Blurb

Andy's a recent college graduate with a mountain of debt and a load of regret over earning a degree he'll never use. When he takes a job at a local gay bar, he doesn't expect the first person to catch his eye to be the man he's been dreaming about since a chance encounter.

Joshua's comfortable in his life. He has an amazing son who's wise beyond his years, an ex-wife who's one of his best friends, and a great job. Now, if only those closest to him would quit hounding him to start dating again after the divorce.

Joshua finds what's been missing with the other people he's tried dating the first time Andy slips up and calls him Daddy. What starts as a slip of the tongue could lead to what both men really need and want.

Carra's Review

I’m a fan of Daddy/boy stories as well as age gap, so this one piqued my interest from the moment I read the blurb.  I liked the setup for this story, and I thought the characters were a perfect match for each other.  It was lighter on the kink aspects than I expected—though there was spanking to be found—and focused more on relationship dynamics as well as family ones.

Andy was actually a pretty responsible guy, if a bit adrift when it came to his life’s direction…which made Joshua coming into his life a good thing.  Joshua is the nurturing type, and picks up on Andy’s need for guidance—which he felt drawn to provide from the first time they met.  They fit well together, though the almost immediate shift into Daddy/boy did feel a bit quick.

There were some points were time seemed to jump with no true reference points, making the story feel slightly disjointed at those times.  And one of my pet peeves—the obvious and annoying misunderstanding—was one of the first things that came up.  But the story also had Joshua’s unique family situation with him, his ex, and their son; and yes, I normally steer clear of stories with kids but Joshua’s son Gabriel is precocious for his age, providing insight even some adults wouldn’t clue in to.  That helped balance things out a bit for me, and while Joshua and Andy’s relationship may have felt like it got serious pretty quickly, I enjoyed the two of them together since they matched up so well.

This one was a 4-star read for me, and I’d recommend it for readers who enjoy Daddy/boy stories…just realize this one may be a more tame than you might expect.  This book is for readers 18+ for adult language and sexual content.

Quinn writes LGBTQ romance with a kick. Their stories center around the relationship building between the characters, but also shows how compatible they are in the bedroom (or wherever else the urge strikes).
