He made my heart feel light, my hands sweaty. He filled my belly with butterflies every time he smiled. And when he was sitting next to me, the rest of the world ceased to exist.
I can always count on Fae Quin to melt my heart with her Christmas Daddies!
Robin and Ben’s story started with a cute but slightly awkward meeting on an airplane, and then spending some time together waiting for a lift before realising they shared a connection and were heading to the same place. They were so sweet and awkward together at first, and I loved how Robin kept seeking Ben out and the way he instantly felt safe around him.
I have to admit that I wasn’t entirely sure about Robin at first, but it soon became clear how he wore a mask to hide his vulnerability and insecurity. The changes him and Ben went through once they started to fall for each other were heartwarming, and I loved to see them being all sweet and happy together. I adored the moments they had together as a family, Robin were great with the girls and I liked seeing Ben in dad mode. The twins were cute and added some humour to the story, and I liked their slightly bizarre hobbies and interests.
I didn’t expect Ben to be as filthy as he was, but I was totally there for it! I loved his dominance in and out of the bedroom, and I think that he was exactly what Robin needed. The dirty talk was very hot, Fae Quin is great at writing steam and adding some kink to her stories!
If Only In Our Dreams was another amazing addition to Fae Quin’s Christmas Daddies, and I love the combination of sweetness, steam and humour in this series. If you’re looking for a series to read this Christmas, I really recommend this one!
“You are so incredibly sweet,” I said softly—always soft because I didn’t think anyone else had treated Robin gently.
