Brianna Hale at her best! Amazing storytelling. Sexy and great story!
Can’t wait for book 2.
Wow what great story! This book had some great drama, lots of good sex and was also a fantastic love story! The characters were so full of angst and problems but Misha and Ciara are well put together. The supporting cast for this book were phenomenal and Damir is scary! Misha and Ciara come together because he wants to help her and she does indeed need the help. You can’t pick your family and maybe things are not always what they seem. What this book tells you is be honest and see where the chips may fall!
I can’t wait for the next in the series so I can see what happens to everyone!
Stern older man and the young woman he falls for
I bought this book via amazon kindle and am leaving my review voluntarily.
Spoilers:
Ciara, young college student who finds out she is responsible for her late fathers debt (Debt her father amassed by stealing from a criminal)
Misha, older man and brother of the criminal Ciaras father stole from, wants to help her pay back the debt without his brother or Ciara finding out.
Ciara signs up to be a sugar baby and Misha contacts her to be her sugar daddy. Along the way, both develop feelings for one another. Ciara and the criminal brother find out the truth Misha was trying to hide. Thugs come after Ciara and Misha has to change plans.
With Mishas brother a threat to them both, they leave town. It takes a bit, but eventually Ciara forgives Misha. There will be a book 2.
Funny. Well-written. A contemporary romance with a dark edge. Typically the premise of this book is not something I would jump at – but it’s Brianna Hale so she pulled it off. All the characters in this book had personality, plus a heroine who was not bratty in an annoying way. A saucy & smart heroine + a grumpy, surly, yet caring Hero? I rooted for this couple. Plus this had a plot that made sense. Slightly over the top, but I could suspend disbelief. This book had a fun vibe I fully enjoyed reading
Hale Does Delicious AGAIN
*read on KU. No need of sugar daddies called promo teams*
I loved this book. The new covers are gorgeous. Name an author that does Daddy better than Hale. Yes, I’m waiting. Oh, you can’t name one? Well, I can’t either! This book was so full of humor. I CANNOT. It had such hilarious moments. I loved the two main characters, and they were entertaining to spend time with. It was a definite page-turner, and once I finished this book, I HAD TO CONTINUE WITH BOOK TWO RIGHT AWAY!
ORIGINAL COMMENT
Off to read book two! Book one was delicious!
i enjoyed reading about Misha being more entranced and protective over ciara. ‘Daddy’ books arent something i often read but i liked the touch of darkness and ciara’s innocense in this. lucky girl to have landed a Misha unlike the one who caught his brother’s eye
that epilogue of bethany though… holy mother of all apes, that was hot and scary haha
Brianna Hale is a new author for me, but what I’ve read I certainly liked. Come to Daddy is intriguing, hot, heart-pumping, all wrapped up in slightly bad boy, Micha, also known as Daddy. Clara, our young heroine is merely trying to survive life. After gaining the debts of her dead parents, she is forced to find a way to pay back the Russian Mafia but at a cost. Hence her becoming a Sugar Baby. I actually enjoyed the fact that Clara researched what it was and how it worked before she made a deal with her rich, good-looking Daddy. Clara is a really strong, female character which is nice to see. She knows what she has to do and won’t go against her moral compass. She stands up for herself and tells Micha like it is.
Micha is also an interesting character as we see two sides of him in this book. On one side he is this ultra-cool, non-emotional, grumpy man. But on the other side, he cares about what happens to Clara and although it takes a little while to show it, he does care for her. The background to who he is and the relationships he has with other people but especially his brother, Damir is very interesting and I like the sass that he gets from his PA.
The Sugar Daddy and Sugar Baby story line certainly was interested and sometimes the word ‘daddy’ could be a little bit cringe-worthy, but that is also what made the book fun. The are definitive moments of sexiness as well as intrigue, especially in scenes where Micha’s brother Damir turns up (can we say psycho!).
Overall, this was a really steamy, exciting read and I can’t wait to read more from this author.
ARC received for a fair and honest review.

I absolutely love anything written by Ms. Hale. She always brings on the sassy heroines and those delicious alpha daddies.
Come to Daddy is no different. The story of Misha and Ciara pulls you into a world of lust, secrets, and danger. Those three combined together is a sure way to cause an explosion. Hale does it right. Every time.
If you like age gap, sexy steamy scenes, and a hint of danger lurking in the background, Come to Daddy is for you.
I can’t wait for Lap of Luxury and get into the mind of Misha’s brother, Damir.
I accidentally brought this book on amazon, and boy am i so glad i did, Brianna Hale knows how to write amazing daddy stories, ande this one is no exception, its well written and hard to put down
Sugar daddy/sugar baby stories are my guilty pleasure, i love them so much.
While this is a sugar daddy/sugar baby story, there’s also more to it. sure it starts as sugar daddy/sugar baby but it becomes more, it grows and evolves into something bigger and that makes me love it even more. Mischa and Ciara just hook you in and dont let go
If you’re thinking about maybe giving this book a shot, i highly recommended you do, you’ll be pleasantly surprised
I loved Misha and Ciara’s story!
I loved this!
After discovering Brianna Hale from her book, The Protégé, I was determined to gobble up everything she had to offer. Next on my list was Come To Daddy and she did not disappoint!! We meet Ciara who is struggling to pay off her late parents’ debt to a dangerous man. In comes Misha. This older, sexy, wealthy man wants to help our heroine but wants nothing to do with her. However, that doesn’t stop the attraction that blossoms between these two. If you are a fan of age-gap this is the book for you! I highly, highly recommend it and can’t wait for book two in the series to come out!!
I loved Misha!!! He’s what every woman wants in a sugar daddy. Older brooding alpha male with lots of money. I loved how his character evolves when he meets Ciara. They’re truly a perfect match.
Fast paced, fun read with plenty of steamy scenes. That left me wanting more.
When it comes to Daddy books, Brianna is one of my favorites. There’s only a few that can pull it off and make it believable and she knocked it out of the park with Come to Daddy. My favorite one of hers yet. It could possibly be due to the plot of the story. Lots of suspense with twist and turns. At first, I didn’t know how to take Misha. His personality kind of threw me off but once you get to know his background and why it starts to make sense then you can’t help but fall in love with him. The chemistry between him and Ciara is scorching HOT! What is it about these Russian men? His brother Damir is intense. I’m so intrigued to know more about him. Looking forward to seeing what’s in store in the next book of the series.
“My heart is true, and my heart is forever. I don’t know how I will live without your sweetness. I have known you, and now you will be an open wound in my heart for the rest of my life.”
Misha thinks he doesn’t need or want love until he meets “sugar baby” Ciara. Ciara is paying off her father’s debt to a crime lord. There is so much more to Misha and Ciara than you think. I loved this book and can’t wait to read the next one! A kinky hot read.
I received a copy of this book and am leaving a review.
Our heroine is in debt to the wrong person, all because of her parents misdeeds. Can she escape this situation with her life, let alone her sanity?
This book was an unexpected pleasure which exceeded my expectations in all regards. I was hoping for a simple, fun read but instead I got a gripping romance and an education. Learning about “sugaring” was fun and educational. But watching the chemistry between our hero and heroine was something else entirely.
The story was very well written, with strong, well developed characters. The story sucked me in from the first chapter and definitely kept me reading well past my bedtime. I just had to know what came next and wasn’t satisfied until I reached the end. And as an added bonus/twist, the epilogue is one of the most intriguing I have ever read. I am very much looking forward to the next book in this series.
Highly recommended.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout for review purposes.
OMFG you guys this book was AMAZING. Mrs. Hale sure know how to keep you glued to the pages and making you turning them fast enough until you get to the very end and craving even more after it. She does that every single time to me with all her books. I just keep wanting more and more of her stories. “Come to Daddy” was no exception. I was stuck to the pages at the beginning. I was intrigued what will happen next so I kept reading and reading. I must say I got to understand the suggar daddy- sugar baby life style way much better. And Misha was one hell of a suggar daddy. I loved him so much… fuck I even want him to be my sugar daddy.
Guys trust me you all need to read this book. It is book one of “Love don’t cost a thing” duet and I so can’t wait for the next book. Even though this one doesn’t quite ends in a clifhanger but it still leave you with this WTF?! end but you will see what I mean when you read the book. So please do yourself a favour and read it. One of my top best reads, but again when I talk about Briannah Hale all of her books are one of my most favorite. If you love dark and steamy and hot as hell romances then this one is 100% for you. Mrs. Hale thank you for bringing daddy Misha into my life and hell I can’t wait to meet his brother
{I received this as an ARC in exchange for an Honest review}
This book was EVERYTHING!!!! Misha and Ciara have stolen my heart! This book is so different and so amazing! A dark and sexy romance at it’s finest. This book took me by surprise and I loved every minute of it!! Misha is a dark knight stepping out of his comfort zone and putting himself in danger all to save Ciara. Ciara is backed against a wall with her life on the line she turns to something that she can control. She sets out to find herself a Sugar Daddy. Misha is amazing! I love him so much! He sees that Ciara is in trouble and with the advice of his assistant decides to become her sugar daddy. He has no idea what he is doing and it so adorable. He really tires to help Ciara and can’t help himself from falling for her. Ciara is such an amazing character. She has so much thrown at her all at once and she handles as best she can. When she meets Misha she it is most definitely not love at first sight. After more time spent together they get to learn more about each other. She starts to fall for Misha and she knows she shouldn’t. He is paying her for dates but she can’t help it. I absolutely loved them!! Their relationship is so different and complicated but so amazing!!! This book will keep you on your toes and heat up your kindles! It is sexy and dark and so perfect!!! “Come To Daddy” is everything! Do yourself a favor and pick it up!!!!!
Well, this was quite different than I expected and all for the better. I enjoyed pretty much everything about this book.
This hero was not a people person. He was growly and irritable. Despite coming from an awful background and being connected to an even worse present that represented danger to the heroine, as well as anyone who would double cross them, he actually tends to be a bit of a teddy bear. I enjoyed his interactions with his personal assistant as well as his seemingly inability to function correctly on a first date. But once he opens his eyes to the heroine, all systems are go.
I wasn’t sure why a girl would put herself into the position of a sugar baby. I assumed greed. Pleasantly, that was not the case and knowing the reason, I was raring to get further into this story. The heroine was smart and engaging, and once she didn’t have to “show” for her sugar daddy, she was snarky and honest. It didn’t take her long to let the real “her” out once she thought the hero was no longer a contender for her “daddy”.
I was a bit disappointed when the hero didn’t shine through when confronted by the evil of his brother. He feared him and while I understood it, I didn’t like it. I would have liked him to have been all alpha all the time. He does rise to the occasion when necessary but the lack of that backbone earlier on crumbled some of my enjoyment.
As for the “baby” and “daddy”, I felt that these titles were forced on the characters and when they used them it didn’t ring true. Nevertheless, I did enjoy the story and was very disappointed by the happy for now ending as I wanted to see this couple completely at peace. Not sure if the next book is something I want to go into as the hero seems completely irredeemable to me.
