I knew Daddy Ronan would be my favourite, I just knew it. 

When I started seeing reviews for Highest Bidder all over bookstagram and booktok, I absolutely had to get my hands on it. But, because I’m me, I needed to read all the Salacious Players Club books immediately. So I bought them all, without ever having read anything by Sara Cate - and now, I must read everything she’s written. 

I’m a sucker for an age gap romance, it’s definitely one of my favourite tropes, and Ronan and Daisy were everything. It was sweet how at first Daisy wasn’t interested in older men, but in getting to know Ronan she fell anyways. The relationship developed at a quick pace, but it also seemed very natural and I just loved how they wanted to take care of each other. I really liked how their respective grief was treated, and in the end how they got to experience joy after everything.

did i think i would love this one? yes. did i? absolutely not. i could NOT for the life of me get over the fact that ronan was her mom's ex. i guess that is my hard NO when it comes to taboo romances. i am all for ex's parent but parent's ex is just too icky for me, i'm sorry. while i liked being in ronan's head (for the most part) i hated being in daisy's head. she was insufferable. i hated the whole on-going lie which obvi caused the 3rd act breakup. also the disordered eating was very not okay with me. it was not mentioned in the content warnings at the beginning of the book but it’s plays a role throughout the book, so if that’s a trigger for you, i would definitely skip this one. i love sara cate and have enjoyed this series, but this one was not for me, and that's okay.
