Sela Halstead lost her innocence in a way that no sixteen-year-old should ever have to endure. She’s spent years trying to forget that night even while wondering about the identities of the monsters who brutalized her—until a telltale tattoo flashes across Sela’s TV screen. The incriminating ink belongs to Jonathon Townsend, the millionaire founder of The Sugar Bowl, a website that matches rich older men with impressionable young women. Obsessed with revenge, Sela infiltrates Townsend’s world, only to come face-to-face with a tantalizing complication: Beckett North, his charismatic business partner.

The tech mastermind behind The Sugar Bowl, Beck always gets what he wants, in business and in bed. And yet, for a man who’s done every dirty thing imaginable, there’s something about the naïve, fresh-faced Sela that sparks his hottest fantasies. Because with her, it’s not just about sex. Beck opens up to her in ways he never has with other girls. So why does he get the feeling that she’s hiding something? In a world of pleasure and power, the shocking truth could turn them against each other—or bind them forever.

Note: Sugar Daddy ends on a cliffhanger. Sela and Beck’s story continues in Sugar Rush and Sugar Free!

REVIEW: SUGAR DADDY is the first installment in Sawyer Bennett’s contemporary, adult SUGAR BOWL erotic, romance trilogy focusing on college student Sela Halstead, and IT guru and co-owner of The Sugar Bowl dating website Beckett North.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Beck and Sela) using present day and some memories and flashbacks, SUGAR DADDY focuses on revenge, retribution, secrets and lies, and falling in love. Approximately nine years earlier, at the age of sixteen, Sela was drugged and brutally raped by several college boys leaving our heroine emotionally, mentally and physically battered with PTSD, flashbacks and depression. Fast forward to present day where one of her rapists is now part owner of an exclusive dating website known as The Sugar Bowl, and Sela is determined to get her revenge. As Sela targets Jonathon Townsend at a Sugar Bowl party, she will come face to face with his business partner Beckett North, and the man who will change her future. What ensues is a building relationship that leads to something more until Sela tries to uncover all of Beckett and Jonathon’s secrets.

The relationship between Beck and Sela begins as an arrangement-one month together where Beck will become Sela’s ‘sugar daddy’, and Sela offers up everything Beckett could want. As the story line builds, so too does the relationship becoming something more until Sela pursues her journey of revenge. The $ex scenes are seductive, provocative and erotic.

SUGAR DADDY is a story with a little bit of mystery and suspense, dark secrets and dangerous lies, relationships and power. Our heroine treads a fine line, never revealing the truth yet hoping for an opportunity to take down Jonathon Townsend while keeping her lover in the dark.

Sawyer Bennett’s SUGAR DADDY is passionate, energetic and engaging. The premise is captivating; the characters are intense and emotional; the romance intimate and moving. The story line ends on a cliff hanger as SUGAR DADDY is book one in a three part trilogy. You can’t go wrong with Sawyer Bennett.
