Titus and Jackson meet thru an App designed by an Omega that helps Sugar Daddy Alphas find their ideal mate. These stories are so riveting to read. Can't wait for more to read in this series.
2.5 stars. i don’t want to say that a book with alpha and omegas without heat is a wasted opportunity, but- okay yes i’m saying it. i also didn’t like the story. but it was decently written.
Third book in the series. Nice mpreg romance. I loved the book and I recommend it.
Jackson wasn't looking for romance, just a rich man who paid well. Titus wanted to be with someone who would make him forget his sadness, someone who would make him smile.
Jackson is a rebel who did not accept the life his father had planned for him. The life he has now is not easy, but he's free. But freedom doesn't feed him. He needs money for him and for Cieran. He is a good man who thinks of his friend, who will never leave him behind. And being part of the app will help them.
I don't think he would want to deceive anyone. He would have pretended to have a good time, for the money, but he wouldn't have let things go far. He would have walked away if he thought the Alpha was falling in love with him.
With Titus he doesn't have to pretend. It's easy to be with him, natural. He feels comfortable, hates lying to him, doesn't want to take advantage of him. They could be something else, and that possibility no longer frightens him.
Titus had been in love before. Liam was the person he wanted to share everything with, and he lost him too soon. He blames himself for not spending more time with him, for not paying attention to him. He misses him.
He feels lonely, he needs someone by his side. He wants to connect with someone, just like Quinton did, but he hasn't been lucky. Until he meets Jackson and everything changes. He knows he's getting too close to him, that they barely know each other, but he doesn't care. Jackson makes him happy, he makes him smile. He wants to take care of him, protect him. He wants their relationship to be something more, not just sex, not just money, and Jackson proves it more than once that it could be.
If he had connected with another omega who only wanted money, who had told him that he needed it, he would have been respectful of him, he would have treated him well. He would never have forced him to do anything. He would have helped him to find a job, or to study. He would have cared about him, and they would have become friends.
Jackson was afraid to tell Titus the truth, he didn't want to lose him. It wasn't just for money, but because he liked it.
Titus was surprised to learn the truth, but he didn't let it influence his feelings. He wanted to be with Jackson, and their common past didn't matter to him.
I love them together. They come from the same world, but they have lived very different lives. And they complement each other. They are what the other wants, what they didn't allow themselves to dream. Titus didn't think he would love again, and Jackson didn't even think about it. Now they're together, and it's perfect.
I love the relationship between Jackson and Cieran. He's his friend, he's more innocent than he is, he'll do anything to take care of him and protect him. He is his brother. How could he eave Cieran behind? Never.
I also love Titus' relationship with Abigail. She works for him, but she is also a friend. He trusts her completely.
i read this book as part of an arc program. This is the third book in the East Coast Sugar Daddies series. In this book, Titus is an alpha who lost his omega years ago and now longs for companionship again. Titus owns a number of hotels in the city and is looking for new businesses. Jackson is an omega who joins the agency in hopes of getting money for him and his friend. Jackson was born into a wealthy family and had a good education until he had a disagreement with is father and left home. Jackson is homeless and looks after another omega named Cieran. When Jackson and Titus are matched, they have an instant connection and both think they know the other from somewhere. When Titus tells Jackson about a winery he is interested in buying, Jackson agrees to go to California with him. They go on the trip and get closer and Titus remembers where he knows Jackson from. Jackson knows he has to go to Cieran and see if he is okay after they return to New York. Jackson finds Cieran hurt and vows to get revenge for him. Titus wants Jackson to be with him and is willing to wait for him. I loved this book. I thought Jackson was a great guy who was protective of those he cared for and wanted Cieran to be looked after. I thought Titus wanted to be with Jackson and was not about to listen to anyone who thought it was a bad idea. Another great one from this series.
Jackson came from a rich boy background, and he turned his back on it to make his own way - not wanting to cave in to his father and the expectations he had for his life and business.
Titus is a wealthy older man - a widower with two grown children. He finds himself very lonely after the death of his husband.
Aaron and his magical match making connect the two - and a good if difficult match is made - then Titus realizes whose family Jackson is from .
So do you hang onto what you want even if it is complicated, or do you move onto the next thing?
Titus just might finally realize there is more to life than work - something he has not felt since the death of his first husband.
Jackson may not want to cave in to demands and expectations from his father, but he might just enjoy some of the finer things in his life again - especially if they help him care for friends and himself - and especially if they come with love.
Some matches are complex, but deep and rich.
A great m/m romance ! Part of a fun series, but easy to read as a stand alone.

This book has a little danger, a lot of subterfuge and so much love.
Titus is a simple alpha - he needs to take care of an omega. He is a co-CEO so he is not a slouch and recognizes his need to spoil someone so he agrees to using the ECSD app and is paired with Jackson.
Jackson is an omega with secrets which keep him living on the streets. Oh gosh, his friend, Cieran, is like a sweet puppy who Jackson constantly protects and helps. Signing up for ECSD is his best way to get cash so he can protect Cieran.
So how is this story different? It is different because Jackson is fearless and does not let his omega-ness hold him back. Aw man, there are so many great moments and tense times. Cieran just cannot stay out of trouble and Jackson feels so much guilt for using Titus he hates himself. The one rock throughout is Titus. Once he commits, he is all in and ready to save the day.

This is a book about second chances, in its own way. Jackson has made decisions that are for him, even if it has taken him to a place he never knew he would be. But it did get him the opportunity to meet his friend or rather the person he sees as a brother, someone he looks out for. Finally deciding he needs to start to get life back on track, he goes and gets added to the sugar daddy app. This is where we meet Titus, he is lacking real companionship. The omegas he has been with before have no substance to mesh their wits together, so he goes back to see if someone new has joined. Someone challenging, so he has good communication with. This is quite a good book with second chances, friendship and quite a few twists. Everything you need in a good book. This is an absolute must grab book, you won't regret it.

This seems to become a guilty pleasure of mine. I keep complaining that these books are too superficial in plot development even for this genre, but then I keep on reading them anyway. And I actually liked this one best yet in this series. 3.5 stars for it being what it wants to be and doing what was possible with only 150 pages. I actually did like the writing and the characters a lot. What irked me most was that ridiculous attempt at a suspense part at the end, that came out of nowhere and doesn't connect to the rest of the story at all. And as always I would have liked it if more of the poked at plot developments would have been actually developed in a satisfying way. We never really learn what happened with Jackson and his father and if they ever talked it out. And what's with Cieran? For all the implied importance we know a great deal of nothing about him. Oh well, there was a not so subtle opening for him getting his own book, I guess.
I loved this sweet story between Jackson and titus. I'm not usually a huge fan of huge age gaps but I feel like the author made it work here between these two. Jackson was looking for a change and wanted to things the right away and turn his life around and heard about this app that sets up omegas and alphas. Titus was an older alpha who had his chance and love and he worked all the time and decided he could use someone to help pass the time and keep him occupied so he joined the app as well and him and Jackson hit it off rather quickly but the app was made for just a good time and nothing permanent but is that all these two will want after one really amazing,hott date? This one was a page Turner for me for sure. I read it all in one sitting! I cant wait for the next one!

This book holds-up well as a stand-alone, though there are mentions of other MCs from past books.
I wasn't sure how I would feel about Jackson during the first chapter, I wasn't sure how we were going to go from his initial attitude to my expected HEA in the short distance of the story, but somehow it worked. It's still a very fast paced story, but I rather liked Titus and Jackson together. Jackson is still trying to figure out exactly what he wants to do with his life and Titus is much more experienced, but I thought they complemented each other very well.
Jackson came from money. He had everything, but he didn't want that life. So, living on the streets, he's decided he needs a bit of a hand. When he meets with Aaron to get set up on the ECSD app to meet an older, rich man, Aaron is a bit worried.
Titus has been there, done that. He's ready to move on to a relationship that has the potential to last. So when Aaron tells him of a new omega, he's ready to be set up.
I really enjoyed the aspect of this story that dealt with living on the streets and what Jackson and his friend Ciaran went through. The romance part of this was just a bit too fast for my taste. I think I would have enjoyed a longer story here.
What a wonderful book. What I loved most was that Jackson knew what he wanted in life and in a way it cost him his family, but he gained so much more. I loved how protective he is of his friend on the street, such a special part of the book. But now he needs money, so he decided to sign up on the East Coast Suggar Daddies. Older Alphas that love to pamper younger omegas and take them out. It was perfect, but so was Titus, the alpha he was matched with. Their relationship was so perfect, but there was a secret between them that could affect it. Jackson needed to think, he had to take care of his friend. Amazing story that I wish was a bit longer th see the birth.

Jackson is a bright young omega who desperately needs money to turn his life around so he joins East Coast Sugar Daddies and gets more than he bargained for. Titus is an older alpha, a caring man, and a successful CEO. He is a widower who needs someone to ease his loneliness. The attraction and chemistry between Titus and Jackson is intense right from their first meeting and only grows deeper the more they are together. This is an entertaining story full of interesting characters, a great storyline, an awkward twist, some violence, laughs, a quirky, troublemaking friend, and a genuine connection that leads to sweet love and a satisfying HEA. I enjoyed this book and definitely recommend it.

A steamy and interesting May/December A/O romance. The timing for these MC's meeting was really perfect. They were both at a turning point in their lives where they were ready for something more. Titus was ready for love and a new challenge and Jackson was ready for love and a new direction. Jackson and Titus will steam up your kindle.
Titus really acted the mature alpha in this story, he truly was a man to admire and to love. He handled a complex situation with honesty and directness that made everything happen with little angst. Jackson was loyal to his friend and found a way to take a stand that enabled him to be proud of himself.
i am enjoying this series and look forward to the next book.
Another fantastic addition to the East Coast Sugar Daddies series I loved it. Titus is an older alpha and with his kids off to college he’s lonely especially after the death of his omega husband, he has everything that he could ever want but love. Jackson came from a wealthy family but instead of doing what his father wanted of him he rebels and ends up living on the streets, he needs money so he joins the East Coast Sugar Daddies and gets matched up with Titus. Titus finds out what family Jackson has come from which makes things more complicated but will love win out in the end or will the complication be too much for Titus?. I loved this story it’s a fantastic read and I highly recommend this book it’s definitely well worth the read.
Jackson was determined to make his own way in life once he figured out what his interests were rather than being handed the reins from his father. Titus was still grieving his omega but realized he was lonely enough that it was time to move on and find happiness again. Neither Jackson nor Titus realized they had a deeper connection until later, which made no difference once their secrets came out. I thought it was amazing what Jackson did to avenge Cieran and convinced Aaron to take him under his wing. I laughed at Cieran's penchant for capturing and collecting wild animals.
'I received an ARC of this book and voluntarily reviewed it.'
This time around is the story of Titus and Jackson. Titus is a lonely widowed alpha and Jackson is homeless trying to make it one day at time with a sweet naïve friend in tow. This story is medium angst with drama. The story flows beautifully through Titus and Jackson meeting, having instant chemistry, separating, an attack to the naïve friend on the street, Jackson seeking revenge and in the end a beautiful well deserved happy ending.

Getting better with book number three! This book held my interest had me wondering what will happen next and made me really like one of the characters.
Character breakdown;
Jackson: I loved him loved the street kid smart and his need to be a protector. He was an interesting omega.
Titus: a little dull not that much alpha-ness shown but he was a fair character nonetheless.
The only thing I don't like about this series is how easily the alphas fall for the omegas. But I can bypass that, also I really would like to know what will become of Cieran, kid was adorable! Lol
Nice story. Titus sounds like a nice man. Jackson sounds young & whiney. Who gives up the good life to deliberately live as a homeless person? Characters were likeable. Aaron still hanging strong. Fun to hear all the guys are friends. This was a nice story. The ending got some spiced up action that was spirited. The HFN ending was fit with the series. I would like a little more 'kick/depth' in the relationship. There's a certain predicitability in all the couples. Maybe that's okay after all they are using the app. I received an ARC from Booksprout for a review.
Well written with great characters and amazing chemistry. These two start out on a date and each realize they know the other but keep that knowledge to themselves for days until it all comes out during a phone call. Can they work it out and make it work? Page turning twists and drama keep you on the edge of your seat. A must read , another great book in this amazing series. Can't wait for number four.
this book was so full of suprises. i like the character of Titus and what he had been through. Jackson was such a unique person with a history to solve. just when you think things get better, you get thrown into another twist.

Jackson just wants to make it on his own. Titus finds himself lonely with his mate gone and children grown and on there own. The two of them met through ECSD app run by Aaron. They have a great connection that leads to love and an HEA. This is a great stand alone book but also part of a series.

I loved this younger man/older man semi-taboo story. The characters were interesting, and the development of the relationship and the men's feelings was believable. There was just enough tension with Titus' business connection with Jackson's father to add some angst and uncertainty to the relationship.
