Roommates Lindy and Rowan can hardly wait to decorate their new home for Halloween, but no sooner do they begin than they run afoul the newly elected head of their homeowner association, Clay Hilliard.

When Clay tells them the inflatable Hello Kitty won't be allowed on their lawn, the women plan revenge against the handsome homeowner association head and his assistant, Jon Ingram. An old-fashioned prank is in order, one involving eggs and toilet paper.

But Clay and Jon aren't just ordinary neighbors. They are Daddy Doms who believe an old-fashioned prank calls for old-fashioned consequences.

And that's not the only surprise in store on what will be the most memorable Halloween night. There's a dark side to these Daddy Doms the women are yet to discover.

About the author

Ava Sinclair

201 books505 followers
Ava Sinclair is a best-selling Amazon romance author who caters to readers who appreciate a plot driven book where the steamy sex complements the story, rather than overshadowing it.

A hopeless bibliophile, Ava avidly reads across multiple genres, and this is reflected in her varied body of work that spans contemporary, medieval fantasy, western, historical, time travel and sci-fi. She especially enjoys world-building and crafting interesting and relatable characters.

Because her books feature graphic sex and elements of power exchange, she gently cautions her readers to take her work for what it is – delightful, sexy escapism.

Ava lives in southern Virginia in a farmhouse tucked away on a wooded hilltop. The first thing she did after moving in was to rip out the dining room and turn it into a library/office. This is where she spends most of her days, writing and being ignored by her cats. When she’s not working, she enjoys roaming the woods around her house, or seeking the advice of Lucius, her Eagle Owl.

Scary Daddy is stand alone Halloween novella. Rowan and Lindy are roommates and excited for everything Halloween. When they attempt to decorate their home, though, they get a message from Clay, the head of their homeowner’s association, to take it down. Upset and wanting to get back at him, the ladies plan a little revenge, but they quickly realize that Clay and his business partner Jon are not what they expected, but could they be everything they’ve ever needed?

This story is short, sweet, and full of tricks and treats! Two different relationships have the potential to form, if Rowan and Lindy can make it through the evening. I loved Rowan’s feistiness and that even though Lindy was willing to follow along, she also took responsibility for her own actions and could stand up to Rowan if needed. I loved that while they had similar needs and desires, they had two men who fulfilled those in different ways. Clay and Jon were full of secrets and stern loving, but also had a vulnerable side as well. I loved that the difference between harm and hurt was so well explained by both Clay and Jon, and I really enjoyed how the events of the story played out. I don’t want to give anything away, but the ending was great! I know this was just a little Halloween novella, but these two couples would be fun to revisit for future holidays! If you’re looking for a quick Halloween read with a Daddy Dom twist with a splash of surprise, this is definitely the book for you!

I think Ava Sinclair was one of the first Daddy authors I read. I still read every book of hers I can get my hands on, whether they are Daddy books or not. It doesn't matter, as long as it's from Ava, I'm happy. So a pair of scary daddies for Halloween? Perfecto.

Lindy and Rowan are besties who have been looking forward to decorating their home for Halloween ever since they moved in. Only, they didn't know that they couldn't decorate the outside the way they wanted to until they got a nastygram from Clay, the head of the HOA, who tells them that they can't keep their inflatable Hello Kitty up. So, our intrepid ladies come up with an evil plan for vengeance, which includes duck eggs and toilet paper.

Only, Clay and his partner in crime Jon are wise to what our ladies are up to, and they have their own plans for them, and their behinds.

This is a really cute little story. It is a quick read and one I really enjoyed. I liked all 4 characters, both on their own and broken down into couples. They all have very definite personalities. Great read.

Scary Daddy is stand alone Halloween novella. Rowan and Lindy are roommates and excited for Halloween. They really LIKE Halloween and to go all out to celebrate the day but they received a letter from the HOA President letting them know they had to take down alot of things they hung up so the girls decided to retaliate. HOA Prez Clay and his business partner, Jon have been intrigued by Rowan & Lindy; the guys know what they need and know they are the men to give it to them. The action is hot, steamy, intense and fabulous. There is some age play, Daddy Dom and power exchanges. This is a really good and quick read.


My Rating: 4.5 stars *****

Two guys two girls...already a crowd. I don’t mind the number of guys but girls...nopes.
Also the story is HFN. They live happily ever after but the guys are immortals and girls are mortal. So the girls die and guys stay. Of course the guys move on to other girls. This is so not my type.

Halloween is coming up and Lindy and rowen have saved up to buy a hello kitty halloween infallible doll for the season but they get a notice that they arent a loud to have that in their yard.. they go talk to the head of the HOA to see if they can let them put up hello kitty even for one night.

Enter Clay and Jon.. things don't work out well for Lindy and Rowen.. plus the energy is hot between the 4.. but They must save Hello Kitty.. a Prank is pulled.. but the ladies are caught and they are taught a lesson..

But theirs something else in the air.. ;)

Only thing I kinda disliked was that since they were once they grow old the girls and die... the guys get a reset and go looking for another set of girls.. I want them to be the one and only.

I totally enjoyed this short but excellent Halloween Daddy Dom romance romp & I often found myself smirking, smiling & outright laughing while reading it. The two heroines: Lindy & Rowan were a complete crackup, their attitudes, their actions & their combined decision making (not their strong suit!) process were sometimes an out & out hoot.
Both women have just recently moved into a HOA managed neighborhood & find to their combined horror it is the world's most uptight & draconian ruled place they've encountered. And the new young head of the HOA (that they voted for sight unseen) apparently is beyond worse than the former elderly man they helped to vote out of office.
Both women have eagerly been awaiting October-- Halloween season, their favorite time of the year & the initial 'shot across the bow' that launches an escalating (from Lindy & Rowan's perspective) situation between them, their rigidly regimented neighbors & the draconian HOA is a huge Halloween decked blow up Hello Kitty they place on their front lawn. Almost before it's completely blown up they receive a notice advising them it is AGAINST HOA RULES & to avoid a punitive fine to remove it immediately. From then on, Lindy & Rowan continue to attempt to celebrate Halloween & each effort is met with another 'it is AGAINST HOA RULES & to avoid a punitive fine to remove it immediately' notification until they declare revenge against Clay-- the new HOA Head.
Once they encounter Clay & his long time friend Jon (both men frighteningly handsome, intense & dominant) both women find themselves no longer in control of the situation. As for Clay & Jon (both of whom are Daddy Doms of a special kind), the spunky pair of women are EXACTLY what they want, need & pursue with laser focus.
IMO this story has a wonderful blend & balance of humor, sassiness, intensity, STEAMY encounters & good looking Daddies who have lots & lots of love for their chosen baby girls (who by the way ARE given a choice if they WANT to be Clay & Jon's baby girls). The story has a little bit of spanking, a tiny bit of caning, serious & loving hugs & power exchange. So, for a very nice & enjoyable Halloween themed story I think this is perfect!

Rowan and Lindy are being very naughty girls. But they are about to encounter two Dom Daddies that will not put up with their Halloween Naughtiness. Clay is the new HOA President and he plays by the rules. Jon is Clay’s business partner and best friend. They are going to have to teach the girls so manners but first a much-needed bit of discipline is in order.

You have to love the Halloween spirit these two have. I LOVE HALLOWEEN! For the past few years, we had to tone it down but I love decorating and having fun with it. I always go for the scare. But not being able to have an inflatable anything for décor sucks. I can understand their unhappiness but I wouldn’t have been that naughty. I knew something was up with the guys. Have to add that little twist to make it more Halloweenie. I have to say I am more like Lindy then Rowan. The style of punishment and the way Lindy saw herself is like what I would say. Rowan is more strength and needing a firmer hand. I truly enjoyed this short story. It was fun and made you get into the mood. Thanks Ava.

Lindy and Rowan are two twenty-eight year old women who live for Halloween and handing out candy to the trick-or-treaters. This year is the first year in their new neighborhood and things are much like a wet blanket when it comes celebrating Halloween. The new head of the HOA is enforcing their stupid rules and won't allow them to display their Hello Kitty blow up on their front lawn. Clay and his business partner, Jon are the new men of the neighborhood and Clay has become the new head of the HOA. Lindy and Rowan try to reason with Clay and Jon and still get told they will not be able to display the Hello Kitty balloon. The girls are not happy and plot revenge. When things get out of hand, the men decide it's time to show these naughty girls what happens when you mess with a daddy dom. This is a great story and I loved every minute of it!! Plus there's a twist to the plot which is awesome.

This is becoming one of my favorite authors. I couldn't put it down. I love the way this author writes.

It's Halloween time and all the girls want to do is to put up their Hello Kitty inflatable to celebrate. Lindy and Rowan love Halloween. They were so excited to be able to finally put up their Hello Kitty but they were surprised when they received a letter from the HOA President telling them to take it down. They do it but matters get worse. They decide to get back at the HOA President by egging his house. The HOA President Clay and his business partner, Jon have been intrigued by the girls and knows what they need. They need someone to take care of them. They just have one little secret. Will the girls be able to handle the secret and the guys?

4 Stars

This was a short quick read, which featured a spooky Halloween theme with two female leads and two male leads. It was kind of trippy reading wondering if the two male leads were human or something 'else'. The characters were funny and witty, but also because it was a short read, it wasn't in-depth. For me there were some issues with grammar, that disrupted the flow of the story for me, plus the climax felt "blah" to me. It was okay but just not great.

Cover: 3 stars (The cover is corny and just doesn't work for me)
Characters: 4 Stars (They were good, as can be expected for a novella)
Storyline: 4 Stars (Enjoyable)
Editing: 4 Stars (Grammatical issues like wrong words used, or missing words)

Before anyone gets mad at me - I did not give it 4 stars due to the story's length.

I really liked this story. Row and LIndy are fun in there Halloween obsession (Hocus Pocus is a favorite of mine also). Clay and Jon gave themselves away when they asked The Question. I really loved the explanation of the different types and the job fields that they go into (IRS agents, LOL). The protective Daddy comes out and is easy to see in both Jon and Clay. The 4 stars is due to the fact that I am a "forever" type of girl and this is a 'til death do us part type of story - you'll understand if you read this story and it kind of felt that Jon and Clay were just using Row and Lindy for the duration.

Halloween daddies 🔥🔥

I loved Ava’s daddy series and this one is no different.
Rowan and Lindy have always celebrated Halloween in a big way but the housing estate they live in they are thawted in their attempts to display their Halloween decorations.
After a failed night with no trick or treaters the girls come up with an idea to get back at the estate leaders
But by planning and carrying out a revenge on the elected leaders of their estate home they find themselves soundly punished for their troubles.
With a little twist in the story that isn’t expected the story was still excellent...loved it 🔥❤️

This is a super-quick, fun, and sexy paranormal romance that features two Daddy Doms and the women they believe need some order and rules in their lives. There are some laughs, lots of intrigue and mystery plus some very steamy scenes that include age play, spanking punishments and power exchange. I enjoyed the twist on the paranormal aspect of this story and while I guessed the secret the men were hiding pretty quickly, it didn’t deter from my overall enjoyment of the story.

I can’t even begin to tell you how much I enjoyed this book. It is a sweet story that will make your Halloween. It has everything you look for in a really well told story. It will make you smile, laugh, gasp in surprise and smile again. There is sexy heat and a superbly done twist that you don’t want to miss. Just when you think you know what is happening, wham you do not. If you love hot daddy dom stories, this is for you.

If you not into hot and sexy dominate men then this may not be a book for you but if you are this book as such a sexy steamy read that you can’t help but enjoy it in so many ways. I love the fact that ther is some humor mixed in as it just mekes things so much more realist. The storyline is also really good and with Halloween around the corner perfect for this time of year.

Lindy and Rowan love all things halloween but there Homeowners Association is discouraging decorating for halloween and they definatley can't put up their hello kitty stuff. While they plot revenge on the two guys running the association they have no idea what they have started. Clay and Jon are daddy doms who have had enough of those two little minxes and have decided it is time to discipline them So be prepared for some hot raunchy times

Okay but not great

Ms. Sinclair, please find you a proofreader. The Halloween theme and twist with the male characters was refreshing. I think the reaction Rowan had and some of the things she said in regards to the HOA notice over her decorations was way to immature for the late 20's age she is. I KNOW that's supposed to be the whole point BUT there's a right way to do it and I just wasn't getting it.

Supernatural with a Firm Hand

Just want to say I really enjoyed this book. I'm all in for a sexy supernatural, and this one wasn't too over the top with DD/lg. Maybe DD lite? I would like to suggest that they give it another quick edit/proofread though. I was able to figure out which words were missing or left in erroneously, but it took me a moment of OCD to correct the sentences in my head. Other than that, a quick read that pulled me in and kept me invested!

This was my first book by this author. It was a slow burn at first and is set on Halloween Night. I do not giveaway spoilers at all however I will say this book really is not scary and that the Scary Daddy is an odd person. The two girls in this book were naive but learned quick. Then again I came to believe that the two men were using their 'gifts' on them to get them to do the things they did.

Funny Daddy book

Two friends, Rowan and Lindy, love Halloween so much but unknowingly have moved into a house where they don't enjoy the holiday. The HOA have appointed a young man to be the head of their association and no just any man but a very strict man, Clay. Clay and Jon aren't just any man but vampire Daddies. This book is very funny and a great read.

This was a good quick read. I enjoyed the story and the idea that Clay and Jon are doms who are called to the subs that need them. The girls are defiant and fun. All the girls want is to display their Hello Kitty but get a lot more than they bargained for.

Boo! The monsters are real

But they are just what you need, so not so scary after all. Nice variation on the vampire legend. I normally don't care for the vampire trope, but I loved this story. Thank you Ava!
