Little Girl

Rate this book
Hired to protect the golden girl of the swimming world, we weren’t supposed to fall for her.

Sol Titan is everything perfect in this world.
She’s sunlight and happiness.
Innocence and freedom.

Everything we are not.
Everything we shouldn’t take.

But we do.
We bask in her light.
We claim her innocence.

The world doesn’t deserve her.
Hell, neither do we.
But at least we’ll spend our lives proving our love and taking care of her.

Our Little Girl isn’t ready for three Daddies, but she has no problem declaring us as her own from the minute we meet.

And when push comes to shove, we’ll protect her from everyone conspiring to steal her happiness and freedom by putting a baby in her belly and a ring on her finger.

Little Girl is an age gap, protectors-to-lovers, Little Mermaid modern-day retelling with some themes that may make you squirm. You can expect coarse language, explicit bedroom shenanigans, a hero who likes to bite, one who is more than obsessed with anal, and another who is a somnophiliac. Proceed with caution in this dark contemporary fairytale where love conquers all.

Once upon a time…
When you’re tucked into bed and looking for a fairy tale, not all of them can be glitter and gold. Sometimes you want them gritty and twisted to fulfill your deep, dark desires. This October, fifteen of your favorite authors are bringing you the Dark and Twisted Tales Series. These stories will follow you into your dreams and show you that the tales you grew up with might have had moments in the sunshine, but were borne from the darkest corners of your mind.
…they lived happily ever after.

to electively get the husband stitch and claim it’s for yourself despite your three feminist husbands saying you don’t have to is just beyond the pale. you’re 19 you need to get back to class!! also how did noble king, duke knight, and lorde prince end up at the same west virginian orphanage like what are the odds.

Sol and her Knights! 😍🥰🥵

I absolutely adore everything that KL Donn writes, she never lets me down. The characters, the plot, the story building, the relationships, the love! She always hits it out of the park for me, and Little Girl is no different.

Sol is so painfully innocent. Her vulnerability begs for her to be protected, coddled, and wrapped in the softest blanket and kept tucked safely away in the corner. That doesn’t mean she doesn’t have a spine of steel, and her men help her grow it. She truly comes to life when Noble, Lorde, and Duke come into her life. Her reflective times of silence are more important than any of her men realize, and I enjoyed her inner thoughts and musings.

Noble, Lorde, and Duke are INCREDIBLE. Hands down they have become my favorite leading men that Donn has written, and considering she wrote the Adair men and their sons that was a hard task to accomplish. The bond between them is intense and I absolutely loved every single second of it. I was not ready for just how much I loved it, but dear god, these men really are meant to be in each other’s lives. Every time I thought I figured out my favorite something new happened and I changed my mind. For the first time ever I don’t think I have a favorite leading man, and I love it!

Sol truly is the string that ties them all together, without her they wouldn’t work together as seamlessly as they do. Her unwavering love for them, they way she accepts there desires, wants, and needs so easily gives them the opportunity to flourish together and become a strong, unbreakable unit.

And as always the Epilogue(s) are AMAZING! As sad as I am to come to the end of a story from KL Donn, I know that she’ll deliver and epilogue that makes my heart happy. And this time was no different. Don’t miss this incredible story!

Little Girl was and is absolute perfection. The type of Journey that’s going to keep you on the edge of your seat anticipating what will happen from one second to the next and play on your emotions in all the best ways . Every single time I pick up one of K.L. Donn’, Books all my expectations are exceeded and I’m just completely blown away . Well this one is no different. A retelling of the Little Mermaid which just so happens to be one one of my favorite fairytales , 3 swoony bodyguards ( best friends who would do anything to protect the woman they love . And a kick@ss heroine who you want to fight for from the moment you meet her . She hasn’t always had the easiest of lives but nothing stands in her way . OMG . I seriously devoured this amazing journey so freaking fast , it was an emotional rollercoaster in every single way . Your going to find yourself completely speechless, your going to smile , your going to yell out of frustration, cry like a baby and root so so hard . But I can guarantee you’re going to need a cold shower too because man was this one steamy story 🔥 . Tropes 💜 Dark Romance, age gap , little mermaid retelling, protectors to lovers, MMMF

Holy Hotness Batman!!!!!

This is one for the scorch meter 🔥🔥🔥
But don't let the hotness fool you, this is a fantastic story!! I literally could not put it down! I absolutely love the fact that Sol (Little Girl,) knows right away that these 3 men can be trusted (Duke, Lorde and Noble). The 3 men own their own Security company take on Sol as a case. I'm not going to tell you why, read it and find out!! Oh my these men are so protective, dominant, sexy, possive and also professional.
I love the drama, suspense and angst. You get so many feels with this book!!! Reverse harem is one of my favorite troups. Seriously folks if you love sexy dominant men, whoa then this is the book for you!

Holy freaking shizzballs!! I think my kindle combusted!! I kid you not *blows on the tips of my fingers!
I love this author, to me she is the #menagequeen and this is absolute menage gold.
But it's also so much more. Sol ...... from the first moment I met her, I wanted to fight for her, protect her and then I met Noble, Duke and Lorde. Gah!!!
This author has extracted every single emotion I have and thrown them six ways Sunday! And I thank her for sharing this with us.
Go! Add this to your tbr, go one click it!! Thank me later!

I have adored this author for ages. She is one of my all time favorite authors. I tell you this so you will truly understand it when I say, she stepped it up to another level with Lorde, Noble, Duke and their girl, Sol! This was incredibly hot and gloriously spicy. The suspense swirling around Sol just added another level of intensity to the story. It made the connection between them all evolve into something I didn't anticipate and I reveled in it. I regularly reread KLD's books as they bring me so much joy and comfort. I can't wait to reread this one again and soon!

This book..........this book!!!! I was not prepared for this story. Sol and her three men were super hot and I definitely wasn't prepared for who was after her. This is one of the best books I've read recently. The drama, the mystery and danger and the steam!! Oh Lord, the steam was HIGH with these 4 but can the guys keep her safe from someone who wants her out of their way? Just go get this book!

After reading this book I had to take a little time to compose myself and get my thoughts clear in my head before I put them in a review. I loved it from start to finish there is something happening on every page that will make you read it in one sitting. This book has twists and turns you don’t know what’s happening. will they all get there happily ever after or will it all go wrong. To find out what happens go buy the book. You won’t be disappointed I wasn’t.

This is a brilliant retelling of the Little Mermaid.
Sol's life is in danger so her father hires 3 bodyguards. They are best friends but also looking for the woman they can call their own.
When they first meet Sol they know that she is the one and will do everything to protect her.
Plenty of twists and turns and the enemy is closer than they think.
A must read with plenty of drama and suspense but also so much more.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.

I really love all this author's works but this book was so hot it lit my Kindle on fire. It has a Little Mermaid vibe with lots of super steamy scenes, three protective alpha men, violence, betrayals, and an amazing HEA. Loved reading this book, though it was a little darker and steadier than the usual from this author, but that made me love it even more. Such a good read! I received a review copy of this book and am leaving a voluntary honest review.

Every aspect of this Daddy Dom-lite novella with some cute nods to The Little Mermaid was too short and underdeveloped for my tastes. Not bad ideas but I was looking for either something less insta/more fleshed out OR insta/total smut and this one was another that seems like it is trying to do both and succeeding at neither (which seems common right now so maybe it is popular with other readers and just not this one).

Gritty, raw, bisexual read that scorches the pages with so many steamy hot scenes with all four of the characters. I enjoyed the nod to the Little Mermaid throughout the book. Riveting read has suspense, danger, and unthinkable betrayal. Lorde, Duke and Noble are determined to protect Sol and have a family with their little girl.

Loosely based on the Little Mermaid, Sol Titan is a young champion swimmer who wishes that someone, anyone, would love her for her, not for her accomplishments or her family. After Sol is targeted and attacked, her father hires three bodyguards for her. These bodyguards are best friends and very close. So close that they hope to one day share one woman between them. While Sol is ten years younger than her bodyguards, she is a full grown woman. Intense heat, lust and passion swarm this group of four, along with danger, violence, betrayal and a few surprises in the storyline. This was a slightly darker story than I anticipated, but I enjoyed the book and the happily-ever-after by KL Donn.

Little Girl is one of my favorite retellings of The Little Mermaid. Sol, Duke, Noble and Lorde are a force to be reckoned with. This book is very spicy and does dive into themes that some may not find to their liking, so read at your own risk. I can't wait to see what's next.

3 daddies, 2 pet friends, and a girl who should be a mermaid.

Little Girl starts off with a bang… literally! Sol Triton, the girl who could basically be a mermaid with how fast and how much she loves to swim. When a moment of a PTSD episode hits, she runs. This retelling with Little Mermaid vibes will have you giggling, hurting and fanning yourself. The sexy times are many but the thrills are not few. All Ariel wanted was to live on land and not in the sea, but Sol can’t seem to do anything but be under three… daddies that is! Strap in cause the steam factor is off the charts!

I really liked Sol. Her heart and her soul shone through her actions. Not just as a role model for determination in succeeding after a trauma, but also for her generosity in lifting the spirits at a young girl's party

This book is super spicy!! I devoured it in one sitting. It’s a riff on the Little Mermaid with a heat level of 10. Duke, Lorde and Noble are determined to protect Sol. Danger and betrayal swirls around the group. Can they protect their little girl?

I loved this book so much. The dynamic of these four characters was hot and loving. I thought the writing was done so that I felt close to it all. This author never disappoints.

Sebastian (African Gray parrot)
Vanessa (teammate of mfc)

Sol is a swim team captain, winning lots of gold medals until someone shoots her. She missed her high school graduation recovering. She's about as alone as a person with family can get. They pay her no attention unless it's negative attention. When she tries to go back to swimming, she gets scared and runs. Now, she's missing, lost somewhere in the park. Trident hires Duke, Lorde, and Noble to find and protect her. Noble knows she's too young, but at 19, she's legal. When they find her and return her to her father, they find out she has a stalker. And it's not the girl that shot her, but a male that describes acts he wants to do to Sol. Will her men be able to protect her, make her feel safe enough to talk, and find out who's out to get her?

There are definitely some darker kinks in this one. And it's steamy with a bit of spice. There is the obvious "she's 19 and makes a stupid decision" scene, but it wouldn't be the book it is without it. I was giving up hope until that plot twist happened.

Overall probably 3.5 stars, but rounded down due to something ick ick ick in the epilogue.

The book was fine, some things less to my liking then others, but to then one-off mention in the EPILOGUE that after giving birth the heroine REQUESTED a “husband stitch” supposedly for her own sexual pleasure is ridiculous. No reasonable doctor would perform that, and it causes all sorts of harm
