Daddy's Game (The Daddy's Girl Series) Paperback – June 27, 2014

Having read the first book in the series, I waited eagerly for this one, and am not disappointed.Carmen is an artist. She is curvy, dedicated to her craft, and unsuspecting of Natron, a famous footballer, who finds her at an art show.Natron, a famous footballer is associated with model type girls, however he falls for Carmen and love blossoms.What transpires in this story is both romantic and hot! Natron is a Dom who likes to spoil and protect his women. He is a man who has everything, until everything goes wrong.The story is well written and conveys an emotional ride, where loyalty and love wins the day. It is a fun read, with great sex scenes, but it is also poignant and sends a message. "Love can triumph."

Ok, cheesy title for a review, but this book really was a winner. Natron and Carmen are an adorable couple who seem to fit like puzzle pieces from the first page. The dominance is almost subtle in it's beauty.. aside from the super hot sex ... you can tell she really wanted to be there for Him. Be what he needed, in a way that only made who she was a better woman.Why not five stars?I can't stand football and there was just way too much of it. Of course it comes with the territory with a main character who plays. I found myself skipping paragraphs to get through it. But! I would read it again, so it wasn't that bad.

I didn't enjoy this book as much as Daddy Morebucks. But I think the big reason was because I'm just not a football fan and there was a lot of football talk in this book. Also, I grew up in the Dallas/ Fort Worth area so it was difficult for me to read about this fictional Dallas the author wrote about.

This was an amazing, hot romantic love story. Natron is a famous football player who discovers Carmen at the opening of her first art show. She is a shy, petite artist and they develop an instant attraction to each other. Natron likes Carmen to call him daddy and he loves treating her as a little. The depth of the characters are well developed and the chemistry is amazing. The age play is well done and the sex is panty melting hot. Normandie Allerman has done it again. She is a truly talented author.

Decent book. Well developed characters. Believable story line. I would read it again. I guess I need to go back and read the first book in the series. While it does have sex scenes, they are in no way the main focus of the book. Nice touch.

I liked Carmen a lot and I am glad that her and Natron got their HEA. That being said, I had a very hard time connecting with Natron. He was not very likable to me. He liked to play games yes, but he was not very dominant at all. He let his mother walk all over Carmen. He also calls Carmen to come and get him and his friend from a strip club and whips her with a belt while drunk and angry. That is a huge no no. I also admit I got very upset with Carmen for allowing that. Then we are told he apologizes for it but we don't get to see the apology so it feels weak. Then he goes out again with the friend who puts him in questionable situations and of course drama ensues. He is basically a hot mess for most of the story and not in an endearing way.

I loved both of the main characters and the amount of development this author put into their stories. Of course being a big fan of football may have something to do with that. While a lot of stories are pure fantasy, this one gives you that feeling that it could happen in real life. I also appreciated that although the hero was a dominant guy, he was also very loving, generous and committed. Great read.

I can only give this book an ok rating. I was expecting an erotic romance, but found that Daddy's Game focuses more on his game, not as a daddy to his little girl, but to his professional game, football.Carmen and Natron's relationship is barely mentioned beyond a few sex scenes which only touch on the daddy/little girl aspect. I thought it was going to be really strong because it starts off with Natron explaining the dynamic to Carmen which I liked. After that the communication dies. Neither discusses their relationship together and Carmen is blindsided to hear on tv he wants to marry her. She also doesn't tell him that when he's hurt and needs help with his recovery that she feels pushed out by Natron's mom until almost at the end of his recovery. Then there's a big blow up about a picture of Natron in a tabloid with a prostitute in a hot tub. Instead of discussing it Carmen gets drunk and does a stupid, illegal move I hate in books: sets his stuff on fire. Of course, he's innocent and if she'd just thought about celebrities and tabloid and then spoken to him... There's no romance for me with out communication between the principle characters.Natron also pushes the line a couple of times including one when he beats Carmen with a belt in drunken anger (because of his work situation) and she's worried he'll get her with a buckle. She doesn't use her safeword. Bad, irresponsible dom, bad, irresponsible submissive. We know she knows how to use a safeword and that it's her prerogative because it's mentioned a couple of times by her and by her other "little girl" friends. He does apologize the next day, but we don't get access to the details, the text just says he apologizes and it's back to the text giving us more info. about his job.About the erotic part: I didn't find the book really steamy, again probably because I didn't feel the characters were really connected. There is a pony play scene which kind of comes out of nowhere and I'm not sure how it fits with a daddy/little girl relationship.The rest of the book was about Natron and football. I don't mind sports heroes and getting a little detail about his work situation, but I was reading this for the (erotic)romance.So, while the writing flowed well and the story moved along, I'd say 80% was about Natron and football and 20% was about Carmen and Natron, but wasn't well developed and had some problems for me.I received a copy from Netgalley in exchange for my honest review.
