Daddy Issues by Kate Goldbeck

If you loved Problematic Summer Romance and Wild Card, you’ll LOVE Daddy Issues – this sweet and spicy age-gap single dad romance is bound to be your next obsession!


Sam doesn’t take much interest in Nick, a surprisingly cute single dad, when he first moves in next door. After all, she’s 26, working a dead-end waitressing job, navigating a situationship that’s both toxic and intoxicating, and living in her mom’s condo. She's too preoccupied with figuring out her life to seriously commit to anyone, let alone an ultra-dependable guy pushing forty.

With just one thin wall separating their bedrooms, Sam finds that she can't stay away from Nick. Maybe it's how endearingly nerdy he is, his love of Star Trek the perfect complement to Sam's comic book obsession. Or maybe it's how practical he is, fixing shelves and leaking faucets with those distractingly large hands…

But as Sam starts falling for Nick, she can't ignore how different their lives are. His world is stable, settled, and his daughter is right at the centre of it, while Sam still feels like everything is up in the air.

She’s so busy dealing with her quarter-life crisis – is she really ready to throw daddy issues into the mix, too?

Smart, sexy, relatable and hilarious, Daddy Issues isn't just one of my favorite books of the year, it's one of my favorite books periodIf you've ever felt stuck in your life, confused about your career or suffered through a situationship, you will see yourself in Sam, our perfectly imperfect heroine. Packed with Goldbeck's unique charm and trademark humour, the story swept me up and resolved more of my own issues than ten years in therapy.

Just like an order of Boneless Buffalo Wings, Daddy Issues is utterly moreish, tender and delicious with exactly the right amount of spice. I adored it.
