Secret Daddy by J.R. Gray

On sale from 14th-18th February!

Arrowood, Book 1

I hadn’t admitted to myself that my life was going nowhere until I first had him.

Living back in my small mountain town, in my childhood home, with my older brother, working at the library wasn’t as exciting as I imagined.

That was until a stranger came to the library one night and turned my world around.

Night after night, month after month, I waited for him after dark.

He never let me see his face but he always showed me how well he knew me. No one had ever read my needs so well or pushed me so far and I was in too deep before I even knew who he was.

I just called him Daddy.

My Rating - 4 Stars!

Secret Daddy is a steamy romance by JR Gray.

With a secret BDSM, Daddy relationship over the past 6 months, Aiden has no clue who his Daddy is. But his feelings are real and his reaction to his secret Daddy is real. But it ends up it's someone he knows. I found this to be a lot strange, but I was able to look past it and get into the story. And I'm glad I did, as it all makes more sense later on.

There's a strong forced proximity aspect, as the two get stuck in Aiden's home during a snowstorm. 

Their tale includes hot moments, including kink and pain. And trust issues. The author perfectly illustrates how tough it is to gain trust from someone who's trust has been broken.

The forbidden relationship aspect is every present, as Aiden's convinced they shouldn't be together.

I love them together. They are so perfectly funny, with banter and silly antics. They constantly made me smile. 

There's also plenty of humor with the family too. 

Secret Daddy is a nice read. This JR Gray story starts strange, yet is sweet later on.

I was in love with a phantom. Or maybe ghost was a better word for him. The love had come on like fire—nothing slow or subtle about it. One minute I’d been hot and the next I’d been burning. Ashes. Nothing more than the burn and aftermath he’d created. Reborn from his touch, to suffer until he decided to dote on me once more.

I hoped the snow wouldn’t keep him away. It had started falling after dark. The walk home would be long, even if it was only half a mile. I should have left half an hour ago but I couldn’t bring myself to.

Minutes ticked by, much too late for the library to be open, but I didn’t dare turn off the lights for fear of sending him the message that I’d given up hope. That I’d turned off the lights and walked home alone. To my empty cabin, to heat something in the microwave while I watched television.

I’d rather be here, with an old novel clutched in my hands. One I was only half reading, with one eye on the door. Waiting on my perfect stranger. On the man I wished I knew.

I craved him, missing all the ways I pushed his buttons, driving him to fuck me.

“My Prince.”

My back straightened and the book I’d been clutching fell from my fingertips, clattering across the floor.

Deafening.

“Yes?” My voice shook with the fear I felt the first time and ever. The gulp of terror, the bite of excitement in my gut. My breath hitched. I never wanted the panic to ebb.

It swallowed me with its intoxicating allure.

“I’ve missed you.”

My heart nearly beat out of my chest. “I’ve missed you,” I whispered, scared my imagination played tricks on me.

“Tell me, have you been good?”

I nodded before I realized he couldn’t see me and croaked out, “Yes, Daddy.”
