About this listen

Being a single dad was not on my short-list of life plans. Especially since I didn't know my daughter existed.

Now, I'm not only juggling all that goes with having a four-year-old, I'm also trying to provide my daughter the skills to communicate her needs.

I'm failing. Epically.

I need big help with this small person.

The woman assigned as my daughter’s mentor is a dream come true. Right up until she accuses me of neglect. Dr. Ellie Stone is fierce and determined and understands my daughter in a way I can’t.

It’s not long before I come to realize I might not be able to do this without her. What’s more… I don’t think I want to.

Because not only is Ellie perfect for my daughter, she’s perfect for me.

Her drive to protect people in need has me falling for her. It also puts a target on her back.

But the beautiful doctor is not the only one with a protective nature.

And I’ll end anyone who tries to take her from me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~There may be topics in this novel that would be upsetting or painful for some. For a full list of TWs see the author's website.

I’m just going to dive into the review—I loved this book so much! The hearing impairment representation was honestly beautiful and refreshing. It was so nice to read something a little different.

There was a bit of plot in the story, but what really stood out to me was how Blake stepped up and became a father due to circumstances beyond his control. It was such a feel-good read, but it also hit me emotionally. Ellie was a fantastic character, teaching both Blake and Maisy. I loved the connection they all shared, and when that little girl finally said the words Blake had been longing to hear, I melted.

Just a couple of things. The conversation with Dallas in the car when checking on the older brother felt rough. I also thought we might get more bonding between the brothers, or at least a deeper conversation, but it felt concluded quite quickly. I assume we’ll get more of that in Dallas’s book, which I’m really looking forward to—I’m a huge fan of the love-after-loss trope.

I really enjoyed this and looking forward to reading more of Samantha’s work.
