Ok, so where to begin with this cover. It is a great cover. It has good composition and title work. The man on the cover looks to be about the age of the hero. BUT and this is a BIG but and also a major pet peeve of mine. The hero is a golden blonde in this book. That guy on the cover...NOT a golden blonde. Probably not a biggie for most readers, but I am a picky cover whore, and it drives me BONKERS when the cover models don't match the characters found within.
WOWZA...was this one good. It was SO close to being a 5 Star read for me. The only thing stopping it was I felt it was a little slow moving in places. That was just a very tiny issue in an otherwise fantastic read. If you follow my reviews on here, you know me and DADDY kink are #besties. I LOVE me a well written DD/lg book and this one may be one of the best I have ever read.
The writing was fantastic (no surprise Eve's writing always is). The pace, as I mentioned above, I had some small issues with. The plot was engaging and intelligent. It was fairly angsty, but there was no OW/OM drama. The sex scenes were SMOKIN' hot. Like fan yourself and get a change of panties hot. In fact, do yourself a favor and just leave your panties off when reading this. Save yourself some laundry. *lol* It had humor. It had feels (OMG the letter Kate wrote near the end had me bawling like a baby).
There was a nice collection of eclectic secondary characters, and both main characters were for the most part very likable. There were certain times I found myself frustrated with Tyler and not liking him a whole lot and times when I wanted to shake Kate and say "wake the f@ck up! You deserve better." But that is the magic of storytelling. Lastly, this was wrapped up in an OK ending. Personally "I" would have liked a bit more. That said, there may be a novella coming (hopefully), and I am sure we will see this couples HEA in that book. Not much left to say really, this one gets two HUGE thumbs up from yours truly.
