Exception to the Rule: A Guardian Spicy Forbidden Step-Uncle Daddy Age Gap Romance
Have you just ever wanted to tell the world to f*ck right off?
After refusing to snuggle up to the man I’m supposed to marry -- my billionaire stepfather sends me to a Mediterranean island under the watchful eye and hard hand of a man I come to know only as Daddy.
Between the crashing surf, the isolated room and ‘nurses’ that tend to my care, it’s clear the only way out of this is through it. There are rules…and punishments. Oh, and did I mention ‘Daddy’ is the hottest, calmest, sexiest man this side of the deep blue sea? But, even under his stern stare and stinging hand prints, I know I’m safe.
Maybe safer than I’ve been in my entire life.
A nefarious contract has given him ownership of me. But, just when I am starting to trust, everything unravels because it turns out, this Daddy is also…my uncle. Step-uncle but still. Unpack that. Nothing is as it seems and throwing myself into the surf starts to sound like the perfect way out.
Daddy thinks otherwise.
Author’s A little Daddy discipline is sometimes the key to getting things in order. Especially when it includes some smut-tastic Daddy/babygirl play that leave knickers soaking and little girls begging. Get set up for a one-handed read that will leave you with a sigh and no heavy book hangover, because, who needs all that angst? This is an over-the-top splash in the ocean with a hard hero who takes what he wants and but gives back even more.
The Palate Teaser Series…want a quicky? For 99 pennies? Then grab a treat...
I got you with these standalone Palate Teaser novellas!
They are designed for those who love a low angst, extremely high heat, no cheating, palate-cleansing treat. The heroes are over the top and obsessed with their one and only. These are trope-heavy, taboo-friendly, and are designed to make you squirm.
So, suspend reality for a bit and get ready for some twisted fun, a happily ever after, and a smile.

About the author
Dani Wyatt
181 books2,021 followersSince I was a little girl, I’ve made up stories. I would lay in my bed at night and before I knew what a trope was, I would make up these trope filled stories. Boy sees girl, boys falls for girl, boy saves girl….happily ever after. As I got older, the stories turned steamier and more intricate, but the basics never changed.
Now, my books are still full of romance but the naughty bits are naughtier, my hero’s are obsessed alpha types and my heroines are quirky, real women who come in all shapes and sizes.
So, sit back, banish the real world and get lost in some over the top romance with a heaping helping of hot. xoxoxo

Unbelievable!

Spoilers ahead
The number one rule for reading these types of books is to know what you're getting yourself into and accepting that. Do not crack this open expecting a riveting plot ..... It doesn't exist 🙄. It's smut...... That's it.... it's like watching porn for the plot...... I'm judging you 😌😂. Anyway...... I enjoyed this one more, less plot to interrupt my reading experience 😌. A bit of taboo as the H was a kinda uncle to the h.
I'd have liked to know how he trained previous girls because I'm hoping it's nothing sexual involved there 😒😑cuz sirrrrrrr don't piss me off!!
Anyway good smutty read, I like how the author always still manages to let the girls continue with their lives in the end. Yes I get my babies and marriage but they still live out their dream and I like that because usually there's a significant age gap and most times in the HEA we don't see the h getting to have her own thing.
Anyway moving on 😌

“Exception to the rule” is the story of Sebastian and Larissa.
Very smutty ddlg/ obedience training romance between the heroine and her step uncle. It was fine, my only issue was from the previous women he trained. That just made it meh for me but he did seem devoted to her.
Safe
2.5/5

Dark, dirty, taboo step niece/step uncle, older man, with plenty of panty melting interludes! Larissa is kidnapped and sent to Sebastian to "train" obedience into her all because she didn't want to kiss and marry an older man of her fathers choosing before being allowed to go to art school. While training the brattiness out of Larissa, Sebastian realizes she's not like the other girls sent to him and finds himself breaking his own rules. He is obsessed with her happiness, her protection, her pleasure, her obedience, her being his baby girl and him, being her Daddy. Despite Sebastian's dominance, obssessiveness, protectiveness, keeping her for himself, dark daddy vibes, he really is Larissa's dark "white knight", listening to what she wants and allowing her to follow her hopes and dreams. The scorching hot dark tabooness of Exception to the Rule will leave you needing to change your pantys!.

Phew lord this book was hot when it got hot. This forbidden quickie shares the story of Larissa. She needs to be disciplined because she doesn't want to marry someone she doesn't know. Seb is tasked with making sure she is disciplined and that she behaves. She pushes his buttons but as time passes she starts to be obedient. Seb doesn't want to let her go and she doesn't want to go either. I really enjoyed these two because who doesn't love an age gap and who doesn't love a happy ending?.

Exception to the Rule is Sebastian and Larissa's step-niece/ step-uncle HEA. Sebastian demands perfection in every part of his life. Larissa needs a Daddy to give her a firm hand. It was hot and naughty and overall a great read.
I received an ARC copy of this book from the author and I'm leaving my honest review.

Oh boy! I figured out the reason for the title from those first few pages of the book, and I couldn't help but smile. She really is the exception to his rule. She effortlessly gets under his skin, even without trying, which makes for some really intense and exciting scenes.

He’s depraved…
Sebastian trains women to be submissives on a Greek island. His half brother sends his step daughter Larissa to be trained. So, she’s his step niece. Eighteen years watch young for this jaded, depraved much older man. It’s over the top, questionable fun.
Steamy.
Recommend.

Every girl needs a Sebastian. Without spoiling the story if you’ve ever wished to be a Disney princess he will make it come true! Larissa is a lucky girl!
