My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Rivi, a shy and self-conscious little, has long yearned for a nurturing connection but never dared to seek it—until a surprising discovery about his uncle Trent’s kink-friendly Christmas gathering offers a glimmer of possibility. Determined to attend, Rivi sees the holiday as a chance to finally find the daddy he's been dreaming of. Briar, a seasoned dom and daddy, feels emotionally adrift despite his experience. Burned out and uninspired, he accepts Trent’s invitation to the estate, hoping for a change. What he doesn’t expect is Rivi—a gentle soul who reignites something powerful within him. Set against the backdrop of a cozy, kink-positive Christmas retreat, their meeting sparks a transformative journey of trust, desire, and emotional renewal. It’s a story of second chances, self-acceptance, and the magic of finding someone who sees—and cherishes—you completely.
I really enjoyed this story where Rivi’s journey begins with deep insecurity—his quiet nature, appearance, and fear of rejection have kept him from embracing his identity as a little. The story explores how self-acceptance is a courageous act, especially when it means stepping into spaces where one feels exposed. His decision to attend the party is a turning point, symbolizing his readiness to be seen and valued. The dom/little dynamic is portrayed not as control, but as care. The story emphasised that power exchange, when rooted in trust and mutual respect, can be profoundly nurturing. Briar’s protective instincts and Rivi’s yearning for guidance create a bond that’s emotionally rich and deeply affirming. Easy to feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like DDLB dynamic.
