Blurb

Zeke is the older man. The richer man. The man who plans to give Korey the world.

As MMA’s Light Heavyweight champion, Zeke’s million-dollar matches and multi-million-dollar sponsorships have given him the freedom to do whatever he likes. It pleases him to spoil Korey. Before Zeke’s best friend Charlie was deployed two years ago, he made Zeke swear he’d care for his brother Korey if anything happened to him. When Charlie is killed by a roadside bomb, Zeke takes the young college student in, determined to give him everything he requires to succeed. He never expects to end up hoping he can keep Korey under more than his roof. He needs Korey beneath him.

If Korey had been in his right mind after Charlie’s death, he would’ve turned down Zeke’s offer. By the time he realizes his mistake, he’s already addicted to Zeke’s powerful presence. He never meant to end up dependent on the man’s smiles and hot glances. The money, Korey could live without. The man has him hooked. There’s only one problem—neither man wants to cross the line from friends to lovers, ruining what they have.

Sugar Fighter is a short introduction to a new series by Charity Parkerson, Sugar Daddies. This series will feature male/male May/December romances where the men are hot, rich, naughty, and don’t like to be told no.



Carra's Review

Sugar Fighter is a pretty quick read and a good introduction to this series.  It does have a bit of angst going on, and the main characters of Zeke and Korey are definitely flawed, but this story gives readers a good taste of the May/December romance dynamic even if it did leave me wanting more about both Zeke and Korey.

Zeke is the older, successful one of this pairing, and though he’s attracted to Korey he has held himself back from acting on it since he’s in the position of taking care of Korey at the request of Korey’s late brother.  Korey is just as attracted to Zeke, but also hasn’t acted on it yet.  You know it’s just a matter of time until they both cave; but once they do that’s when the angst and tension sets in.

I did get a little frustrated with both of them once they finally gave in to each other, each for different reasons (though I’m going to have to leave that as a tease because if I don’t, it will be a spoiler), they both did respond to each other a bit more extremely than I would have expected (hence my frustration).  

Even so, I was still very happy with how the story ended.  And though with shorter books like this one I always clamor for more—I’m a greedy reader when it comes to short stories and novellas and always want the authors to expand on them—the author does do a good job of telling a full story in this shorter length book.  My interest was also piqued for Maverick’s story (a supporting character here), so I can’t wait to get started on the rest of the series.  


Sugar Fighter gets 4 stars from me, and I’d recommend this book for anyone who likes age-gap M/M romance.  This story is meant for readers 18+ for adult language and sexual content.
