Secrets, lies, blackmail, fame, celebrity and scandals mark the Unresolved Daddy Issues series.
Rising movie star Jett Coretti has everything going for him: a hot career, a huge mansion and a cute older boyfriend Chad. But Chad is keeping a secret that could potentially destroy their relationship. Meanwhile, Jett's best friend Sam is having an affair with a married Vegas hotel mogul, but when he doesn't get a commitment from him, blackmail and extortion become the name of the game. At the same time, Jett's brother, rock star Scott Coretti could have any girl he wants, but why is he drawn to his backup dancer, the Asian muscle god Braden?
Throw in a crazy starstruck stalker who wants to marry Jett and the story climaxes with exciting confrontational action.
Unresolved Daddy Issues contains all the intrigue, sex, secrets, scandals and drama of the gay equivalent of a Jackie Collins novel.

I am totally the wrong audience for this work, not being a gay male with a daddy kink. Perhaps awkward, immature, crude, repetitious, misogynistic writing with a careless disregard for POV (eg, POV changes within the same paragraph?) and tendency to fetishize non-white races is the norm or expected style of writing for this type of work but to me, it seemed like really poor writing. I was going to DNF this book indefinitely early on but kept reading out of fascination, and kept finding more fodder for the writing samples list, which can be found under the spoiler tag:
There were four parts to it book, each following a different character related to the primary one, and each ending as a sequel bait. This was a freebie from Smashwords that failed to impress me. I'm not biting.
This book was entertaining enough to keep me interested through to the end, yet not engaging enough for me to pursue the next book in the series.
The Good:
Creative backstories and personalities for each of the main characters, as well as the objects of their affection. Nice use of vignettes to show related stories of interconnected characters around the country. Good cliffhanger ending.
The Bad:
Not much really. Some of the sexual language made me roll my eyes. "Sausage" made a few appearances. "Weiner" even showed up once making me laugh. I was never enamored with any of the characters or their love stories. None of the characters was likeable enough for me to follow up on tbeir story.
Advice for Lucas:
The plot point of having a multi-million dollar hotel and casino owner worried about a blackmail threat from a 22 year old lover seems a little silly- Lucas, tell Sam you've come to your senses and have decided to be with him, no matter what...then take him on the vacation of his dreams to celebrate, somewhere exotic and private, like a yachting excursion on the Mediterranean...Meanwhile, have some trusted associates move the money in question and redistribute it in smaller increments. Have other associates frame Sam for something...like stealing from a guest at your hotel. Once you have Sam alone, get your blow job and then tell Sam he has two choices: 1. He can go back to the states quietly and he will be left alone, with all of his body parts intact, as long as he never sets foot in Nevada again. OR 2. He can return to Vegas, where he will be immediatley taken into custody and should he attempt to blackmail Lucas to the authorities, upon his investigation, they will find that his allegations are completely unfounded.
If you couldn't tell this is about characters with daddy issues, the writer will remind you it's about daddy issues in every single paragraph. The writing is very on-the-nose and didn't do it for me at all. And that is coming from a gay guy who who has a thing for daddies.
