Davey’s Revised Rule #1: A good Daddy will love his boy with all his heart.

Davey Hendrickson doesn’t mind being forever single when he’s got his bestie at his side. It’s not that he wants to be single. He’s spent most of his adult life searching for his own perfect Daddy. Even if he’s not naturally submissive, someone that fabulous is obviously meant to be a boy… right? Over the years, he’s dated every type of Daddy imaginable but not one of them could come close to meeting the requirements from his ridiculous list of rules.

After losing his husband, Sammy Robustelli has learned to be strong while raising two children on his own. No matter what life has thrown his way, nothing seems too hard with his best friend and roomie Davey at his side. When the two friends learn that people believe they’re a couple, they can’t help but laugh. The very idea is a big joke… until it isn’t.

It only takes a few wake-up calls before Davey wonders what happens if a guy might be in love with the best friend he can never have. It could never work for a pair of boys in need of a bossy top, right? Except… maybe Davey doesn’t know himself—or Sammy—as well as he thinks.

This is the final book in a series about not-so-perfect Daddies, adorable “boys,” and one sassy brat with an insane list of rules. Grab your fan and tissues because this series comes with both a high heat advisory and all the squishy feels you’d want from a Susan Hawke book.

REVIEW:

I KNEW IT!!!! I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT!! 

When Ms. Susan was talking in her group about this being the last book and telling everyone to look for clues, I knew how this was going to turn out. I didn’t know the intimate details, obviously, because every daddy/boy or BDSM relationship is different. But I knew how it was going to turn out and who was going to be who. And I have to tell you, I could NOT be happier about how it ended. 

Obviously, with the blurb, I’m not giving anything away. You want to know how this turns out. Read it. I just know this book made me so happy. It couldn’t have turned out more perfect for two people than these two. It’s more than a second chance, it’s a realization into themselves. It’s seeing beyond themselves and the roles they put on themselves, to see each other and themselves as they really are and have been all along. And for two people without a clue, to finally see what everyone else knew all along. It was actually quite humorous in a lot of ways. Because of what they had to go through to get to where they needed to be. There’s so much I wish I could share because this was absolutely my favorite book of the series. It really is. Because these two are so special. And especially if you read books 6 and even book 1 and so forth to see how this all started and progressed, you will know why they are so special, so cherished and so loved by everyone. Even in diva mode. 

That’s all I can really say. There are some tearful moments, a few scary ones, some downright hilarious ones that made me laugh so hard, I spit soda out of my nose. I mean….ouch. But the thing with this book, it’s not just about second chances or love. It’s about family. Not always blood family, but the family we choose and love with all our beings. It’s the people in our lives who are always there during the good, the bad and the ugly. And still loving us at our lowest. I can’t wait for the spin-off, considering on who it’s going to be. And I’m SO glad I’ve got to be here on this journey.
