There is a bit too much insta-love for my liking, plus I never really felt the connection between Kayla and Michael. Maybe there was too much telling and not enough showing, because aside from them being sexually compatible, I didn't see anything else between them.
I did like Kayla though, and I think a story about her and her family (her mom during the too-short Skype scene was pretty funny), would have probably been more interesting to me than the story we got.
Still, if you need something quick and cute to read, you could do a lot worse than this book.

This was a quick, super cute, exciting story. I can’t wait to find out what happens in the second book.

I read this book after Meegan, so I know who the supporting characters are. This is a very sweet book, but I wish it'd be 2 pov.

I love this!! Firstly a series of novellas is something I never knew I needed. I love this age gap romance so so much! Michael and Kayla are so good together and so supportive I just want to watch them thrive and get sexy.

A spicy, sweet read. Kayla is such a beautifully drawn character and seeing her explore this new side of herself with her Sugar Daddy Michael was a delight to watch!

I've enjoyed Weatherspoon's earlier books, so even though the premise behind this one sounded particularly unappealing (a down-on-her-financial-luck post-college-age woman signs up with a "sugar daddy" dating service), I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, it was even less my cup of tea than the premise had suggested, in large part because the first person narrative spends a lot of time telling rather than showing a sexual romantic connection being forged between our 24-year-old black heroine and our 49-year-old white hero. No idea why these two appeal to each other, beyond the fact that the heroine isn't fawning and gold-digging over the super-rich tech hero. No real conflict in the story, either. Particularly disliked the plot twist regarding the heroine's friendship with her roommate/best friend, which came out of left field and made me doubt the narrator's judgment. Have to side with the heroine's mother here when she's pretty upset hearing about this older white guy paying the expenses for her far younger black daughter...
