seemed to have come out of left field.

Lastly...NO EPILOGUE. Look I am a self-confessed epilogue whore. I LOVE them. I NEED them. That said some books do work without them. This one...not so much because we are left sort of in limbo.

Now, I know that sounds like I didn't overly enjoy this one. I really DID. Sometimes explaining the things you didn't like seems to take up more page space than listing the things you did. Like I said earlier I am enjoying this author's writing and I will continue to read (and hopefully) enjoy many more of her books in the future.
