About this listen

Avery has a good life. He loves his job as a makeup artist, and he’s ecstatic about being Twink of Honor in his best friend’s wedding. He’s more than capable of supporting himself, but that doesn’t stop him from longing for an older man who’ll take care of him.

Graham Hillingdon has finally repaired his relationship with his son, and he’s thrilled to be part of his son’s wedding day, though he wishes he had a plus one to bring with him. Sadly, he has yet to find a man who appreciates both his dominant and nurturing sides - maybe even someone to call him Daddy.

When Avery and Graham meet at the wedding, attraction sizzles between them, and they end up spending an insanely hot night together. Graham makes sure Avery knows exactly who’s in charge in bed, but afterward, he’s exquisitely gentle. This is just what Avery needs, and Graham is certain he’s finally found a man who desires what he has to give. Neither of them wants to part the next day, but between their age difference and their reluctance to reveal their relationship to Graham’s son, they wonder if they have any chance for a future together. But as perfect as they are for each other, shouldn’t it be worth the risk?

Father of the Groom is the first book in the Love and Care series. Hear more about Graham and Avery in After the Weekend, the second book in the Love and Care series.

BDSM heat held together by a thin story

My first book by this author, I hope her other works are better. Avery is a cosmetologist who is doing the makeup for his best friend’s wedding. When father of the groom Graham introduces himself to Avery, sparks fly. The tone of this just felt weird. One minute we are at a wedding dealing with the usual family drama, the next minute Avery is subjected to BDSM scenes in Graham’s hotel room, including toys - did Graham really pack these for his daughter’s big day??? The story itself was a rushed, low-angst, paint-by-numbers instalove romance, complete with the unconvincing argument before the final reconciliation, all at complete odds with the large amounts of BDSM kink - it felt like two different books jammed together. It was also disappointing that Avery went from smart and sassy to brain-addled pouty teen over the course of the story. Greg Boudreaux narrated the audio well.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
