I don’t even have words for how stupid this book was. Please take my word for it and DO NOT waste your time. This truly sucked.

would not recommend

day dreams and not very good ones at that.

she could have done things with a real person instead of just imagining them. don't think they guy she was dreaming about knew she was alive.

Short, sexy daddy daydream story
4 stars

This is a short and sexy story which definitely feels shorter than its stated 53 pages. It’s the first book I’ve read by Valerie Wilde and I’m definitely keen to read more from her.

Clare felt like a real person whose inappropriate crush on her co-worker was really starting to affect her life, work and probably her sanity. She does have some interaction with the object of her crush, Gideon, but since we only get Clare’s point of view, we’re just as confused as Clare is about his feelings for her. If any.

Clare’s fantasies escalate through the story and yet I was still surprised by the ‘twist’ at the end. It was still hot, especially if you like a bit of daddy kink. I felt there was a nice progression through the story and the writer held my interest from beginning to end.

The writing was also well done although there were a number of changes in tense throughout the book which was jarring. Nothing that a good proofreader or editor couldn’t fix.

The ending of this story isn’t a HEA or even HFN but more of an optimistic feeling that Clare is ready to come out of her fantasy world and take her chances in the real world. Was I pissed that the book abruptly ended without any resolution between Clare and Gideon? Sure I was. But it worked with the style of the book - perhaps leaning more towards erotica than romance. And my feelings did show that the writer did her job. Had I not cared about her characters then I wouldn’t have cared that I didn’t get to see their real romance play out.

I definitely feel this book has been unfairly maligned and not deserving of its low star rating. It’s quite clear from the title and cover what kind of book it is. And it is what it is. It was more of a 3.5 star read for me but I did enjoy it so rounded up. A short, sexy daddy daydream story - if that sounds like your bag, you might like it, too.

2.5/5🌟
Clare has a huge crush on co-worker Gideon. An insanely huge crush. An obsessive crush. An unrequited crush.
But everything might change in an office party.
The main characters are awkward to read, specially Clare... And everything is in her point of view so it's absolutely awkward.
She daydreams a lot, and there isn't really a point for any of it.
But, it was entertainingly short, and kinda hot. I have to give it that.

Daddy Of My Dreams by Valerie Wilde

A short steamy read that unfortunately wasn't as enjoyable as others I've read by the author. It felt more like this was an early piece of writing as some of it felt cluttered and confusing. The flow wasn't as natural. A few steamy moments but not a great read for me.

Clare has a crush on Gideon. This story is all about fantasies and dreams about what it would be like to be with him. Do dreams come true? Good question!

Daddy Of My Dreams
By Valerie Wilde

DNRA - Filled with daydreams of a girl with a crush on a co-worker. Nothing intriguing at all about it.

[Jennifer K · Rating 4 out of 5]

I love a nice quick read, and this one delivered.

[Savannah Cherniwchan · Rating 1 out of 5]

Clare has a huge crush on Gideon, a coworker of hers. This is basically about her daydreams but it wasn’t written very well. Would not recommend

[Shavonne Belford · Rating 3 out of 5]

Clare’s got a huge crush on a coworker but instead of doing anything about it she has vivid naughty day dreams

[Petra · Rating 3 out of 5]

Surprising ending!

[Annemarie · Rating 3 out of 5]

Clare has a massive crush on Gideon, but is too afraid to approach him. So all this story is her dreams, angst and fantasies about what she wants. Would've been better if he was fantasizing about her at the same time.
