I haven't read that one, so I can't spoil the ending. For stories about complex father-child relationships, I've been following 'Daddy, Will You Ever Love Me?'. It's built around this tense premise where the son, now an adult, returns to confront his emotionally distant father, and their dialogue really digs into years of unspoken resentment and failed expectations. The ending there feels earned because the author focuses on the quiet, painful steps toward understanding rather than a simple reconciliation.
Here’s the thing about the ending: it’s wholesome without being saccharine. Tom’s journey from wary widower to someone tentatively embracing a new relationship feels earned. Eddie’s antics—like his hilariously transparent attempts to throw Tom and Elizabeth together—could’ve backfired, but the novel rewards his sincerity. The final scenes are understated, focusing on small moments: Tom holding Elizabeth’s hand, Eddie grinning at them when they think he’s Asleep. It’s a reminder that healing isn’t dramatic; it’s in the daily choices to let people in. Toby’s strength is making ordinary moments glow, and the ending does just that.
Eddie’s relentless matchmaking pays off by the end of 'The Courtship of Eddie’s Father,' though not exactly how he imagined. Tom, his dad, doesn’t just fall for Elizabeth because Eddie orchestrated it—he grows into the idea organically. The novel’s charm lies in how it shows adults rediscovering love through a child’s eyes. Eddie’s innocence and persistence soften Tom’s skepticism, and Elizabeth’s patience makes her feel like a natural fit rather than a forced solution. The ending isn’t flashy; it’s a soft sigh of relief, like watching a puzzle piece slide into place after fumbling with it for ages. Toby avoids clichés by letting Tom’s grief linger even as he opens up to new happiness. It’s the kind of ending that makes you smile but also leaves you thinking about how messy and beautiful family can be.
No grand declarations or last-minute twists—just a dad and his kid figuring things out. Tom’s gradual acceptance of Eddie’s matchmaking feels true to life, and Elizabeth’s warmth makes her feel like family long before the book admits it. The last few pages are like a hug: cozy, reassuring, and a little sad too, because you’re saying goodbye to characters who’ve grown on you. Eddie’s victory isn’t just about getting a new mom; it’s about seeing his dad smile again.
The ending? Pure comfort food in book form. Eddie’s dad finally stops resisting and lets himself love again, thanks to his son’s stubborn optimism. Elizabeth isn’t some magical fix—she’s just a good person who fits into their fractured little family. What sticks with me is Eddie’s quiet pride in the last chapter; he doesn’t gloat, just watches his dad laugh again like he’s won the lottery. Toby nails that kid-logic where love feels simple but adults make it complicated.

Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!

I thought my life was sorted.
I have a sweet fiancé Marcus, a cozy apartment and my wedding Pinterest board on lock. As The classic good girl, I saved myself for marriage, never gave anyone trouble and always made safe choices.
That was until I met Marcus’ dad Victor.
He is tall, suave and deliciously charming. Everything about him turns me on without trying. Just one handshake and my body lit up like fireworks. I panicked and told myself it was hormones.
I avoided him like a plague and even gave Marcus my virginity few months to our wedding but it didn’t work.
One girls’ night and one weird-tasting drink, I find myself in his bed begging like I’d lost my mind while he ruins me for his son.
Now I dream him every night while Marcus snores beside me like nothing’s changed.
He has no idea I’m picturing his father when he touches me and that it’s his dad’s name I’m biting back when I come.
I tell myself in the mirror every morning: “Stop! You’re not this person.”
But the second we’re in the same room? My willpower cracks.
This isn’t cute at all. It’s messy, embarrassing and terrifying.
The safest choice feels lonelier every day and the dangerous one feels like I’m finally breathing.
What am I to do when the person I’m supposed to marry isn’t the one setting my body on fire and the one who is happens to be the last man I’m allowed to want?
How long can I keep this affair hidden from Marcus when the wedding is so close and Victor is determined to have not just my body?

"This is the last time, Thea." He thrust himself entirely into me, and I whimpered.
"Yes, Daddy."
That was the lie we told ourselves.
***
He was my father's best friend. The man I called "Uncle Stellan." Now, my father is gone, and Stellan Vaughn is my new guardian.
My new boss.
He’s cold, ruthless, and the most powerful man in New York. He’s supposed to protect me, to guide me.
But at my father's funeral, when his dark eyes met mine, what I saw wasn't comfort. It was a hunger that lit a matching fire in me.
That's when I realized, there was no going back for this man and me, nor were we prepared to experience both of our lives getting f**ked over.
He thinks I’m an innocent, grieving girl. He doesn't know I'm just as broken as he is. He doesn't know I want his control to shatter.
He's the one man I can never have. The one man who could destroy my future. And the only one I'm willing to sin for.
Stéphane had never desired Aleen; she was off-limits as his wife's daughter, Christine. But something about her captivated and locked him in, igniting his appetite and desire for her.
Stéphane knew he should keep his distance; he shouldn't have any longing for his stepdaughter.
He shouldn't want to know how she tastes or long to feel her tightness wrapped around him as he buried himself deep inside her.
However, all resolve to resist was shattered when Aleen boldly made the first move, bringing Stéphane to his knees and causing him to taste the forbidden when she called him 'Daddy'.
“Ah, yes.” Cassie moans and wraps her arms around his neck.
She pulls on him and their lips meet with passion. Kissing Mathias like this while his cock stretches her walls is the biggest dream of her life. She can’t hold back her moans and rolls her hips in sync with him.
“Mm, yeah.” Mathias groans into their kiss, likes Cassie being responsive to him. “You know how to fuck, baby girl.” He licks her parted lips while his lustful eyes pierce hers. “It’s so sexy...”
Cassie asks, smiling. “Yeah?” She is in the clouds and feels like a temptress. Hearing these words from Mathias is the biggest pleasure.
“Fuck, yeah.” He buries his face in the crock of her neck with a groan, licking and sucking the soft skin. Both arms are around her narrow waist now, he rolls his hips faster.
***

Her dream job is restaurant management and she wants to open her own place.
Also..
She had a crush on her father's friend Mathias since her high school years. Does she still have feelings for him?
