Daddy Kink
No Rating


Daddy kink is something I never thought I’d like probably because I still call my own dad daddy sometimes. 🤷🏻‍♀️ However, I’ve found when it comes to MM romance I like a lot of tropes I’d never have considered before but no matter how hard I’ve tried I just can’t get into the age play/littles thing and this anthology is chock full of them. Therefore, I won’t be rating this because I only read 4 stories but I definitely recommend it to anyone who loves all kinds of daddy kink. 💗

In Daddy’s Care by Chara Croft (MM)
This one was ok but not my favorite of the ones I read. Basically, Daddy Callum is having lunch with his niece at an expensive restaurant and sees the boy of his dreams working there. He’s hesitant to act on it but his niece convinces him to give it a go. I forget how it all happens but Dash ends up staying in Callum’s apartment while he’s on a business trip and when he comes home it turns into more. It was hard for me to believe this could happen therefore I checked out.

The Story Of Danny Rose by Cara Dee (MM)
This one I enjoyed much more but I skimmed through the military speak because it’s just not my jam but this is about daddy Emerson Payne who is training army drop out twins to do private jobs and while they are on vacation, his old charge Danny Rose shows up at his cabin. Danny Rose was a bratty but smart boy who Emerson always felt more for but couldn’t get involved with when he was training Danny way back when. Anyway, Danny shows up wanting to be trained like the twins and also in desperate need of a daddy. This actually had some littles age play since Danny had a plushie but I liked it anyways and these two were hot. There’s a note that the twin’s story is Breathless, book 3 in The Game series. This made me a bit sad because my warped brain was hoping for a twincest book due to the twins being super kinky but I’m thinking I might need to read their book anyways.

Found In The Woods by Reese Morrison (M/FTM)
This one was my favorite and I LOVED the dynamic between these two because it was so different from any other daddy/boy stories I’ve read. James decides to take his kids camping and meets Elio who is camping with his siblings in the campsite next to him. When James meets Elio sparks fly instantly; Elio is flirty, fun and makes James feel at ease. James is the daddy in this scenario because he’s older and has kids but Elio is the one in charge. Elio’s backstory was really interesting and I adored the two of them together. I’d really love if this was turned into a full length book and I’ve never heard of this author before but I hope to read more.

Love Me Again by Colette Davison (MM)
This one made me want to read more of this author because I absolutely adored this story. Tanner and Wren are high school sweethearts and plan on spending their life together but things go sideways in the prologue and they break up. Fast forward 5 years and they are reunited at a daddy kink club. Despite this being short, this author reeled me in with the prologue and made me care about this couple. Usually I need to see the whole backstory to really enjoy stories like this but what I did see made me emotional and I needed more. I loved how these two found each other again and cared for the other. I’d love a full length story of this one too. 💗

Only read Cara Dee’s story. Loved it. Cara can do no wrong.

[Rin (indefinite hiatus) · Rating 3 out of 5]

I’m going against my gut and rounding up 3.5 stars only for the ones I enjoyed. Siobhan’s, Reese’s, Cara’s, & JM Dabney/Sammi Cee’s.

Four out of thirteen isn’t great, but is pretty typical for me with this anthology.

Overall, I’d say this was more successful than last years and the only reason I read it was because it’s on KU, but I guess it was worth it for the few I did enjoy.

✔️Daddy’s Little Sunshine- MA Innes- cute. Solid 3 ⭐️⭐️⭐️

✔️Chara Croft- In Daddy’s Care- negative stars?? ⛔️⭐️⛔️ Wtf is wrong with these authors?! Who thinks writing an MC who is “jailbait” and focusing solely on how young and innocent he is is ok?? I read a lot of daddy books and a lot with age gap, some where the younger MC is a new adult. It’s always dependent on how it’s written to avoid the ick factor. Well guess what? This has ALL THE ICK. Chara was already shelved for me but… god. Not shelving, throwing it in the darkest pit of my basement shelves. *shudder*

‼️**If I was right about how young the boy looked, it was totally inappropriate, and even if the pretty thing was actually legal— No, I couldn’t let myself entertain that kind of thought. Jackie laughed, shaking his head at whatever he saw on my face. “Well, if not him, then someone who can actually give you consent, then. You’ve seriously got to loosen up about your preferences, you know? You like them submissive, young, and pretty.”‼️

I seriously want to hurl. 😖

✔️The Outreach- J.M Dabney & Sammi Cee- solid 4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Cute and sweet and a lil emotional and sexy. Just an all around solid read.

✔️Someone To Call Me Daddy- Siobhan Smile- 4.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Soooo sweet and sexy and just lovely

✔️Their New Daddy- Maggie Ryan (MMF)- 2⭐️⭐️ uhhhh… first of all, we don’t use the word “clean” anymore when talking about our STI/HIV status. God I hate MF authors. Also, “penis” “boobies” “buttocks” “bottom hole” “kitty” “anus”…. NONE OF THESE ARE SEXY WORDS. Are we 5?! And it’s not the littles using those words, it’s the Daddy! Also, they discussed their test results, but he still wore a condom when he fucked the boy. 🙄 MF writers need an education and also… please stay away from MM. kthxbyeee

✔️Her Domineering Daddies (MMF)- Adaline Raine- 2 ⭐️⭐️ this story was just a mess. Too much talking and spanking. The actual threesome was about two paragraphs at the very end. Two MC’s weren’t very likable. Meh.

✔️Found In The Woods- Reese Morrison (M/FTM)- 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolute perfection. Everything I want in a story, characters, sex…. Just perfect.

✔️Two Daddies for Henry- TL Travis (MMM)- 1.5 ⭐️ if you want a story about a guy’s ailing and aging mom and long drawn out explanations and dialogue with very little relationship development among the three MC’s, this is the story for you.

✔️Huggable Daddy- No stars. Not even going to attempt to read it after the trauma of reading about the cum stuffie from this author in last year’s anthology 🤢🤢🤢

✔️Gullah Daddy- PD Carter-
2.5 ⭐️⭐️ Needs some serious editing. The actual first penetrative sex scene was fade to black 😖 That is a cardinal rule you don’t break in this genre. And like last year’s story by this author, there was huge potential and decent storytelling but this isn’t Daddy kink and the sex sucks. The recipes at the end were fun though.

✔️The Unbreakup (MMF)- Chloe Lynn Ellis- 3.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Considering my track record with terrible MMF novellas and shorts, this one was fairly solid. I just wish it didn’t end without some sort of conclusion. The sex was hot.

✔️The Story of Danny Rose (MM)- Cara Dee- 4⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Nearly perfect. Less military talk and at least one more sex scene. There was only one and it was just ok, not to mention no lube. Ugh. And the time jump epilogue’s told us nothing lol. Don’t do that unless you’re going to actually tell us what’s happening in their lives at that point. Buttttt the Tenley Twins. Time to read their novella and book again.

✔️Love Me Again- Colette Davison (MM)- 2⭐️⭐️ I actually DNF’d this. It’s very formulaic and inorganic. Which coming from Colette is kind of surprising. I expected more. It started with some drama and heart and it just… fell into xyz Daddy stuff. Just meh.

[Pingmg · Rating 4 out of 5]

My favorite was The Story of Danny Rose by Cara Dee, though the others were just as great! Love this selection of authors!

[Anna]

Out of the three editions of this anthology, this has the most average stories for me. There were a few I didn't like and a handful that were almost favorites, but nothing so bad I DNF'd or so good I would reread (maybe with the exception of Reese Morrison's but even that one wasn't one of my favorites of theirs). This was is desperately missing a sapphic story though and some fucking diversity. Reese Morrison can't carry the diversity quota on their back. Out of THIRTEEN stories, there is ONE story with a trans character (reese morrison), TWO stories with BIPOC characters, TWO stories with fat characters, ONE story where both MC's are over 40, the only stories with bi/pan rep were the MMF ones (SO THREE), and only ONE had explicit neurodivergence rep and that was in a secondary character (also reese morrison). I KNOW these authors can do better. I was also missing a story from Nora Phoenix and Della Cain though I am so relieved Pepper North was not a part of this year's round up.

So if you'd like to skip all my individual reviews, I'll list the handful I think are worth your time directly below:
Found the Woods by Reese Morrison
The Outreach by J.M Dabney and Sammi Cee
The Story of Danny Rose by Cara Dee (MM)
The Unbreakup by Chloe Lynn Ellis (MMF)

Ones to definitely skip:
Huggable Daddy by Aster Rae (problematic and bad)
Her Domineering Daddies by Adaline Raine (problematic and bad)
Two Daddies For Henry A Daddies and Littles Story by TL Travis (not problematic just not good)


DADDY'S LITTLE SUNSHINE BY M.A. INNES: I feel like this could have been cute but I don't remember a single point in this hundred page story where the Little MC had an adult mindset. And like I'm not going to kink shame because that's not what we do here but personally, I would have liked to see more of his adult personality as well and no more about him besides the most basic of basic Little things. Also we don't know anything about the daddy either besides the fact that he's a delivery driver for a frozen food company. The timing is weird, the daddy has no idea about any of this kink stuff but he does some research and just kind of gets talked into it. And like I don't mean that in a way that he did it unwillingly because he definitely wanted to and consented and everything but I feel like they should have had an actual adult conversation about limits and what it means instead of this weird kind of almost manipulative style of doing it in a Little headspace. Age play, daddy/boy(princess), no abdl.

IN DADDY'S CARE BY CHARA CROFT: this one was good. It is very sex focused but not in a bad way necessarily. I really appreciated that though both of the MC's weren't super familiar with kink and BDSM, they both still knew what they wanted and they also had someone in their lives who helped make sure that consent was prioritized and they both understood and knew what safe words were and how to use them etc. Daddy/boy, size difference, no age play, billionaire helps vibe

THE OUTREACH - A COLD CASE UNIT SHORT BY J.M. DABNEY AND SAMMI CEE: I really really liked this one. It's so refreshing to see a daddy/boy pairing where they're both middle-aged. And this one the daddy is 55 and the boys 43. They are both fully grown adults with backstories and baggage and trauma in this book really highlights that they are individual people who end up benefiting from this specific dynamic. Wyatt is a police captain who is recently divorced and Cass is a therapist who lost his husband. They both have a lot of grief and trauma to work through and I appreciated that this book gave them the chance to do that. There's only one explicit scene and the rest is focused on showcasing the two characters. We also have great fat representation for the daddy it's not really discussed it's just his body is described and that's that. Which was so wonderful to be honest. I have a feeling this will end up being one of my favorites from the anthology. 55/43 ages, Fat Daddy, daddy/boy, no age play, grief and moving forward as themes.

SOMEONE TO CALL ME DADDY BY SIOBHAN SMILE: Siobhan Smile is a hit or miss author for me. Their story in the first dirty Daddy's pride was one of my favorites but their story last year was not that great. This one was fairly good but I still had some issues. It kind of gave off similar energy to their standalone book called Little Love which I had huge issues with because it really read as coercion to me. This one is a bit different and that there is a little bit more discussion about consent but it still starts with a dominant main character essentially claiming a submissive and going after them no matter what. At least in this one both characters understood kink and BDSM and knew what they wanted and I do think that the older submissive was given a little bit more freedom to take his time whereas in Little Love the dominant essentially takes over her little's life. And I realize it's not necessarily fair to compare the short story to a book that this author released years ago but there were still some similarities. Things that I loved were the body representation and the flipping of common or stereotypical kink roles. We have a bratty dominant young daddy who is in his late twenties and then we have a shy older boy in his mid '40s coming out of a borderline abusive and definitely toxic marriage. There's also some body diversity and that the older MC is described multiple times as having a nice round belly and so I'm claiming him as fat. So my TLDR is that this was good but could have been better with just a few self-aware sentences about pressure and limits.

THEIR NEW DADDY BY MAGGIE RYAN (MMF): this could have been good with just an extra page or two of explanations. I couldn't get over how you don't know anything about the daddy whatsoever besides he's in this club after close for some reason and apparently is the boss of something but doesn't own it. I'm assuming he's some sort of head of security but that doesn't make sense either because then they would have done a check before 2 hours past closing and he would have known that there were people there. The whole story starts out with him hearing a sound hours after the club has closed and finding these two littles in precarious positions in one of the rooms. He essentially claims the littles and after making sure they're okay, takes them home, punishes them, and then f**** them and then says they're in a relationship. I don't know it was odd and definitely didn't have the level of communication about limits and boundaries as I would like. I also am not a fan of the word choices the author used to describe body parts. The one character's vagina is exclusively referred to as her kitty, all of the assholes are referred to as rectums or bottomholes, and that's just the start. Like it's not cute it's weird. And it should be said that there is a discussion of safe words and consent but it's all done after the daddy has already kind of staked his claim and that was weird for me. It felt a bit uncomfy and like trying to discuss limits in the middle of a scene.

HER DOMINEERING DADDIES BY ADALINE RAINE: I didn't like this one. There are no explanations to who these characters are or why they're in a relationship or how they know each other and there's a lot of odd communication styles and punishment for stupid things that didn't make sense. The premise could have been good but this is my least favorite so far.

FOUND IN THE WOODS BY REESE MORRISON: So obviously I was going to love this there was no doubt in my mind and I did. It is a story about a recently divorced single dad taking his two kids on a camping trip but he does not have enough camping knowledge for this. So when a hot clearly gay nearly naked twink shows up to help set up the tent he takes him up on that. Very quickly James and Elio discovered their mutual attraction and decide to have some fun during this camping trip. Some of my favorite things about this story though are the connection Elio has/builds with James's kids and all of the family bonding that they do. I will also always be here for books that flip roles on their heads and having an older daddy sub with a dominant boy was really fun. Elio is also trans and there is also secondary queer rep that is more fun if you read it in the story.

TWO DADDIES FOR HENRY BY TL TRAVIS: this dynamic was too complicated to be a short story. The first half of this is spent with one of the main characters learning that his mom needs to go into a care facility and his best friend to helping him through that. Then the two of them run into the other main character who owns a bookshop and his dad is at the same care facility that they just brought the other MC's mom too. So we have two best friends who one of them has been in love with the other for like 20 years but hasn't said anything because he's a daddy and his friend is also leaning towards being a daddy but is unfamiliar with kink. Then there's a little of the group who is always looking for a daddy but can't find one yet immediately agrees to be in a relationship with these two guys. I think one of the biggest downfalls of this is that even though I love when stories have more plot to them than just sex, the first part of the story did not need to be so detailed about the one MC's mom. It was just unnecessary and I would have rather had it be spent with the three of them as a couple instead. I also think that the entire age play concept was completely glossed over. There's also the weird thing where when Henry is in little space he refers to himself In third person and then the daddies did the same thing and it was so weird. Like sometimes I understand that a daddy will refer to himself as daddy in a situation but the fact that all three of them did that instead of just saying you me or us was wild. I don't know maybe this could have been good if it was a full length book but as it is it was not good. It's not necessarily problematic it was just not good.

HUGGABLE DADDY BY ASTER RAE: I have a very strong feeling that I'm going to DNF this because I just don't like this author. I am going to attempt to start it and we'll see how far I get. The rest of these I've given reviews after the fact but that's what I think I'm going to make comments as I read cuz I just know it's going to be something else.

-Oh boy. One of the main characters is a multi-millionaire and refers to his staff as his servants. This is not going well.

-Cameras all over the apartment? That is wild. The daddy main character has got some baggage because his ex told him that he hurt his feelings even though he didn't and now he's obsessed with recording all of his behavior so that no one can ever say he did something he didn't. Sounds a little bit sketchy but whatever.

-The servants get the little ready for playtime?!? What the fuck? This is some insane level of employment issues and HR complaints that definitely constitute sexual harassment but also you're telling me that the little would be excited about this? I can't.

-The daddy just got up in arms because one of his servants gave the little silver silverware instead of plastic silverware and legitimately says that that's a fireable offense. Why am I still reading this?

-The so-called Daddy just said that he wants to teach the little ex Daddy a deadly lesson. Deadly. Follows up by saying that he's not an aggressive person. Like my man, you just threaten to kill someone.

-I was going to try and explain the absolute absurdity of this but I'm actually just going to put quote in. I cannot. "You come so much." "I always do," Leaf growls, gripping the back of my head. "That’s something you should know about me—I’m a squirter. A mighty sniper. The men the military trains to take out terrorists in Afghanistan don't have shit on me."

-"I make my dick twitch. It’s something all men instinctively know how to do—I flex it, which makes it spasm upward." WHAT

--Well I finished it. I genuinely did not think I would and it was definitely not good. The sex scenes are absolutely ridiculous and over the top and the characters are problematic and codependent yet there are also great snippets about consent thrown in there. It's absolutely wild. Would not recommend.

GULLAH DADDY BY P.D. CARTER: we'll see how far I get in this one as well. I have DNF this author's last two stories in the dirty Daddy's pride anthologies because of the use of the term gold star gay man but I did a search for the term and it's not included so fingers crossed. The bar is exceptionally low right now.

This was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. It's pleasantly surprised to not have any misogyny that was present in this author's last two stories that I DNF'd. This was fine. Unfortunately it fell into the trap of spending too long at the beginning and not enough time with the actual couple. I'm probably going to forget about it by the time I finish this anthology.

THE UNBREAKUP BY CHLOE LYNN ELLIS: this one was very hot. It's definitely the most explicit so far and that there is probably 80% of the story is a drawn out sex scene but honestly it works. Usually when this happens I feel like I don't know the characters enough but that wasn't the case here. I'm also such a sucker for stories where people realize that monogamy isn't for everyone and that it's really difficult to have one person who meets all of your needs. Overall very good. We've got a a couple who is struggling and neither one of them want to break up because they genuinely love each other but they know that they both need something more. And then we have a pansexual Daddy who comes in to save the day. So this book has both bisexual and pansexual representation which was great.

THE STORY OF DANNY ROSE BY CARA DEE: this was a great balance of plot and kink and relationship. I'm not really a military romance person but I was here for it.

LOVE ME AGAIN BY COLETTE DAVISON: this was a solid one. It starts with a prologue where we see these two main characters in their last year of high school and then the first chapter starts five years later. I love a second chance romance and this one was well done. I would have liked more conversation and less sex but whatever

note: I've decided to track each story as it's own book for my own personal tracking, and the only way to do that and have my number match my goodreads is to say I've read this 13 times. I haven't. I won't. But I do need my numbers to match so there's that.

I did it. I finally finished one of these cover to cover.

[Lori · Rating 5 out of 5]

My review is for Love Me Again by Colette Davison. It's a Daddy kink story with the following elements: Second chance romance, A meet-cute in a familiar setting, Size difference, Jock/nerd, A boy who's a total cum sl*t, Orgasm control. I loved this story so much! The beginning made me sad, but Tanner and Wrens second shot at reconnecting together was so hot and so sweet that I was swooning by the end. Colette is the queen of sweet and steamy, and this is the perfect depiction of why. I loved where they met and the mention of some of my favorite characters from one of my favorite series of hers, which was lots of fun. Definitely recommend!

•daddy’s little sunshine by M.A.Innes (MM) (⭐️4)

It was really fluffy and cute but It was almost too sweet for me. It’s just my personal opinion but I liked how well Tate adapted to the new situation and tried his best to get into the daddy role what Addison needed.
—————————————————————————————
•in daddy’s care by Chara Croft (MM) (⭐️5)

OMG i enjoyed this one so so so much!! It was funny, kinky, hot and steamy I absolutely adored the MCs Dash and Callum so much but Callmus nephew Jackie also hint me rolling this boy was so unhinged 💀😂.
But back to Dash and Callum …Dash story got my heart arching, his family was treating him shitty and since every he longed for a daddy who would care and love him but also posses him, make him feel as he is absolutely his. And Callum looked since ages for a boy who is obedient and where he could leave out his possessive and dominate nature. Well they found each ihrer! their dynamic was so perfect and their kinky scenes even better, they both really got me hooked reading their story in one sitting. I was so sat when it was over I really wanted a full length novella😭💔

yesss finally a younger daddy and older boy dynamic! I love this! It was also hilarious to see how bratty Stanton (the daddy in this dynamic) was, there are several scenes where I really had to snored because this man was so over the top haha. Nevertheless he worked out really well with Brian who was all insecure and shy they did well together in finding each other.

Oh wow this one really surprised me! I was expecting something else but this one really didn’t let me down! Elio and James had from their first time seeing each other an immediately connection. I loved that Elio was in charge all the times he knew how to play with James and pushes the buttons of his daddy. He helped James to discover new sites of himself and it was so beautifully done because Elio just new what his daddy needed. Their sex was so kinky and hot I adored it so much!
It was also nice to read that James didn’t much care what parts Elio had down there because he took him as he was and that’s how it should be!
I also have to talk about James kids, usually I’m so annoyed when book have kids in it but James kids were awesome I loved the scenes with them especially because Elio was so much involved with them and It was beautiful to read how they all worked out so well.

I loved both MCs character development and their daddy/boy dynamic was so precious I adored it so much. There was only tenderness and devotion for each other. Would have loved to read more about them🥹

⭐⭐⭐ Daddy's Little Sunshine (MA Innes) MM

I've read quite a few of Innes books now, and this one was similar to the others. It was really sweet, almost too much at times. I think Daddy was said or thought at least a million times. I didn't feel like there was much of a story other than Addison liking cookies and chicken nuggets, and teaching his Daddy how to be one. So it was cute, but also kind of boring.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ In Daddy's Care (Chara Croft) MM

I LOVED this story! It has age gap, a rich daddy taking in a down-on-his-luck boy, c*ck cages, lots of praise and great dirty talk. It was really steamy and well written, and I wish it was a full length novel because I want more of Dash and Callum! Cal's nephew Jackson was also a fun side character.

The Outreach (JM Dabney & Sammi Cee) MM

Someone To Call Me Daddy (Siobhan Smith) MM

⭐⭐ Their New Daddy (Maggie Ryan) MMF

I've read a few MMF books before, but not ever one with a Little Girl. I have to say, it's not really my favorite. DD/lb is one of my favorite tropes, but DD/lg is not my kink whatsoever. I liked the discipline, but that was about it. Everything was insta & very fast; which, I get, its a novella. But it's just not enjoyable to me when it's so rushed with no real explanation to make it seem even remotely believable.

And the language used really made me cringe. It's totally normal to have special language for things with Littles, but I was NOT a fan of some of the terms used whatsoever.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Story of Danny Rose (Cara Dee) MM

I picked up this anthology mostly for this story. Cara is my favorite MM author, and I read absolutely everything she writes. Her daddy/boy stories are my absolute favorite so this was an easy sell for me.

In this story, we get Danny and Emerson. Since it's a short novella we don't get anything deep or a lot of character development that Cara does so well. Things definitely happen fast though at least they have a past. We get DD/lb and some steam. And we get young Tenley twins. Anytime we get the Tenleys I'm happy.

Love Me Again (Colette Davison) MM

[Laura · Rating 5 out of 5]

I received an advance copy of Found in the Woods by Reese Morrison from the author for review purposes; this in no way influences my review.

Reese’s stories are always such a delight, and Found in the Woods did not disappoint! It’s a short novella where a recently divorced father of two takes his kids camping, and while there meets a younger man who not only dazzles the kids, but sweeps James up entirely. I loved Elio and James’ dynamic so much, and I especially enjoyed that James is one the getting called Daddy while being the submissive partner; it is such a twist on roles and it worked well. I also loved the family domestic scenes and the love so evident between all the characters. All around this perfectly hit a sweet spot!

[ML · Rating 5 out of 5]

I bought this anthology just for Cara Dee’s short and it did not disappoint. It packed a punch in such a small amount of time. Reese and River make cameos as well.

Danny and Em have a very different meet cute than most. Their chemistry was strong and burned up the page. Wowser. AND Cara is the master of the dirty talking MC! I’m looking forward to more stories in this universe! This was a great start.

Reviewing Love me again by Colette Davison.
It's a second chance, jock/nerd, size difference and daddy/boy romance. Rugby player Tanner and nerd Wren dated for a while during college but had a difficult breakup when Tanner wasn't willing to come out yet. Fast forward five years and they meet in a kink club by chance. They get talking and realise that they still have a deep connection and chemistry and that's the start of their relationship. This was a seriously hot read but yet very sweet too. I really good reading it 💜

Her Domineering Daddies by Adaline Raine. This follows Monica, Trey and Sam. It is a wonderful feel good read with realistic issues and feelings. It was amazing how this trio came together.
Their New Daddy by Maggie Ryan

Sammy and Maxie finally find a Daddy that wants them both. Jackson is the Daddy who fit their needs and sees to their safety. This is a fantastic shorter insta love age play romance.

I was given ‘Found In the Woods’ by Reese Morrison from this anthology to read for an honest review afterwards. I was a little unsure at first because I thought it would be an insta-love kinda read but it really wasn’t—sure Elio & James were attracted immediately to each other but the story seemed to take time to develop which I loved! Definitely a must-read from this collection—as I’m sure all will be after seeing the lineup!

Love Me Again was an amazing second chance novella, seeing Tanner and Wren reconnect and explore a new dynamic was beautiful and I loved their story!

I really enjoyed their little meet-cute and where it took place! It was clear from the start that they still had feelings for each other, and I loved the way they talked things through. Tanner was such a sweet and thoughtful Daddy, taking care of Wren from the moment they met again. It was sweet to see their dynamic starting to form, and Wren figuring out how much control he wanted to give Tanner.

The kink was wonderfully written and really brought some steam! I love the way Colette Davison writes the kink in her stories; the love and care the characters have for each other is always palpable in her scenes.

Love Me Again was just such a sweet and steamy novella, and if you’re into Daddy kink and second chance romances you should definitely check it out!

I've only read Two Daddies For Henry By TL Travis (MMM) from this 13 stories collection!

I read this story as it immediately caught my eye, especially as the daddies are together too (my catnip lol). I may or may not read the other, depends on my mood! Maybe someday 😉.

Henry has a bookshop (my kinda people) & is a little whose always wanted his forever daddy but no one stays.
Jensen & Mitchell are long-time friends, Jensen has always loved Mitchell but he never thought he can get the affection back. These two are adorable though being so close yet not MORE breaks Jen's heart.

The 3's worlds collide when J & M meet Henry in his bookshop, then again in the nursing home where Henry's dad is & Mitchell's mom is newly admitted due to mental disorders.

H gets Mitch curious about the kink world & Jen introduces Mitch to the world of Daddy/little, that was a fun scene. The meet in kink club, Jen's confession & the eventual 3some scenes are so good & sexy!

We see the start of these 3's relation, I rooted for the couple & enjoyed the story. This can be a good full-length book too.

(The whole review written from what I remember by reading it almost a month ago, Yes I'm reviewing late)

Review for Found in the Woods by Reese Morrison:

This one was so sweet and so sexy. I adored Elio from the second he stepped into the page. A chance encounter with James leads both of them down a path that ends with a sweet HEA.

I loved how accepting James was of his children and their different needs. He was attentive and willing to do whatever it took to have them find happiness. Elio was like this sexy ray of sunshine wrapped up in dommy vibes and I was here for it. I absolutely loved this.


I will definitely be reading other stories in this anthology!

[Joy Westerfield · Rating 5 out of 5]

I’m a lover of anthologies and especially this one. I enjoy finding new authors to read and new stories by my favorite authors!

One that I thoroughly enjoyed was Her Domineering Daddies by Adaline Raine. Monica and Trey are in a relationship that seems to have hit a rut. Monica tries what she can to get Trey, her “Daddy” to notice her again. Could it be possible that when Sam comes into their lives, that he could be the one to help them? Sam is definitely attracted to both and wants to take care of them. Can these three become one? Monica is sassy and sweet, Trey is alpha with a submissive side, and Sam is all domineering and delicious. I truly enjoyed this delightful story and would love to read more about these three!

[Smut Librarian · Rating 5 out of 5]

I received an ARC for In Daddy's Care by Chara Croft in return for an honest review.
Miss Chara brings us a beautifully needy virgin who practically falls into the lap of an older Daddy (20+ age gap) who, with the 'encouragement' of his feisty nephew is finally acknowledging his need for full control in his relationship.
The result is an achingly sweet and steamy story that's HARD to put down!

[Bella · Rating 5 out of 5]

My review is on Her Domineering Daddies by Adaline Raine. This story might be a short story but there is not a shortage of emotion! This story has it all…angst, love, passion and three very lucky people who finally realize they were meant to be together. I enjoyed this story very much. It is well written and flows well. The characters are interesting.

[Leann McKay · Rating 5 out of 5]

So much variety

This Daddy book has something for everyone. Loads of smexy times….loads of acceptance…..loads of feelings…just wow! Ive read most and a few were just not my cup of kink but others were just amazing.
The trouple stories were my favorite ones. Their new daddy was sweet and funny and oh boy did those two need a keeper but dang did they have fun together! Then the story on the island was just sweet and overwhelming and oh so smexy. Again hard to not find at least one story to enjoy in this series!

[Cat · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another Dirty Daddies Anthology for our summer time fun.
This review is for Adaline Raine's Her Domineering Daddies from the Daddies of Falcon Creek series.
A relationship on the rocks. A daddy who isn't doing his job. A brat trying to push all the buttons to get the attention she craves, and Sam, the dominant sheriff who will finally give them all what they want but are afraid to ask for, a Daddy for Trey and Monica.
Come back to Falcon Creek to see how it all works out.

I mean I pretty much grabbed this for Cara Dee's contribution but I'd did read a few others...a couple were 5 stars and some were 1 star or dnf so overall I gave this anthology a 3!!

[Rachwithheadinabook · Rating 4 out of 5]

Every year I wait in anticipation for this anthology and this years offering and collection of authors do not disappoint. There is a Daddy for every type of boy, princess, little and sunshine for every taste. I recommend buying and reading this anthology to everyone.

J'étais si intelligent.
Et sournois.

Et j'allais être le soleil de papa pour toujours et à jamais, même quand j'étais prétentieuse et que je rendais papa fou.

Parce qu’il m’aimait et je l’aimais.

📜 In Daddy’s Care By Chara Croft (MM)
⭐⭐⭐⭐
« Oui, papa », ai-je haleté. « Tout. Tout le temps. S’il te plaît . »

La lueur taquine dans ses yeux se transforma en quelque chose de plus chaud. « Tout le temps ? »

"Oui papa."

Il me regarda comme s'il essayait de voir dans mon âme. « Je ne pense pas que tu comprennes à quel point je veux… te posséder. À quel point je veux avoir le contrôle sur toi. »

« Je le veux. » J’espérais que oui. « Je le veux aussi. S’il te plaît, fais-le. Tout ce que tu veux, papa. N’importe quand. Tout le temps. Tout ce que tu veux. Je suis… je suis à toi. »

Ses yeux se posèrent sur ma bouche. « Puis-je… »

" Oui ."

Son rire était sombre et excitant, et quand ses yeux se posèrent de nouveau sur les miens, j'eus l'impression qu'ils me transperçaient. « Fais attention, ma jolie chérie. Tu ne sais pas ce que je te demande. »

« Mais je dis que tu n'en as pas besoin, » dis-je à bout de souffle, m'enroulant autour de lui du mieux que je pouvais, clouée au sol et maintenue en place comme il me tenait. « C'est... c'est ce que tu veux, n'est-ce pas ? Et moi aussi. Je suis à toi . Et tu te souviens de ces mots de sécurité ? Tu n'as jamais besoin de demander parce que tu peux me faire confiance pour, euh, te dire d'arrêter de cette façon si jamais j'en ai besoin. »

Il m'a regardé fixement pendant ce qui m'a semblé une éternité. Puis il a dit : « Rouge, ça veut dire stop. »

J'ai hoché la tête. « Comme les feux de signalisation. »

Puis il a finalement souri à nouveau, un sourire méchant, méchant qui m'aurait fait jouir sur place si j'avais pu.

Stanton__
Je n'étais pas connue pour mon contrôle des impulsions. Étant enfant unique et meilleure amie de ma mère, on ne me disait pas souvent non. Une nuit, tout a changé : j'ai rencontré un inconnu qui travaillait pour l'entreprise de ma famille. Un baiser et le bel homme était parti, je n'avais pas arrêté jusqu'à ce que je le trouve. Le vrai défi est venu quand il m'a refusée à cause de mon âge, mais pour moi, cela n'avait pas d'importance. C'était mon garçon et je le lui prouverais.

Après un divorce horrible, j'essayais juste d'apprendre à vivre à nouveau seule. J'avais craqué émotionnellement devant la maison de mon patron et un magnifique jeune homme m'avait embrassée. Le choc m'a fait fuir. Je ne m'attendais pas à le revoir, mais il est arrivé et avec une telle confiance qu'il a affirmé que j'étais à lui. Il ne pouvait pas être sérieux. Pourtant, plus je passais de temps avec lui, plus l'attirance devenait dévorante et les raisons de dire non devenaient sans importance. Pouvais-je m'ouvrir à cette possibilité ou serait-il plus prudent de me protéger d'une autre erreur?

Beaucoup de description superflu, donc beaucoup de lenteur dans le dénouement de l'intrigue.
Mais la relation de nos personnages est beaucoup trop rapide à mon goût. Pas le temps de l'apprécier.

«Allume les lumières avant de descendre pour que les secouristes n'aient pas à traverser le club dans le noir. »

« Ok. Euh, quand j'ai dit que Maxie était ma partenaire, je voulais dire que nous travaillions ensemble, pas qu'elle était ma petite amie ou quoi que ce soit. Juste ma meilleure amie. »

« C'est bon », a dit Jackson. « Nous pourrons parler de relations plus tard. Les ambulanciers devraient bientôt arriver. Allez-y maintenant. »

« Oui, monsieur, dit-il en s'accroupissant à côté de Max, et bien que sa main flottait au-dessus de son visage, il ne la toucha pas. Tiens bon, Maxie. Papa te tient. »

Cette déclaration sembla avoir un effet sur les deux personnes restées dans la pièce. Les lèvres de Maxie se retroussèrent légèrement, bien que ses yeux restèrent fermés, et Jackson sentit une chaleur le traverser. Il ne s'attendait pas à être le papa de qui que ce soit, mais il ne s'attendait pas à rencontrer deux petits qui en avaient manifestement autant besoin que ces deux-là.

.

« Non, c'est juste... wow, tu es vraiment grand, n'est-ce pas ? »
« Peut-être que tu es juste très petite », rétorqua-t-il en commençant à enfiler une basket sur son pied gauche.
« Non, je suis peut-être petite, mais je ne suis pas si petite que ça », dit Maxine. « Mais toi… tu es comme un géant. »

« Qui a vraiment des mains énormes », a dit Sammy, en donnant son avis. « Tu sais ce que ça veut dire. »
« Sammy ! » hurla Maxine, le visage inondé de rouge tandis que ses yeux se fixaient sur l'entrejambe du jean de Jackson.
« Je parlais de fessée ! » jura Sammy, son visage devenant aussi rouge que celui de Maxie.

Jackson se contenta de rire, de nouer le dernier lacet et de l'aider à se relever. Leur offrant à chacun une main dans laquelle ils glissaient la leur, le trio quitta l'hôpital, impatient de voir ce que l'avenir leur réservait.

Yay!!! Another Dirty Daddies Anthology. I love these so much. I had to grab them when they came out. So many good reads packed inside. I’ll add to this as I read the different stories.
Daddies Little Sunshine by M. A. Innes was amazing. Addison is the sweetest most adorable little. I hope he meets some of my favorite characters when he goes to college. Tate owned being a Daddy. Sweet and not too stern, he guided Addison perfectly. He is definitely my kind of Daddy.

In Daddy’s Care by Chara Croft was awesome. Dash is such a sweetheart. I’m glad we didn’t see much of his mom and her boyfriend. I couldn’t stand them. Callum is just the man to treat Dash the way he deserves. And thanks to his ever helpful and majorly awesome nephew Jackie, Callum learns he can want what he wants. This was a beautiful read.

The Outreach A Cold Case Unit short by J.M. Dabney and Sammi Cee
This was so good. While I didn’t feel it was necessary to have read the other stories in the series this is connected to, which I haven’t yet, I am now intrigued and have already added them to my tbr.
Someone To Call Me Daddy by Siobhan Smile
This was a cute read. I liked that the Daddy was younger and small build to his boy. There were some editing issues but they didn’t affect the story.

Their New Daddy by Maggie Ryan
Now this was totally adorable. Sammy and Maxie are the cutest littles. Thankfully they found the best Daddy for them.

Her Domineering Daddies by Adaline Raine
This intrigued me. It made me want to find the other Falcon Creek stories. I love when that happens.

Found In The Woods by Reese Morrison
Wow! This was so good. It’s amazing to see the difference a decade makes in how society was and is. Being ten years older than James I’ve gotten to see the changes but this put it on a more personal level. Wonderfully done.

Two Daddies for Harry by TL Travis
My heart went out to these guys. They needed each other so much. I would love to see a longer more complex version of their story.

Huggable Daddy by Aster Rae
This was a cute fun read. It was so nice to see them help each other over their past relationships.

Gullah Daddy by p. D. Carter
There was so much I lurked about this. The beginning threw me at first and then it just flowed. I knew some but it had me do a deep dive in the history and up to present day. Truly enjoyed both the story and learning more.

The Unbreakup by Chloe Lynn Ellis
This was one of the hottest reads I’ve read in a while. It may all happen in one day but you know it’s going to be forever.

The Story of Danny Rose by Cara Dee
It takes skill to express so much while not saying a lot. Cara Dee excels at this. So much feeling and to think about here. Though the punch wasn’t as hard as some of her other work it still gives you the feels you’ve come to expect.

Love Me Again by Colette Davison
What a way to finish out the anthology. A beautiful second chance with your first love. And if you’ve read her My Kinky Roommates series you’ll love the familiar things in here.
This was a wonderful collection of stories. I highly recommend them. Filled with sweet, funny, and sexy reads, I’m sure there is something for all Daddy lovers.

Daddy’s Little Sunshine by M.A. Innes
3.5 out of 5 stars

Addison is getting ready to move and go back to college. He will have to leave his delivery driver, Tate, behind. He works up enough nerve to ask Tate on a date after revealing that he is a Little. Tate does not know anything about being a Daddy but will do anything for Addison. This was really sweet but since it was a short story it felt a little superficial. I didn’t feel like I knew much about either character and definitely would have liked to have seen them in the future (i.e. an epilogue). What happens when Addison goes to college? What does he study? Does he continue to make his tables? Lots of unanswered questions.

I received an ARC of this short story for an honest review



In Daddy’s Care by Chara Croft
5 out of 5 stars

Dashiell Davis has been kicked out of his home for being gay. Callum Moore is an older business man who has been denying his true desires for years. When fate throws these two together, it turns out to be a match. What Callum desires is what Dash needs. I loved Jackie and would not be opposed to seeing a book about him. I love how he helped Dash realize it was okay to go for what he wanted. For such a short story this was very well done. I love Chara’s Daddy/boy stories and this was another winner for me. It was hot, sweet, loving, and gave me enough to trust that these two have a HEA. I am a little greedy and wouldn’t mind seeing more of these two in the future.

The Outreach- A Cold Case Unit Short by J.M. Dabney and Sammi Cee
3 out of 5 stars

Wyatt, Cold Case and Homicide Captain, decides to volunteer for the Outreach center after his recent divorce. While there, he meets Cass who is still grieving his husband. These two embark on a Daddy/boy relationship. I did like these two as a couple, but it felt a little rushed. I think this would have been better as a novel to explore some different plot lines. I was intrigued enough to check out some other stories by these authors.


Someone to Call Me Daddy by Siobhan Smile
4 out of 5 stars

Stanton meets older boy Brian at a party and is determined to make him his. I really loved how Daddy Stanton pursued Brian who had been hurting from his divorce. They fit together really well and the story felt complete. I was wondering about Clark, Stanton’s friend, who was dating Brian’s ex. Is he the one that the ex was cheating with? I think that should have been addressed a little more. Other than that, I really loved this story.

James takes his kids camping after his divorce on their first family vacation. While there he meets Dominant Elio (FTM). I absolutely adore how this played on the Daddy/boy idea with switching up the names. Elio called James “Daddy” even though Elio was the one clearly in charge. I love how Elio built relationships with Mikey and Dana (James’ kids) that felt real and not just as a way to get closer to James. This was such a well-done story. The storytelling was amazing and I didn’t feel like anything was lost. The relationship developed and built over time and then the epilogue just cemented these two. Loved it!

Two Daddies for Henry: A Daddies and Littles Story by T.L. Travis

This one did not work for me. I really didn’t feel a connection between the characters–even Jensen and Mitchell who had been friends for a long time and had feelings for each other. It was way too fast for me.


Huggable Daddy by Aster Rae
2 out of 5 stars

Leaf and Cody meet at a club, both of them hurting from previous relationships. The beginning was sweet, but I found Leaf’s insistence on recording all of their interactions for “safety” slightly weird. This all stems from the fact that his former boy called him ‘mean’ and that Leaf hurt ‘his feelings’. Not for me.



Gullah Daddy by P.D. Carter
3 out of 5 stars


After being dumped after graduation, Hayes returns home to live with his mother. She soon volunteers him to help Sterling with the Gullah Gala. They fall into a relationship that bordered a little on instalust/love. I needed a little more to see the connection they felt. I did like reading about the Gullah traditions.

The epilogue of this one saved it for me. I wasn’t really sure what to make of Emerson from the first few chapters and his 180 on Danny gave me whiplash. I really did like Danny Rose though and seeing the Tenley twins is always a good time.


Love Me Again by Colette Davison
3.5 out of 5 stars

I love a good second chance romance and this one was sweet. A little rushed in how they came back together but very, very adorable. Wren and Tanner worked well together.
