Hot!
Dance for Daddy by Siggy Shade
Although a relatively quick read this book was hot!
The main female character is Aileen. She’s a young curvy woman; smart, kind, creative, beautiful. When her fathers business goes bust she agrees to an arranged marriage in return for her fiancés father saving her dads business.
Her fiancé Declan is the complete opposite of Aileen in every way - selfish, egotistical, cruel. His favourite things are drugs, money, women and humiliating Aileen telling her she’s fat and ugly. He’s decimated her self esteem and confidence.
After her friend has an accident leaving her unable to dance Aileen begrudgingly agrees to dance in her place at a burlesque club. What follows is pages of adoration, appreciation, praise, sexuality, spice and realisation. Realisation that Declan is wrong. Aileen is beautiful, she’s sexy and she’s wanted, she’s also got major voyeuristic tendencies. This book does a great job of building her up and making her entire burlesque experience sexy and sensual whilst rebuilding her confidence and making her soar, and I was loving every minute of it - it was hot.
Add in the introduction of her future father in law and things just get even hotter. If she felt wanted whilst doing her dance on the main stage he magnified it by a million. The chemistry between the two is off the charts.
If you’re looking for a hot and spicy read with an age gap, a curvy female lead and the adoration of her curves this book is for you!
