Big (99 Daddies, #2) by Casey Cox









Big: (adjective)
Large, as in size, height, width, or amount.
See also: Nick "Big Boy Energy" Macklin.

A Daddy who has everything money can buy...
Except the one boy he can’t have.

You’ve never met a boy like Nick Macklin. He’s an enigma, wrapped in warm cinnamon pastry, wearing a belly-exposing tank top. He’s two hundred and forty pounds of confident, cocky, curvy yumminess.

He’s proud of his body and proud to be a big boy. He’s also loud, unfiltered, loyal, and fiercely independent. In other words, everything smart, successful, sexy silver fox Daddy Steel Crawford has ever wanted in a boy.

There’s just one problem: Nick thinks Steel’s a jerk.

One of those guys that can get what he wants, simply because he’s a man with the means to afford it. Steel might be a self-made man, and able to catch Nick’s eye—but that doesn’t guarantee he’ll automatically be able to capture Nick’s heart.

Even if he is a super successful lawyer who runs his own law firm.
Even if he is as kind as he is rich, and a genuinely decent guy.
Even if his light blue eyes, silver mane, and sculpted body have earned him the title of one of Daylesford’s Most Eligible Daddies...three years running

Steel is a Daddy who can buy anything he wants, but will Nick be the one thing he can’t have?

My Rating - 4 Stars!


Casey Cox's Big, the second book in the 99 Daddies series, is a fun romance. 

Steel's a daddy without a boy. He desperately wants a boy, but he really wants that boy to be sassy. And, damn, he wants to discipline that sass.

In Nick, he finds just the boy he wants. Nick's a dancer who's snarky, funny, flashy, and full of sass.

Their story has plenty of BDSM and kink talk, including wet and messy play. It's definitely a new thing to me, having never heard of it before. But, dear god, the aftercare scene is wonderful. It's seriously beautiful. This alone is worth the read.

Their tale is one with a hookup that's meant to be a one off. It's a tale with assumptions and some miscommunication, or more like, lack of communication. 

For these two, mutual friends aspect is a big deal. It helps them run into one another. But it also causes some worry. And, damn, Nick really doesn't like Steel at the beginning. There's also plenty of internal conflict, as they don't want to cause issues with their friends.

As far as the title is concerned, Nick is a plus sized person. There's a lot of discussion about it, including that shame that comes with being overweight.

It's a entertaining read, with Steel's strong and intense feelings for Nick. It's cute and sweet as he tries to heal Nick's broken heart. Most of all though, I enjoy the exploration of kinks and the admittance of one's desires, which makes for a great scene.

I continue to like the writing style. The characters are well developed, with great dialogue. I enjoy the side characters and the internal monologues. And the conflict is well done. 

Overall, Big is an interesting romance. Casey Cox definitely hits some unique factors with this story, which is a must read if you enjoy great aftercare scenes.

Love Vintage Blend (Home in Hollyridge #2) by Elle Keaton




Amazon Link  - Available in KU
Goodreads Link





Jeff Morgan is rebuilding his life; Zach Brown is trying to keep his from falling apart.

After being disowned by his parents Jeff leaves the city to start over again, hoping to reinvent himself as a winemaker in the small town of Hollyridge. Why not dream big?

Zach is struggling to keep his boutique winery afloat and the summer intern is one more body which will help that happen—and oh, what a body. The only thing is, he’s sworn off men.

Until he met Zach Brown Jeff knew he was gay—but he’d never kissed a man.

One look at Jeff, and Zach knew it was going to be a long, hard summer.

Jeff doesn't know much about wine and even less about love but maybe he's just what Zach needs to save his winery and heal his wounded heart.

A standalone in the Home in Hollyridge series, a dual POV about a man learning to live his own life; and a winemaker who needs a little help from a friend. 24k words
 





My Rating - 4 Stars!


Love Vintage Blend, the second book in the Home in Hollyridge series is a delightful read by Elle Keaton. It's easily read as a standalone.

This book starts with Jeff taking a summer internship at a winery. The boss Zach doesn't give the best first impression upon meeting Jeff. 

Jeff is an interesting character. An ex-banker, he's getting a fresh start. His inexperience and mistakes working at the winery make him lovable character. And he certainly doesn't mind the handsome Zachary, the silver fox who owns the winery. 

Their attraction is quick, and they don't wait long to dive into a physical relationship. It's not insta-love though. This is a story of attraction and desire. It includes a loyal dog, a vile ex-boyfriend, and some threats. 

As for Jeff's time on the winery, his innocence is cute and his mistakes are adorable. 

The writing is great, with a wonderfully atmospheric setting, fantastic characters, and an entertaining storyline. 

Love Vintage Blend is a short and sweet book. With just 91 pages, this Elle Keaton read is a fast one that will leave you with a cavity from all the sweetness.
