Readers will need to have read the previous installment so they are not lost. This book follows Tracey and her four men who she is to wed and be bound to, The story picks up where the previous one left off, We get glimpses of Tracey's family, friends, her loves, and their family. There are some sex scenes, a couple of attacks, kidnappings and new characters. Some may with the series was combined into one large book instead of smaller books. This flow seems to keep the readers engaged. There were some slow bits and some that are hard to follow but as always Trinity delivers, Waiting with baited breath for the next installment.

This book was the third in the series but not having read the two before it I think the author did an excellent job of filling in the prior books so that you had a clue what had happened. Tracy has always dreamt of a faraway place with a chance at love and family and now that she has met her four mates she may have a shot at it if she can keep herself safe. In this new earth three of her four mates are alien and she has recently gotten back her family but someone is out to stop Tracy being with their prince. I wish I had read the prior two books because my brain had a few questions but for the most part it was a good story and Tracy is very independent and bratty but I think her mates will calm her down.

I have not read the other books in this series, but this book did not start off with any back story. It was like opening a book in the middle and trying to start from there. That might have been ok with a contemporary book but not a science fiction one. I had not idea what was going on or why and it was never explained. I also did not like the writing style. It was very stilted and jumped from one thing to another and from person to person with no lead in. I kept having to go back and forth to try to find out what was happening and who was speaking as it some times seemed to change mid-sentence. All in all I did not find it an enjoyable read.

Another good story by Trinity Blacio. Interesting story concept. Good writing and storytelling. I did like it.

How this book has scored so highly with other reviewers new to the author, I genuinely do not know.

The main theme of the whole book is that Tracey has 4 new 'mates', who won't let her wear clothes / go anywhere / do anything / pretty much have an opinion, tbh. Someone's trying to attack them before they cement their bond, which apparently is done in a massive orgy (fair enough, I guess.)

After this orgy, she has even less privacy (I wasn't even sure that was possible, tbh) in her thoughts anymore, and to make matters worse, she is literally BRANDED with the 'family' whatever.
Oh, and when she sleeps, every night from now on she has to sleep with one of her 'mates' cocks in her. As if this book wasn't misogynistic and weird enough.

I mean, really??!! The human being in me was screaming internally through pretty much the majority of this book. My poor partner got an earful, and was asking why I kept on reading. In all honesty, I do not k1now. I kinda wish I hadn't, it just kept getting worse.

I mean, if humiliation and worship / complete female domination is your thing, then great, you'll probably enjoy this book. If not, it's a bit sketchy to say the least.

That's not even touching the poor writing with a bargepole. Usually I give ARCs a pass, but the amount of times 'to' and 'too' were misused were another annoyance in themselves.

This is book 3 in a series. Whilst I got into the story quite quickly, there was pretty much no recap or explanation as to previous storylines or world building. But it can be read as a standalone.

If I could give a 0 stars, I would've.

I received this ARC from Netgalley in exchange for my honest opinion.

Tracy is used to feeling trapped and lonely. So taking a moment to get her bearings is something she does alone. But that is changing along with the world she lives in. Can Tracy accept the changes brought by her growing family?
Loving Dreams is third in Trinity Blacio’s The Sugar Daddies Series. I was surprised by just how much pain Tracy is hiding, from her friends, from her family, from herself. I love that Ms. Blacio gave her the opportunity to release the pain and see what blinded her too. I also enjoyed seeing Tracy give her men a peek at the woman inside. Sal, Seth, Gresan and Evan may be new as a family unit but the desire for Tracy is true. I loved that Ms. Blacio allowed Tracy time to accept the changes her men bring. I love that Tracy gets a moment to breathe even as she learns about the alpha males that are hers. I appreciated that Ms. Blacio realized that becoming a family wouldn’t be easy. She gave them time to learn each other even as the danger around them increased. This story is an enjoyable quick read. I loved returning to this world Ms. Blacio is creating and can’t wait to see where she will take us next.

Apparently this is not a standalone and I haven't read the prior books so the beginning was way too confusing. It just jumps right into the aliens being here. The author does a lot of telling not showing. I was not drawn into the story. The heroine is very annoying and juvenile. I expected her to stamp her feet and pout several times. I had a difficult time to finish this book. It was just ok for me. You have to read the prior books to understand this book., There should have been labels on this book. MMFMM of all variations. Don't read if you aren't into that.

Trinity Blacio is such a great author. I have read several of her books in another series but this was the first one in this series. I did struggle a little at the beginning trying to figure out what was going on. I will go back and read some of the others in this series so I can understand the relationships between the characters. I think Tracy is a great strong and independent woman.
Thank you Netgalley and publishers for letting me read this book.

I did not realize this book was part of a series so, I think I need to go back and read the first two to help completely my view of this one. I mean, you can definitely read this one without reading the others but it always helps to have a background!

I did enjoy this book though!

You can always count on Trinity Blacio to have fast-paced, interesting books, and this is one of them! Action from the top, this was a book I totally enjoyed! Tracy finds she's mated to four men-and three are aliens! She is quite overwhelmed but it feels right just the same. Each man learns his place within Tracy's heart. But there is always trouble. Outside enemies are everywhere. Her alpha men have to learn to work together to not only keep Tracy safe, but each other as well!

This is Book 3 in the My Sugars Daddies series. I received a copy from Netgalley for an honest review. I haven’t read the first 2 books in the series, but I understood most of the things happening. You would definitely have more of the background if you read the first 2 and would understand it better so I would probably say, yes, you need to read the first two in the series. Tracy always felt like she was kind of pushed to the background growing up with everything that happened during that time. She wasn’t allowed to do anything because something might happen. Her dream was having a family who loved her and the main character in the dream was Seth. Now she finds herself mated to Seth and three aliens. Now that’s hot! She never dreamed this would ever happen to her. This is such a good book. Tracy is independent and head strong and the four men have no idea how to handle the situation. It’s so funny at times watching the interaction between them. She also has a way to go with her immediate family who come to realize how she feels that she was treated by them. I really enjoyed reading this book and can’t wait to go back and get the first two in the series so that I can find out what exactly happened.

Loving dream by Trinity Blacio.
Tracy Wilmot never expected all those years in her room reading about worlds that she wished were real might come true. She was the quiet one of her family--not an overachiever like her sister or adventurous like her brothers. How she ended up in this mess was beyond her!
Four men, one human and three aliens, had found their perfect mate. But can they live with each other? With a world to save, each of them must work together to conquer their personal issues. Sal, Gresan, Evav and Seth need to learn to be a family before it is too late--something that isn't going to be easy with four dominant personalities. 
This was a fantastic read with great characters. I love trinity's books. I always gets lost in them.
Cant wait to read the next book. 5*.

Loved this book, finished in one sitting! I do not know how Trinity Blacio is able to build her worlds, so completely. Also very happy that there is more to come, and I missed the first two, so I have more reading to do. If you like shifters, aliens, reverse harems, family and love you will need to read this book and series.

I really enjoyed this book. I hadn't read other books in this series, but I will now to get everyone's back story. This book has graphic sex, so it may not suit everyone's taste, but the story line is very interesting. Tracey has four mates, and while many women might be horrified at that (thinking, laundry, dishes, picking up after...)it isn't that way in this world (ahh fantasy). The world as we know it is in trouble, and Tracey and her family are fighting to save it from extinction. I will read the series to find out what happened, I need to know!! And here's to hoping for another book in the series!!
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read and review this book.

This is the third book of the Sugar Daddies series. This is Tracey’s story. She 3 men, 2 aliens who are integrating into the new world and a man that she grew up with. There is someone trying to stop their union. Her men want to protect her and dominate her. There are hot sex’s scenes. This book is a continuation and intersects with the other family units from the previous stories. It was a great story and a fast read.

Ok took me awhile to get into this book. Throughly enjoy story line was great. Wish I read the ones before.

Tracy is a strong woman trying to deal with a futuristic world. Having a family of 4 men, 3 of which are aliens, is hard enough, plus dealing with the world itself. Would give this 3.5, as there were parts I found confusing. This is clearly marked the third in the series, and since I haven't read the other two that must make a difference. Strongly urge you to read the others first, and then recommend this one. Good author.

This is the first book I have read in this series and have missed some connections these people have to each other. That being said, I enjoyed this book and the five main characters. Tracy and her four men, three of them are aliens are coming together as a family and at the same trying to restore order to the earth after it is nearly destroyed. Tracy is a head strong young woman who can be exasperating at times to her men as they are learning the ways of human females. The book is well written and the interaction between the five of them is at times humorous, frustrating and erotic in their interaction with each other. I would highly recommend this book as a great read even though you realize this is not the end of the story.

I did not read the prior two in this series and so I did not get a lot of emotional bonding with the characters. So.... Read the series in order to get the best taste of this Blacio work. " A copy of this was provided by Riverdale Avenue Books via Netgalley with no requirements for a review. Comments here are my honest opinion."
