May Day Daddy

Daddy of the Month Club #3

by Allysa Hart, Rayanna Jamison

I moved to a new town for a fresh start, hoping to escape the strain of living under the watchful eye of the paparazzi.

I was still famous, so, I knew there was always going to be newspaper headlines, camera flashes and screaming fans with boundary issues but I wasn't looking for a miracle, just a new place to call my own, and the illusion of some semblance of a normal life.

Then a baby showed up on my doorstep and my gorgeous new neighbor came over with fresh baked banana bread.

I was not looking for love. I didn’t want to settle down. But, She was everything I ever wanted and then some, and the baby was only happy when she was around.

So much for a semblance of normal, but I might have found the happily ever after I never knew I always wanted.

About the author

I am a full-time mom to two sassy, strong-willed, loveable little girls. What can I say? They take after their Mama. I’m on the wrong side of 30, and I have been married to my best friend for over ten years and I couldn’t imagine doing life with anyone else by my side. We are Southern California transplants, currently residing in a very rural part of the east coast. I have two crazy dogs that I adore, even though they drive me out of my ever-loving mind most days.

Writing and graphic design consume all of my spare time and I could not be happier. This journey I am on is a crazy one, but I wouldn’t trade it for the world.

YOU, PRINCESS, HAVE A DEAL

Each month, a new addition to the Daddy of the Month Club series will feature a different ‘daddy’ and one of the ladies that was introduced in the series prequel. A group of ladies has formed a ‘book club,’ and they meet Lisa’s house. They are over lame pick-up lines at the bars and discovering they each have a passion for reading daddy dom romance stories, they have formed a friendship—over drinks, good food, and naughty romances.

Lisa Raven will meet the man of her dreams when her new neighbor across the street is none other than Mack ‘May Day’ Mitchell, her favorite MMA fighter. As a neighborly act, and a chance to meet him face to face, she will take him one of her famous May Day Baskets. What a shock when he opens the door and is holding a baby who is crying.

This addition of the Daddy of the Month Club will have several twists and turns, including a surprise baby, paparazzi, an ex-wife, and only one book club meeting. It will have Mack needing help from his neighbor, Lisa, with the baby abandoned on his doorstep and no real knowledge of what to do. Lisa will be a godsend of help—but then things also turn sexy between him and her.

“You’re a bit of a wildcat when it comes to getting what you want, aren’t you? But then once you’ve got it, you’re not quite sure what to do with it. I think you haven’t had a man who wanted the same things you wanted in a long time. I think you haven’t had a man who made you feel like the gorgeous goddess you are, and I know you haven’t had a man like me, princess. Let me take charge. Let go, and let me treat you like you want and need and deserve to be treated. Can you do that?”

It doesn’t take long before media has found where Mack has purchased a home and are stalking his home. It will be the help of Lisa once again that will rescue him and baby Raven. The more time these two are together, the closer they become. But where will this relationship be heading? Is there a future for Mack and Lisa—or are they just friends with benefits?

“It’s more like friends with super, VIP package, upgraded to supersized benefits.”

“We haven’t known each other long. I’m not one to normally rush into things, but with you, it doesn’t feel like rushing. It feels like coming home.”

The chemistry between Mack and Lisa sizzles off the pages and is immediate. He brings out a need in her, a desire to call him Daddy, and him hearing the words brings out the Daddy Dom in him. The story does have playful spanking scenes and erotic sex scenes. The next book in the series, Marry Me Daddy will release on June 14, 2019.

Poor Mack Mitchell a MMA fighter and celebrity just wantedm to live a simple life away from the papparazzi. He just moved into a simple house in a very normal neighborhood. As he sits in his boxers enjoying a cold brew after moving in, the doorbell rings and starts a very non-normal life. There's a baby on his porch then the bell rings again and it's his neighbor bearing a Welcome May Day gift basket. Lisa is the neighbor with the basket and she is immediately tasked with helping Mack care for the unexpected arrival, his daughter Raven, from his ex wife who never even mentioned that she was pregnant. The situation has many funny moments with two strangers finding themselves attracted to each other yet needing to take responsibility for an infant, the celebrity stalkers waiting outside for a peek at their MMA star and even Lisa's Book Club meeting with the other eleven members of the club. In my opinion, this is an insta love situation with a bunch of side problems that need handling asap. The baby Raven is a nice addition to the love story, Raven helped balance the hot attraction with the need for some steamy sex when they can find the time to get down to it finally. Mack now has two sweet baby girls to call him Daddy. I enjoyed this story of one more book club lady finding her man with the added bonus of an insta-family. I am looking forward to Marry Me Daddy, Anna's story in June!

This is the 3rd installment in the Daddy of the Month Club - some say it should be read in order - me I think it reads well enough as a stand alone - perhaps toward the end of the series they may get a bit muddled but I have not read them in order. I was a late bloomer to the DOM Club.

This one brings us Mack "MayDay" Mitchell, a infamous MMA fighter. Mack moves in hope that finding a house in a small town will give him time to settle and breath following his divorce and give him a break from the Paparazzi. On the very night he moves in his world turns upside down (or perhaps upside right). Just has he sheds his pants to have a beer in his new house, the door bell rings and it's a baby. While trying to figure out what to do with her, another doorbell. This happens to be Laura his across the street neighbor dropping off a basket of goodies for May Day and his well welcome to the neighborhood.

I adore what these two ladies are doing with the series and each book makes me smile, makes me appreciate the way they can meld their writing seamlessly. The books are fun, forward moving, and steamy. If you are in for a read that will get your motor running, like Daddy Romance, and want to smile. I highly recommend this one.

Sexy MMA fighter, Mack ‘MayDay’ Mitchell, moves to small town USA to get a little break from the paparazzi. He’s all moved in, he’s in his boxers, he’s got an ice cold beer, and he’s got a sweet smelling.... baby?!? WTF is bachelor Mack supposed to do with an infant? Good thing new neighbor Lisa happens to drop by with her May Day basket. And thus it begins.... Both Mack’s and Lisa’s life has changed ... For Lisa: No more homemade spread & unending fruity margaritas for book night - instead it’s last minute supermarket deli and hand delivered single serving libations. For Mack: no more career, it’s baby, baby, and hey Baaaybay?!? For both: it’s Squeezing super sexy shower interludes during baby’s nap. I loved that Lisa was super sweet, and wanted Mack to take control in the bedroom, but she was also comfortable being in charge in her life. She was a Bassa$$ Boss B1t$h (although it was B* only in the best way.) Mack was a sweetie, but honestly, I wanted to smack him on the head right along with Lisa a couple of times. But I have to say, my absolute favorite part of this book is the ending 💖💕❤️ I LOVED THE ENDING. It was incredibly romantic. *swoon*

Mack just wanted to have a normal life without the paparazzi in his face. He figured a nice house in the burbs would be great. He didn’t expect to find a crying baby at his front door. Lisa was told by Belle that there was a new neighbor and his was someone famous. When Lisa finally spied him, she was surprised. More so when she saw him carrying a baby. Mack didn’t know that his ex was pregnant and now she had left his daughter at his door.

I have to say, I started laughing when Lisa sprayed her blinds with coffee and then the image of seeing a big guy confused at what to do with a baby. And when the book club finally meets that is just another whole round of laughter. The book was just all out funny with baby issues and Mack trying not to gag. Lisa and Mack were another perfect match and baby Raven was an added bonus. Their romance fast, hot, steamy, and funny.

I gotta say that I cannot wait for a month to go by......along comes a new Daddy book! This is book three in the series and it just adds to the awesomeness of this series. This is Lisa's story and her chance at HEA. Lisa gets a new neighbor and what better way to 'meet and introduce' yourself then a welcome basket. It is a toss up on who is more surprised when the door opens, Kisa seeing Mack holding and trying to calm a baby or Mack seeing Lisa at the door with her 'welcome' basket. This is such
Was such a great story to read, it a all about building a family. It is not easy getting to know someone and become a couple, now imagine doing this while becoming an instant parent. Can these two make it work? Or will someone tap out?

This series is fast becoming a favorite, and May Day Daddy doesn’t disappoint. This is Lisa’s story, and the authors hold the reader engaged from the start. It’s lovely to see the Book Club ladies’ characters develop as we get to know them, not only those that are the focus of the month’s story but also the others waiting on their stories. The basics of the story are in the blurb – but this book has hot sex, well-written characters (including one to loathe), and an adorable baby. In other words, it has it all!

Lisa can’t believe her eyes when she sees Mack Mitchell a famous mma fighter moving in across the street from her! She goes to drop by with a May Day basket, only to find him with a baby in his arms! Mack is shocked when he finds a baby on his front porch, he falls out that his ex was pregnant with his baby and never told him! Only he knows nothing about taking care of a baby. When the curvy goddess from across the street stops by he knows he has found the answer to his prayers! This is a great book that you will definitely enjoy!

Not bad but a few issues

A cute insta-love story. It's the 3rd in a series and should be read in order for consistency.

It did have two issues that bugged me.

The first: there were inconsistencies in a couple places (eg: a shower curtain became a shower door in the same scene) and too many typos and grammar issues for me to give a higher rating.

Last but certainly not least: MMA and pro wrestling are NOT the same thing. MMA is mixed martial arts and is vastly different than pro wrestling. Yes, I am a bit of a stickler for accuracy and a little research goes a long way.

Overall it wasn't a bad read, just had a few issues. They might not bother someone else tho.

[Badh · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a quick instalove story, with a lot of humor and lots of sizzle. I really enjoyed Lisa and Mack and how they interacted. They just seemed to click immediately and it's like they found the other part of their souls in each other, and that recognition meant that they just couldn't be apart anymore.

I really enjoy these stories, because they are sweet and loving, and a lot of fun. I can't wait to read the next books in the series, and I know that I'm going to miss it when all of the Dirty Dozen get their HEAs.

Surprising Daddy...

If you ever wish to read a series that will have you laughing, crying, gushing, cringing and any other emotion you can think of (except horror unless it with embarrassment for the characters) then I highly recommend this series..Allysa and Rayanna bring us a years worth of Daddies and even though this is the third in the series I want more....
I loved Mack and Lisa’s progress from complete strangers and new neighbors to the surprising job of parenting a big surprise in Mack’s life... I loved it.

He’s in over his head

Mack “May Day” Mitchell just moved into a nondescript house far away from the paparazzi. On the day he moves in, a baby he never knew he had is left in his doorstep courtesy of his ex wife. He skis happens to meet his neighbor Lisa Raven.

Oh, and his kids name is Raven, too.
Snappy dialogue, humor and sass.
As this fighter learns to be a papa and a boyfriend in two weeks.

May Day Daddy is the third book in the Daddy of the Month Club, and this is all about Lisa. And of course about the famous, tough, sexy MMA fighter who moves in next door.

This is an amazing story in so many ways. I loved the authors ability to captivate the reader from the first letter and to bring out the characters feelings and insecurities. It is a oh so steamy read.

Mack, Lisa and Raven are my new favourite “family” - the authors hit this story “out of the park”. I loved it. The connection between the three main characters was awesome, I loved the interaction with the other book club gals and the “ diaper” scene had me laughing out loud! A quick and fun read.
