A Model Daddy #1

A Model Beginning

Rate this book
It had been years since Jillian DeMarco had a passion for anything except being the best American Designer in the world. He’d had many a lover and especially the ones who thought that the best way to become a high paying male model was to have a relationship with the most famous designer in New York.

Jillian had been down that road too many times, and he didn’t want that anymore.
He needed a real model. Not one who was more interested in how he looked lying on Jillian’s designer sheets. And he needed someone to love and love him.

And then there was Skylar James, devastatingly handsome, wickedly beautiful, and Jillian knew if no one in the world was capable of breaking his heart, Skylar would do what no other man was capable of—making him celibate, or worse.

Will Jillian go down a path most gay men fear to tread?


Will Skylar be the end of Jillian? This is a two book series with new characters and characters from “Extra Virgin” in the same world. This book contains fake boyfriend, opposites attract, hurt/ comfort, and HFN

Sky is at it again! I really loved this book. Skylar and Jillan's story to heartbreaking but also kind of empowering to me. This book had my emotions all over the place, and I loved it. Skylar is down on his luck and struggling but he is trying to keep his head up and with some help from Robert (Extra Virgin) he is getting there. Jillian is in a loveless committed relationship, with Kyla, that has turned Jillian into someone he doesn't recognize nor does it like. Jillian Skylar are instantly smitten with each other but Jillian is holding back because of his relationship Kyla. These two have drama surrounding them but they are still drawn to each; they are exactly what the other needs and wants. this leaves off on a kind of HFN and I can't wait to see what happens next and how these two will finally have their HEA. I would highly recommend this fantastic MM romance by the incredible author!

I received a free e-book copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

New York City's Seventh Avenue is the backbone for this half novel. Unfortunately McCoy breaks the story of a budding romance just as it begins to be underway, leading to the second book in this series.

Three points of view, albeit Robert only "speaks" at the start. A small town boy who found his Daddy, his best friend, another small towner, is Sky, a design school student with fashion aspirations. Sky designs a women's line to show to Jillian, a men's fashion mogul, and the third voice. McCoy describes both the rundown life of a struggling student and the penthouse based party life of the high roller. Supporting characters Stan, a small towner hussling his own business with tech help from Robert, and Kyla, a top model and Jillian's husband, bring in more of the sexual elements of New York life.

At 163 pages, it could have been Part I, allowing me and other readers to better appreciate his creativity. My strong dislike for cliffhangers knocks off a fifth star for a well written and clever story, albeit garroted.

Not what I expected

This book was so sad but so endearing.
Jillian a man with so much responsibility, a big heart yet so alone even in his marriage.
Skylar looking to start his future but running into brick walls and not wanting to have someone in his life unless they were his.
Kyla is a mess of his own doing. A user in self destruct mode who seems to want to take everyone down with him.
My favorite character was Rene, snobbish but with a twist, he has a good head on his shoulders, a good heart and looks out for his friends and his boss.

I would have given this book another star, but - please, somebody find this author another editor! Quotation marks out of place, commas instead of periods, words that probably weren’t deleted from a previous draft, singular nouns with plural verbs; I could go on but why bother.

McCoy can spin a good story, but the many careless grammatical errors make this hard to push through. Mr. McCoy, if you’re reading this, get a better proofreader and I’ll put you on my Automatic Buy list!

A Model Beginning, Model Daddy book one by Sky McCoy. This was a good story. It had a lot going on in it. Sometimes it felt like it jumped around a little to much. I wasn’t happy when I realized it was ending with a cliffhanger. I’m not a fan of those.
