Sanctum #5
Picking Poppy
Will she ever meet the man to care enough to woo her with flowers?
Floral shop owner, Poppy West fashions beautiful arrangements for others. So far a petite blonde who is able to talk to flowers better than humans has not been on the most wanted lists of the men in her small town. Easily overlooked, she works long hours trying to sustain herself and escapes into a world of loving Daddies and Little girls.
From the moment Tyler Cooper sees her worrying over the floral arrangements at Ben and Samantha’s wedding, he knows she’s his Little girl. It’s time for him to start building in SANCTUM. He’s picking Poppy to make his house a home.
Pepper's books feature a power exchange in the form of age play (adults who choose to live as a Little or a parent of a Little) and possibly dubious consent. If you are offended by this dynamic, this is not the book for you.

While I love Pepper's books I think they need to talk about consent more, especially because her books are likely many peoples first introduction to Age play/DDLG. Like any power exchange there needs to be talks of limits, boundaries, safe words, and the ability to say no without repercussion. Sometimes little girls need to be able to be adults and it shouldn't feel like this all or nothing exchange. While I've thought this things in many of her books it just really stood out to me in this book the need for that talk. Age play also comes in a wide variety of ages, most of Pepper's books seem to focus on ages 0-3 with emphasis on diapers, but I think the representation of other ages should be talked about. You don't have to use a diaper to be a little, and it should be something both partners are interested in. Not something that one has to be bribed or forced into doing. I love age play being represented in media and thank the author for producing so many works, but I also think it's important to represent safe practices and sometimes her works fall short of doing that.

Petite blond Poppy West runs a flower shop and creates beautiful arrangements for others. She works long hours trying to sustain herself and escapes into a world of loving Daddies and Little girls in her free time. As soon as author Tyler Cooper sees her worry about the floral arrangements at Ben and Samantha's wedding he knows that she is his Little Girl - it's time to start building his home in SANCTUM as he has someone to make a home with.
I enjoyed this story which had a very hesitant Little who did not fully understand the work it takes to give the Daddy control of her life. I liked the way that Tyler was so patient with her and did everything he could to make sure that she had a choice, knew what was expected and was able to make the final decision to be a Little for herself. Easy to read and understand. Contains mature content.

A special Little community...where membership is by invitation only. Tyler and Poppy are the latest couple to make this community home, and this book delves what makes this dynamic so special. As you read this author’s books you will feel the words wrap you in a blanket of love and warmth to the point where your everyday life fades in the background. She lovingly cares for all the characters, both leading and supporting, and will make you melt from the romance and care. I almost have to shake myself as I finish reading to return to reality. Great read - can’t wait to return to Sanctum!

Adorable Read
I absolutely adore this story. Tyler and Poppy are so sweet and delightful characters. There's a point that I got mad at Poppy but she fixed it. This story is a little hotter than bathe others in the series. Which I absolutely loved. The writing and flow of this book is perfect. I absolutely recommend this book and series.

Poppy found her Daddy
Poppy owned a Florist shop and had made the flowers for Priscilla wedding. She was another little that met her Daddy and lived in the community of SANCTUM.
Poppy met Tyler at the wedding. She was putting the finishing touches on the flower arrangements. She didn't know that Tyler was a Daddy. He had been looking for a little for a long time. He thought he had found the one, but she couldn't and wouldn't live the lifestyle.
Tyler was a mystery writer and could work anywhere.
He loved being with Poppy. He called her Blossom from the first day at the wedding.
She had read about Littles but wasn't sure if she was one.
Tyler explained what it involved. He let her make her own decisions about if that was going to work for her.
Her decision was that she would try to make the best she could.
They had their few stumble on rules and obeying.
But could their love and attraction work together for them?

Picking Poppy is the fifth book in Pepper North’s Sanctum series. In this Ms. North introduces readers to two dynamic characters—Poppy West and Tyler Cooper. She is a florist, and he is an author and co-founder of Sanctum. They meet at a wedding of mutual friends are attracted to each other. You must read this book to discover what unfolds.
Once again, Ms. North pens another enjoyable character-driven romantic plot. These two lead characters have a definite chemistry between them. Her plot line is well thought out and allows readers to witness how their relationship evolves. She uses dialog and a dual point of view to build a palpable romantic tension. Her descriptive language creates vivid scenes. I particularly like the scenes wherein the little boy buys special gifts for his mother. These scenes tugged at my heart. Nice job, Ms. North.

Tyler and Poppys story
Poppy had her own flower shop which she loved dearly and which she worked extremely long hours by herself to keep running and open. When she met Tyler she had not really known much about being a Little only what her fear friend Samantha had told her, stressing the importance of privacy.
When she met Tyler at the wedding she had felt so drawn to him and also unusual to her had felt safe within his company. As they begin their life as daddy and Little they have ups and downs.
This is a sweet read and I guarantee you will not put the book down until you reach the final page and discover the outcome...

What a delightful story about a young woman named Poppy who decides to let Tyler guide her in life. Poppy has always known she is a bit “young” and is looking for a man to take charge. So when Tyler comes along, she knows he is the one. She loves her life as a florist, but she also wants to make Tyler happy. Can these two people build a life that some may frown upon? I really found this story to be enjoyable and found Poppy to be a breath of fresh air. And Tyler sounds like the perfect one to guide her in life. A truly enjoyable story.

A Stern and Serious Daddy
Poppy, a quiet Floral shop owner and a serious daddy come together in a sweet addition to the series. I like the fact that he was a sterner Daddy than most Daddies at
Sanctum. The tough love he showed his new little was fun to read about. I only gave this 4 stars because, once again, there was not much background of either character, which I have wish was included in this story. I would recommend this book to anyone reading the series, as well as anyone interested in a DD/lg dynamic.

Rose's are Red, Violets are blue, but Red tulips are the best!!
This my actually be one of my favorites in this series. This one really didn't have a lot of action per say, but this one was very emotional. You will find yourself needing some tissues for this one.
Littles find it really hard to be little at first and sometimes they say or do bad things to the ones they love, but they have to learn.
You will love this one..

Poppy
I am enjoying this series of stories about Littles. Poppy is a florist trying to keep her shop afloat. She meets her daddy while fixing the flowers for her friend’s wedding to the Sheriff, and he recognizes her as his right away. I was especially drawn to the fact that she had such a hard time being little to begin with, but true love won out and there was a sweet HEA!

Sweet book.
I loved the story! Pepper North writes wonderfully. Poppy is a Little who has only read about the life style. But, when she meets a man at a wedding and finds out he is a Daddy and wants to be her Daddy, she's excited and nervous. Can she be the Little he needs and can she be happy? Find out. Read the story. This is the second time I have read these books and I enjoy them as much as the first time.

His Perfect Blossom
This was a very sweet DD/lg ageplay romance.
I enjoyed Poppy's discovery of her Little side and her honest struggles trying to determined if this was something she wanted FT as a lifestyle.
The depth of caring and love in DD/lg ageplay romances is always my favorite. They seem to go all in and feelings and emotions always seem to be stronger and deeper.

The struggle is real
I loved this storyline. I was addicted to Poppy's struggle to be fully Little. She is more independent than most of the other Little's and found it difficult to fully submit to her Daddy.

Nostalgia...
Ok so I know Poppy's name wasn't Blossom, but that's what Tyler called her often enough, and it made me think of the 90's TV show and all things quirky. I love it when a Little comes into her own with the love and guidance is her Daddy. Well done ❣️

Ok
This was an ok short story. It was a quick, easy read. Pretty much the same to the others in this series. It’s great if you want a quick read to waste some time without a bunch of drama.

Why Amazon insist on 20 words for a review via kindle, I don't know. Especially when I just want to say that I really enjoyed this book.
