Publisher's summary

Ex-marine. Ex-wife. Ex-hausted.

I left my brothers in the marines to start a family. I left my ex-wife when that family drove her to drink and drugs. Now all I have left is my son - and he's all I care about.

I can't afford to make another mistake. And the girl who moved in next door? Mistake written all over her. She's got the sweetest smile, the hottest damn curves, and behind it all...a haunted look. I can't take my damn eyes off her.

My powerful body and coarse attitude make her nervous - and as she tries to start a new life away from her abusive ex, she has her own reasons to stay away. But we can't help it. We're f--king drawn to each other. And when she tells me how much she wants a baby...I make every mistake in the book. Because I want a family again.

I want her. My son. And a baby. And when her past comes calling...I'll fight to hell and back to keep it.

Contains mature themes.

The F bombs

The story was good. The narrators were ok. But the number of F bombs was suprising

Truly a great blended family story

I loved that the author eased into the romance and let the family build naturally.

Interesting phrasing

great story, liked the narrators. only thing is the use of the phrase "body clock" instead of "biological clock". it's used a whole lot and, for no good reason, really irritates me lol.

Great Listen

This was such an easy listen, and the characters were very well defined, you can't help loving them. Their situations and their personality were so relatable, i was into listening to this non-stop. Awesome job!

So Heart Warming.

Love love this book. Makes me have butterflies in my tummy on how the love for each other they have and on their son and later their daughter. A light story but very heart warming. Thank you so much for this book.
