Who’s Your Daddy?

Terrence isn’t worried about figuring out who his Secret Santa is…all the possibilities are fun. But he’s a little curious, especially when the card is signed by his Secret Santa Daddy. Okay, he’s definitely curious, but since it has to be one of the contractors currently rebuilding his kitchen…accidents happen…he’s not worried, but he is hoping it’s the grumpy one. Wait. What was his name again?

Enzo isn’t worried. He knows the slightly distractible little will figure things out eventually, and if he doesn’t, well, one of his cousins will help the cutie out. They find him just as fascinating as Enzo does, but finders keepers, so the cutie belongs to him. Besides, he’s the only Daddy in the group, so that’s going to work in his favor too. As long as he can get his mischievous little to actually try to guess who his Santa is.

When a Secret Santa brings presents and attention, a naughty cutie might need a push to help him remember that the best gifts need a Daddy to play with.

Manchmal sind die einzigen Dinge, die einen Tag besser machen, Schlagsahne und Streusel.

Als Remy dem fliegenden Kaffeebecher eines verrückten Anwalts ausweicht und daraufhin seinen Job kündigt, ist er sich nicht sicher, was er tun soll. Aber er ist sich sicher, dass Schlagsahne alles besser macht, und der seltsame Barista, der ihm einen Job angeboten hat, kann nicht schlimmer sein als die Anwälte … oder?

Manchmal läuft es einfach nicht so, wie man es erwartet … sogar, wenn man ein Dom ist, der es mag, alles genau zu planen.

Brooks hatte gedacht, er hätte seine Sorgfaltspflicht erfüllt, bevor er in der neuen Firma anfing. Hatte er nicht, und jetzt muss er nicht nur herausfinden, wie es weitergeht, sondern auch, wie er die Dinge mit dem schnuckeligsten und schüchternsten Assistenten, den er je getroffen hat, in Ordnung bringen kann … vorausgesetzt, er findet heraus, wohin der perfekte, süße Kerl – und hoffentlich auch Sub – verschwunden ist.

Wenn ein schüchterner Junge auf einen übervorsichtigen Daddy trifft, brauchen sie manchmal einen Schubs, um ihr Glück zu finden – aber wozu hat man sonst Freunde?

Manchmal verlangt der Vormittag einfach nur nach einem Milchshake – vor allem, wenn man bei der Arbeit in die Luft gejagt wird.

Joshua ist es gewohnt, dass niemand seinen Job als YouTuber, der mit Spielen seinen Lebensunterhalt verdient, versteht. Es ist nicht gerade konventionell, aber die Littles, die er in letzter Zeit kennengelernt hat, scheinen zu verstehen, warum er seinen Job liebt. Aber er ist sich nicht sicher, ob er sich Turner öffnen will, der nicht nur sehr offensichtlich ein Daddy ist, sondern auch noch sehr geduldig flirtet – denn Joshua ist kein Little, und jetzt kann er nicht anders, als sich zu fragen, was er dem attraktiven, selbstbewussten Daddy zu bieten hätte.

Turner weiß, dass in Joshua ein Sub steckt, der bereit ist, eine Welt zu erkunden, die er sich nie vorgestellt hat. Er hätte nur nie erwartet, dass Joshua den ersten Schritt machen würde, bis eine unerwartete Frage über Middles zu einem überraschenden ersten Date führt. Jetzt ist der Weg zu mehr zwischen den beiden Männern frei, aber Tuner weiß, dass es mehr braucht als Milchshakes und Küsse, um Joshuas Vertrauen zu gewinnen.

I should’ve never crafted drunk.

Ashton knew being too honest when putting ideas into their jar of fantasies would come back to bite him at some point, and unfortunately he’s finally reached that point. So…now what? How is he supposed to explain his slightly curious fantasies when he isn’t sure where to start?

Maybe he just needs better ways to avoid the conversation completely?

Micha knows his not-so-subtle partner is hiding something…probably something ridiculous, knowing Ashton…but he’s got to decide how long he’s willing to let the insanity continue. Eventually, Ashton has to say what’s on his mind, right?

When crafting leads to nervous confessions and laughter, tickling won’t be the only thing that brings them closer together than ever before.

Sometimes Halloween is more than just costumes and candy. 

Everyone knows Halloween is about playing pretend and finding the best chocolate. But when Boone’s best friend picks out the strangest costumes with an odd backstory that makes Wynn blush, Boone has to acknowledge that something is up. That doesn’t mean he understands why they’re dressed up as a puppy and his Handler, though.

Wynn was supposed to be the only one who knew the meaning behind their costumes. But when a barista with a big mouth and a naughty Halloween party spills the beans, he knows it’s time to confess more than just what his puppy costume means. Feelings, needs, and questions are finally coming to the surface, but with two best friends, it’ll take more than toys and tails to rock their foundation.  

Dean
It’s Joel’s fault. Dean’s questions are piling up along with his emotions, but Joel’s parents keep adding more with every overly “helpful” phone call. Just when he thinks it can’t get more stressful, he’s proven wrong. They get invited to dinner.

Joel
He knows his parents’ life lessons have made him the best partner ever, but he’s not sure his boyfriends-slash-Doms understand that. Luckily for him, though, they get invited to dinner, so he can finally show off how not greedy he is and how special his Daddy and his Dom are.

Tate
Dean might have a vast array of new things to worry about, but Tate is busy wondering if his partners know how adorable they are and if they realize just how close to falling in love they all are. But he’s got questions to answer and fun things on their list to explore, so finding time to worry about love just isn’t on his to-do list.

With emotions running high and logic running low, it’ll take being Olive Garden special to remind three adorable cuties just how incredible their future will be.

Dean
It’s the neighbors’ fault. All of it. Well, not the booze but everything else that led up to the weird we’re going to figure this out exploration is definitely the neighbors’ fault. Dean’s starting to realize he’s not as nervous about their new adventure as he should be but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t found plenty to worry about. With his roommates and best friends, there’s always something to worry about.

Joel
They have the best neighbors, but they’ve left Joel with more than a few questions. Why do people submit? Why don’t more people like humiliation? Why has it taken him so long to figure out how much he likes his roommates? Yes, Joel has questions, but he’s not going to let that stop him from diving into all kinds of fun.

Tate
They were adorably insane, but Tate wouldn’t change his best friends for anything. He also can’t deny them much, so no one is surprised when he dives right in to answering Joel’s questions and helping Dean to figure out caretaking comes in all kinds of interesting packages. New questions might bring curious changes, but he knows he’s the Dom for the job.

When three best friends sit down with questions and fruity drinks, it’ll take more than second-guessing and alcohol to keep them from lending a helping hand and sharing their passion-filled hearts.

Paxton
Bugs. Well, beetles, but it doesn’t matter because they keep disappearing. Poof. Insects, bugs, or just creepy crawlies, Paxton doesn’t care what they’re called because they’re the most fascinating creatures he’s ever seen, and as an entomologist, that’s saying a lot. But since he’s currently in the most frustrating town he’s ever seen, there might be a connection.

Fraser
Bugs. Fraser is fascinated by the adorable bug doctor who’s running around town digging in the dirt and playing with bugs. He also agrees with the rest of the nuts in town that Paxton has to be a little. But there’s one big question on everyone’s mind. Does Paxton know he’s not as vanilla as he seems to think he is?

When the bugs are vanishing and the locals are perplexing, falling in love just might be the easiest part of Paxton’s magical discoveries.

Den Job zu verlieren, ist manchmal das Beste, was einem passieren kann.

Als sich Elliot ohne einen Job und Plan für die Zukunft wiederfindet, denkt er, dass das Universum vielleicht versucht, ihm etwas zu sagen. Glücklicherweise ist der Vater seines besten Freundes mit Ratschlägen und Pancakes mit Schlagsahne zur Stelle, um alles besser zu machen. Womit James ihm allerdings nicht helfen kann, sind Elliots Gefühle und seine Sehnsucht, mit dem liebevollen Mann mehr als nur befreundet zu sein – dem Mann, von dem Elliot weiß, dass er der perfekte Daddy sein würde.

James war immer so vorsichtig, die Beziehung zum besten Freund seines Sohnes unschuldig und rein freundschaftlich zu halten, auch wenn der süße Kerl mit den großen Augen alles ist, was er sich von einem Mann wünscht … und vielleicht auch alles, was er sich von einem Sub wünscht. Aber als ein zufällig mitgehörtes Gespräch zwischen den beiden besten Freunden alles verändert, muss James entscheiden, ob er bereit ist, für den süßesten Sub, den er je getroffen hat, alles aufs Spiel zu setzen.

Jared has a reward for his wickedly wonderful sub, and it’s time to show Finley what his Dom has planned. 

Playing doctor with a naughty slave. 

Of course, if they’re going to play Master and slave, they have to find the best person to play the role of Doctor…and who better for that role than Conner, Finley’s best friend and naughty confidant. With Doctor Conner there to give a needy slave a thorough exam, it will be a reward Finley will never forget.

Sometimes fantasies stay just in naughty imaginations, but sometimes it takes a special friend to help show how much fun rewards and role-playing can be. 

Kenton

How soon is too soon to let your uniqueness shine?

Kenton doesn’t have the best track record of getting the timing right but he really wants to get it perfect this time because he knows he’s not only met Mr. Right, he’s met the Handler of his dreams. The only problem? Bane doesn’t seem to know what that is.

Is there ever a right time to tell your vanilla boyfriend that he’d be a wonderful Handler?

Bane

How soon is too soon to ask someone if they know they’re not vanilla?

Bouncy, adorable, and slightly naughty, Kenton is everything Bane has always wanted in a partner. The only problem is that Bane isn’t as vanilla as he seems, but he isn’t sure how to bring that up to the possibly confused Kenton.

Is there ever a right time to ask your vanilla boyfriend if he’s ever thought about exploring puppy play?

“But I’m a princess boy because being a prince would be very boring. They just wear suits and look bored until they find their princesses. I’d rather be the princess. They have more fun and they wear pretty clothes. Littles should always have sparkly clothes.” – Addison

Addison knows princess littles are the best kind of littles but sometimes people don’t always understand. He’s a tiny bit worried his wonderful delivery man won’t understand but not enough to keep him from asking out the amazing man who brings him cookie dough and pizza.

Anyone who brings treats and smiles so big has to be the perfect Daddy, right?

Tate knows there’s no one in the world like the sunshiny cutie with a sweet tooth and a passion for silly games, but he doesn’t realize just how special Addison is until the charming man asks him out on a date…and about his views on Daddies and princess littles.

Sometimes finding Mr. Right is a struggle, but sometimes fate delivers him along with the best cookies a little ever had.

Ender

No. It means nothing. I’m just curious. It’s certainly not worth blowing up my life over, no matter what the crazy man thinks. Watching the pups is fun. A pastime. They’re cute. I’m not imagining having a tail. I don’t need a Handler. There’s no way I want to curl up on Leif.

There’s no way he’d let me, right?

Leif

Wow. He wants to what? He wants me to do what? Well, friends help friends. That’s what best friends and roommates are for. The pups are cute. He’s cute. He’s nuts but I can see why he’d like a tail. But with me? There’s no way he’d want me to do that. Does he realize what would happen if we did?

Just because I like control doesn’t mean I’d like that…right?

Love and tails are in the air when two Peeping Toms get more than they bargained for…friends at Leashes & Lace and a new way to see what was there all along.

Bennett knows traveling on his own won’t always go smoothly, but when he desperately needs to get away from his parents, seeing the world sounds like the best idea…until he gets stranded in London’s Heathrow Airport. When a freak snowstorm leaves him without a plan, he calls a friend who always has the answers…Skyler.

In walks Daddy to the rescue.

When the kinkiest phone tree ever leaves Robert searching for a stranded little in the crowded airport, the sexy Scottish Dom isn’t sure what he’s gotten himself into. But when meeting the sweet little leaves him with more questions than answers, all he knows is that he needs to help and he has to show the sweet Benny that he isn’t alone.

When it seems like everything is going wrong, sometimes fate steps in and sends a Daddy to the rescue.

Rohan can’t quite decide if letting his friend Conner play matchmaker is the smartest thing he’s ever done or the stupidest. As an asexual Dom who’s never quite found Mr. Right, after a string of misses, even he’s starting to admit it might be time to let the crazy owner of Bound & Controlled steer the show.

Dayton knows he shouldn’t trust Conner when he has that look on his face, but when the wicked sub promises him Mr. Right, common sense goes right out the window. But with most Doms at the club being too scared of hurting him to let him submit, he’s crossing his fingers and hoping that love and domination are finally in the air.

Sometimes finding Mr. Right is easy and sometimes he’s wrapped in an unconventional package…but love will always find a way.

A volte bisogna solo inseguire quello che si vuole… anche se ciò significa sottomettersi.

Asa ha sempre saputo di volere un Master da servire e amare… ma trovare qualcuno di cui fidarsi si è rivelato il suo più grande ostacolo. Non fa che chiedersi perché mai nessuno abbia più pazienza… fino a quando non vede l’uomo dall’altra parte della stanza al club Bound & Controlled. All’improvviso tutto ciò che deve sapere è la sua identità, affascinato da quel viso dall’aria familiare e lo sguardo irresistibile.

Quando un ritorno dal passato appare nel posto più inaspettato, Stuart sa che deve prendere diverse decisioni. Asa ha sempre visto le cose in modo un po’ diverso, e lui non riesce a immaginare di lasciarlo da solo a capire come funzioni il club o quel loro stile di vita. Ma è davvero il tipo giusto per quel dolce ragazzo dal passato travagliato?

A volte ci vogliono due anime leggermente spezzate per formare un amore perfetto.

Per anni, mantenere un tetto sopra la testa della sua famiglia è stato l’unico obiettivo di Landon. Del resto impegnarsi tanto e svolgere diversi lavori contemporaneamente è ciò che ha tenuto tutti loro a galla, ma questo non gli ha lasciato molto tempo per scrutare dentro di sé alla ricerca di ciò che desidera o per costruirsi una vita sociale. Però, adesso che le finanze sono al sicuro e lui può finalmente avere una propria routine si chiede una cosa… E ora?

Così serio, il corpo ricoperto di tatuaggi e impreziosito da piccoli gioielli in posti allettanti, non ha ancora chiaro in mente ciò che desidera, non sa nemmeno se è un sub o meno… Eppure qualcosa di lui attira Porter.

Porter, il cui mondo è precipitato in un limbo dopo la vendita della sua attività tanto da non essere più certo di cosa desiderare per il futuro. D’altronde dedicarsi all’azienda è stato sempre il suo unico obiettivo. E adesso, che tutto ciò che gli è rimasto è una vita vuota e troppo tempo a disposizione, si chiede una cosa… E ora?

Nel momento in cui due uomini si trovano a un bivio forse può essere naturale per loro unirsi per scoprire finalmente cosa siano veramente destinati a trovare nella vita…
L’amore.

Li aveva osservati così a lungo che probabilmente valeva come stalking.

Bryce era sicuro di sé, quando si trattava di lavoro e della sua famiglia, ma esitava quando si trattava di relazioni. Aveva trovato dei sub che lo attiravano e dei Dom che avrebbero potuto indebolirgli le ginocchia per una o due scene, ma nessuno che gli prendesse il cuore o che potesse capire com’era essere sia un Dom che un sub, fino a quando aveva visto Troy e Oliver…

Lo avevano osservato per così tanto tempo che avevano deciso di tenerlo.

Bryce si librava intorno a loro come una falena attirata da una fiamma. Girava in cerchio e osservava, ma non si avvicinava mai, non si avvicinava mai a loro. Troy e Oliver erano stanchi di aspettare. Sapevano di aver bisogno di un terzo uomo per essere completi e sapevano di aver bisogno di Bryce. Ma lui era pronto? Non volevano un’avventura di una notte o una storia casuale. Volevano tutto con lo switch confuso che aveva attirato la loro attenzione, e forse i loro cuori.

Grant aveva trovato il suo uomo perfetto… avvolto in seta e pizzo.

Grant ha sempre amato gli uomini più femminili. Un ragazzo sexy in lingerie è proprio perfetto per lui. Ma quando assomigli più a un buttafuori che a un agente assicurativo, i bei ragazzi se la danno a gambe. Carter sembra diverso, però. Quando Carter lo ha guardato, ha visto l’uomo reale sotto i tatuaggi e i muscoli. Può riuscire a far capire a Carter che gli piaceva così com’era, o i dubbi del ragazzo li terranno separati?

Carter aveva trovato il suo uomo perfetto… dolce, sexy e della stazza di un carro armato.

A Grant non sembra importare del suo look più femminile, ma non è troppo bello per essere vero? Un brutto appuntamento dopo l’altro ha lasciato Carter intimidito. Ora ha il Signor Giusto in piedi alla sua porta. Avrà il coraggio di essere se stesso e di far entrare Grant, o le sue paure li terranno separati?

Brent si era innamorato dell’unico Dom che non poteva avere.

La leggendaria sfortuna di Brent riguardo gli uomini era incontrovertibile. Se c’era uno che voleva essere Dom nel raggio di cento miglia, lui lo avrebbe trovato. Ma nemmeno lui poteva predire cosa sarebbe accaduto.

Calen si era innamorato dell’unico sub che non poteva avere.

Calen sapeva che molti lo consideravano un Dom del tipo fai-con-loro-una-scena-e-lasciali, ma come sarebbe potuto restare con un sub che non avrebbe capito? Quando un Dom non si conforma agli stereotipi, potrà mai trovare il giusto sottomesso?

Garrett era a un punto di rottura.

Doveva esserci un limite alle volte in cui si poteva vedere qualcuno da cui si era… attratti, ma per cui certamente non si aveva una cotta. I Dom non avevano cotte. Specialmente per un cliente che con tutta probabilità non era neppure gay. Regola 101: non flirtare con un cliente.

Wyatt stava perdendo il senno.

Nascondere la propria ossessione stava diventando sempre più difficile. Tutto ciò che desiderava era inginocchiarsi di fronte a Garrett e chiamarlo Master, ma il sexy agente assicurativo sembrava non accorgersi mai di lui. Notava solo il nervoso, timido imprenditore che si recava troppo spesso in agenzia.

Quando i due uomini continuano a non vedere quello che è proprio davanti ai loro occhi, ci vuole un intervento della famiglia per evidenziare l’ovvio. Che sono fatti l’uno per l’altro.
