Daddy's Home

Rate this book
Money talks, but a daddy is forever.

Matthew McKinnon worked his entire life to keep his head out of the water. But after years of struggling with men, he feels like giving up on love. The city is especially lonely in October, and his entire family seems to have everything going for them.

In the city of shadows and secrets, New York, Matthew meets his stranger, a billionaire businessman. The man offers him the deal of a lifetime. The cost is his surrender to his filthy commands. The reward? A blank check. Matthew sees it as a possible change in the tone of his life, but he can’t look past the man’s rich charisma and persuasive touch.

Hunter Underwood is an alpha without consequence. With his empire secure, a life of conquest no longer satisfies his needs. He is sure of one thing—Matthew is valuable, and he wants to buy his precious time.

Hunter is ready to double down on his business plans, but when he sees Matthew pause underneath the bright LED lights of Times Square, he realizes he’s looking at the man of his dreams.

Matthew falls into a world of pleasure and trouble as an unexpected pregnancy twists into a strong and complicated bond. A life, a real future—all of these things are in the cards if Matthew gives himself to Hunter. But there’s a catch.

The game of love always comes with a price, but the temptation to lose oneself in another’s heart is almost uncontrollable. Faced with a choice over his family, will Matthew back out of the deal before Hunter takes it too far?

Daddy's Home is a 45,000 word omegaverse mpreg romance that promises steam and a wild proposal. This novel contains leather action, a cute omega with a heart of gold, and a deep bond that cannot be broken. A happy ending is always guaranteed.

Okayish

There were a few holes in the storyline and this I found confusing at times while I read. Try not to be picky but those holes affected the story in my opinion. This is an alpha - omega story but the alpha did not act like a typical one. The romance between the two also seemed disjointed.

This read more like an outline than an actual finished product. I found myself rolling my eyes and skimming through the book. I'm skeptical to read anything else by this author as of now. Will give it some thought.

I wanted to like this story, however the story line was very hard to read, the author keep jumping around and I couldn't understand the time line. I also understand that authors want you to sign up for their mailing list, however I really don't like when they withhold an epilogue or an alternate ending to a book to get you to sign up. I always stop reading those authors, but that's just me. Like I said I wanted to like the story but it was very hard to follow. You should definitely read it and figure it out for yourself whether you like the book or not as my personal opinion on all reviews. Because what I like you may like or you may not like, my only warning is that the author does tend to jump timelines. I think the book happens in a matter of a couple of weeks but because there's no actual talk about how long the two gentlemen have known each other it's really hard to tell. Happy reading

I honestly enjoyed reading this amazing, heartwarming Mpreg romance.
It is about: a lonely male omega (Matthew) who only wants to be loved for himself but has basically given up on love after getting involved with the wrong kind of men who do not appreciated him then he meets a stranger (Hunter, a billionaire businessman) and they become involved with each other but there are trials & tribulation on the horizon.
There is: twists & turns, intrigue, a caring brother (Sawer), corrupt city officials & developers, bad friends, family issues, jealousy, tension, conflict, attractions, financial offers, rejection, anticipation, curiosity, desire, protestors, emotional feelings, some domination/submission, role playing, sibling disagreements, discovery, deceit, betrayal, heartbreak, threats, defiance, manipulations, acceptance, contentment, love, happiness, steamy scenes and a satisfying happy ending.
The characters are quite well-developed with individual personalities and react with realistic emotional feelings to the situations, they find themselves in. The story-line and plot is well-written and entertaining with some unexpected surprises.
It was a pleasure to read this Mpreg romance and I would recommend it.

Hunter, a lonely billionaire meets Matthew while out roaming the streets of New York. Matthew, out with friends for the night, is intrigued when Hunter offers to 'buy' him. Hunter intends to become Matthews new Daddy but Matthew needs some time to think the proposition over. With the threat of losing his family's bar looming overhead, Matthew finally decides to take Hunter up on his offer. The two get together and, other than the weird pet names, the sparks really flew. When Hunter finds out that his current building project is directly responsible for Matthew's family business troubles, he tries whatever he can to help them, except for telling Matthew the truth. When Hunter's secret does come out, things get very strange between these two men. Hunter turns out not to be much of a daddy figure other than from a financial aspect. He actually ends up being quite the coward in several ways and it ruined the initial dynamic that was built between the two. The story ended happily for all involved but the buildup of Hunter and Matthews relationship was much better than its culmination.

This is my 1st read and review for this author and it’s a fantastic story. Matthew and his mates went out one night they get drunk then a guy tries to pick Matthew up but his friend went to punch the stranger but it was Matthew that ended up hurt. Matthew and the guy ( Hunter ) ended up in jail Hunter gave Matthew a card and offered to buy him well Matthew was insulted but thought about it anyway. Hunter was out walking around Times Square when he saw this gorgeous omega out with his mates, Hunter went over to Matthew and propositioned him that if Matthew becomes his he will pay him 50 thousand dollars so Matthew told Hunter that he would think about it, Matthew’s brothers bar wasn’t doing so good so he knew the money would help but Matthew wanted love and he was scared of getting his heart broken so he had some serious thinking to do. That’s all I’m going to give you guys but there is so much more to this story to keep you entertained and turning the pages. This is a fantastic story and I highly recommend this book it’s well worth the read.

I was so happy to read this and see Matthew get his hea, he so deserving of it after all he has been through. We first met Matthew in Bound by his Omega which is his brother Sawyer's book. If you haven't read that yet it is ok but bear in mind that you may experience some spoilers but it won't ruin it to much. Anyway back to Matthew he really is finally back on his feet, but isn't that when all hell brakes loose for all of us, seems poor Matthew experience's that to.
Enter Hunter his soon to be love interest all on a night where all hell brakes loose. The chemistry between these two is instant, which is pretty special that we can feel it. 
I have to say I'm not a massive Daddy type book fan but this one won my heart and I enjoyed it very much. I also love this author so much, any book I read of her's never disappoints me. I can't recommend this book enough it really is a must read because it is truly awesome and everyone needs to enjoy the pleasure of reading it.

Hunter meets Matthew out on the street one day and becomes enthralled with him, so much so he offers money to become his Daddy. Matthew could use the money to help his bar stay open but he sees something intriguing in Hunter but money would only cloud that. But when secrets are found out and a surprise pregnancy occurs, do they have what it will take to be forever?

A good story with hot and steamy sexy times between two tantalizing men. A story that flows well and keeps your interest. Daddy's Home is a good read that Alice Shaw fans will love.

I received this book as an advanced reader's copy and voluntarily am leaving my honest review and recommendation.

Daddy’s Home by author Alice Shaw is a quick read. Matthew has worked hard all his life to get what he wants. He is very lonely.
Hunter is rich, handsome, can have any guy he wants. But he is looking for the man of his dreams.
Matthew has some serious trust issues, can Hunter convince him he is more than good enough for him?

I liked the working man falling for the dreamy idealistic billionaire. This is one is fast paced, and has a real feel good vibe to it. You will have to suspend belief a little in this book but not much. This is the kind of read you pick up when you want a fun read that will make you smile.

Interesting story. Matthew, an omega, wants only to be loved and protected. Hunter, who has never met anyone who intrigues him more than Matthew, wants only to take care of him. I have never read a book by Alice Shaw and this one is different from my usual selections. I found it at times to be a little confusing but later it cleared up. I gave it a 4 because it was well written but I just could not get drawn into it like I want to be when reading a book. I am sure there are a lot of people who will appreciate it more than I did, but it is still a good read.

A very enjoyable read with a good storyline, great characters, some kink, and hot scenes. Matthew wants someone to take care of him and from the moment Hunter sees him, Hunter wants to be the one to do it. Hunter and Matthew have a very strong attraction and each has what the other needs but lies and deceptions might just make their HEA impossible. I really enjoyed watching their relationship develop and I was really glad to see Sawyer and Marcus again. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.

Hunter proposed an offer to Matthew, he submits to hunter and in return Hunter will pay him. Somewhere along the way these two develope feelings for each other. Hunter works Real estate and is trying to close this last deal so he can retire. Not knowing that some of the businesses he’s trying to shut down happens to include Matt’s family bar.

This was a great read with an added twist. I loved the characters except Jack of course he gets what he deserves in the end though. I truly enjoyed this book.

Great story, needed a lot more research

As a native NYer, I am used to overlooking errors authors make about NYC, however Alice Shaw has more than I can even count. NYC has a subway, not a metro. No one has a penthouse in Times Square, certainly not a billionaire. You could never get to BedSty in 20 minutes from Manhattan. These glaring errors immediately took me out of this story, which was a sweet story. With some editing and research, this story could easily be a 5 star story.

Enjoyed

I received this book by the author And this is my honest opinion.
I enjoyed this book, this is about Mathews an omega fighting to save the pub where he works and Hunter who is trying develope the land. Unbeknownst to the two of them that there on opposite sides they get into a arrangement for Mathrew to be his submissive for a certain amount of time. In the end feelings start to appear but also the knowledge that one is trying to take away there livelihood. This story was well written and effortlessly flowed. Good characters and a certain amount of angst to keep it lively. Good read

Another chance at love

Matthew has started to make an impact in life. He tries to share that with his friends from childhood, who it turns out are jealous and make trouble. During that short time Matthew meets Hunter who has serious issues of his own, he wants Matthew, who is skeptical of his intentions.
While falling in love things happen. A little rough, a lot of heart and love. Good read.
I would definitely recommend

This was the first book not only by this author that I have read but also in this genre. I felt like I was missing something as I read as I didn't fully understand everything that was happening and I was confused if the characters were shifters or not based on some of the descriptions. The books was well written and I think the issues were more not my understanding the genre than anything to do with the book itself.

If you are looking for a m/m daddy book this book is for you. I love this series and we finally set Sawyer’s little brothers story.

It’s a bit taboo and a lot dirty. We gets to see how Sawyer and Marcus are doing which I love. And we finally see Mathew get his HEA.

This is the first MPreg romance book I have read. Enjoyed it very much. Matthew and Hunters story was filled with jealousy, desire, emotions that are all over the place, but most of all love and a HEA. This story kept my attention from the first page to the last.

A hot M/Mpreg romance!

A hot M/Mpreg romance that was filled with sweetness, kink and the right amount of heat that kept me entertained until the end. Hunter and Mathew’s character is a great example of finding a HEA with two so totally different person. Their journey was an enjoyable story to read and my first read by the author and it did not disappoint.

He is trying to keep his head out of the water. He has even given up on love. They see him and they something they want. They go to him to make a deal with him. They soon call in love and he gets pregnant. How is this going to go? Can it have a happy ending? See if it can

Matthew is an omega and a lonely one. He meets Hunter and he offers him a deal that he can’t refuse. This read has plenty of drama and suspense, the story is fast-paced and the chemistry is steamy. The characters really drew me into the story and the twists and turns had me hooked from beginning to end. I really liked it.

I love most of Alice Shaw's books, but this one didn't quite do it for me.
I like the overall plot, but I found it jumpy and with holes.

It involves taking a chance, and a desire that knows no boundries.
It contains a good story of finding a love that's important enough to change your priorities.

It contains some great Daddy kink, which alone is worth the read!

I really liked the blurb but ended up just skimming through it and even then had a hard time sticking with it until the end. Hunter was unlikeable, the story line chaotic, I didn’t feel the connection between the main characters and to read the epilogue you need to sign up to a mailing list. Oh, and the last 20% of the book are previews of other books.

Not worth it

The only point saving this from a 1 star is the plot, interesting even thou is cliché. The pacing sometimes is off, the dialogues feel forced and most of the expressions don't make much sense. Also, the detail and explanation of scenes it's so broken you can't really picture what's happening and how. It was not worth my time for sure.

This is a very steamy and sweet story. Hunter and Matthew have intense chemistry and it is very easy to feel the attraction between them. With a plot full of drama, emotional turmoil, twists and surprises you will be engaged and entertained. This is my voluntary and honest review.

Instant attraction that goes sideways. Two opposing sides that somehow work it out. Ends up being a sweet story.

Matthew is an omega. Hunter saw him and found his mate. Hunter works in real estate. He wants to take care of Matthew as a daddy would. They have a few problems that they worked out. In the end they have a HEA.
