Summary

Who meets their soulmate shopping for bagels in a supermarket bakery aisle?

Before I moved to the small town of Silver Hills, I would have told you no one.

But the second I meet Henley Ward, I’m swept away.

He is everything I look for in a man: tall, strong and so handsome.

Our instant attraction, spirited banter, and heated glances leave a lasting impression…

Until I see him again.

Like a raging tornado, he storms into the school ready to take on the teacher who has crushed his daughter’s spirit.

The dedication this man has to his three daughters could be the sexiest thing I have ever seen.

Before we know it, we are stealing kisses in his kitchen and secretly getting together any chance we can.

I know I should stay away from Henley so I don’t lose my job, and his focus is on raising the girls and being the best wide receiver in football, but our attraction is intense and the draw between us is too tempting to resist.

I can only hope our secret love will survive when our truth is revealed.

Secret Love is book two in the Single Dad Playbook series. Each book can be listened to as a standalone.

Super sweet single dad romance!

Henley & Tru were just the sweetest couple. From their first meeting to watching them try to deny their attraction, they were exactly the other needed.

I loved the storyline, and how seamlessly they fit into each other’s lives. The bond that Tru developed with Henley’s girls, and even his ex, was so heartwarming.

Just as in book 1, Mad Love, I absolutely adore the Single Dad Players club! Their banter is hilarious, and the love and support they show each other is amazing. I can’t wait for what comes next!

The audiobook was narrated by Savannah Peachwood & Sebastian York, and they did a fabulous job. This was such an easy listen, and their performances were full of emotion.

Amazing Story & Narration🎧 Charming & Delightful!

Willow Aster pens another fantastic novel set in “The Single Dad Playbook” series and I loved everything about it, from her impressive writing style and way with words, to the fabulous characters and storylines she created to the perfectly cast narrators who bring it all to life from the pages to your ears. This is the second book of the series of standalone novels, and is just as amazing as the first book, “Mad Love”, and is Henley Ward’s story, a single dad of three daughters. Tru visited Silver Hills when she was younger and it left her with fond memories of the small town of Silver Hills and a good impression and the why moved there. Then she runs into him, Henley, and she feels an instant connection, and the man she never knew she was looking for, but the next time they meet does not go so well. Henley was fuming about what his daughter’s teacher said to her, went all papa bear on her to set her straight, except he goes off on the wrong teacher, the substitute, and even more surprising it was Tru, the woman he met at the supermarket. I loved all the layers of this story and how it all played out. It was great to watch Henley and Tru navigate a relationship, starting with his groveling to make things right. Tru was great with his daughters too, especially Cassidy, after she recognized her struggles. It was also great to see the single dads get together and add their entries into their playbook, and it is impossible to not love those guys and the camaraderie amongst them. This wonderfully plotted story not only captivated my attention the entire time, but it tugged on my heartstrings, too. Willow Aster, thank you for another fabulous story and emotional rollercoaster ride, loved all the drama, the charm and the witty dialogue too. 

🎧📚🎧 Sebastian York and Savannah Peachwood are superbly talented voice artists and a joy to listen to.They did an amazing job portraying these characters, giving each a voice that was fitting and was believable in every role. Ms. Peachwood aced it as Tru, showcasing all aspects of her personality and demeanor, and Mr. York did the same as Hanley and was just as fabulous. Both were fantastic performing the roles of the secondary characters, including the children’s roles. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling them all. These two are entertaining storytellers and their performance elevates this already wonderful story to another level.

Secret Love

Hooked from chapter one. Love this world and all the characters. I was grinning through so many of the single dad interactions. I related to so many things in this story and had me all up in my feelings. It was an amazing read. Highly recommend it.

Henley & Tru!

Single dad romance is one of favorites, and this series is pushing all the right buttons. Henley is a single dad to three girls. Good friends with his ex, they co-parent together, but while she has moved on, he is concentrating on his kids and career. When he bumps into Tru at the store, the sparks fly, but what is the chance he would see her again? Small towns have that tendency to see people more than once and when she turns up as his daughter's substitute teacher, the heat is turned up. Our story begins! What did I love? I love the focus on reading and identifying a problem. I love the relationship Henley has with his ex wife, and showing a great example to his kids. I love that age is just a number. And I love that it's never too late to find your soulmate. It's fun and flirty, it's sensual and exciting, and it's sweet and family oriented. It could not be a better mix and made my ears very happy.

Savannah Peachwood and Sebastian York are the story tellers and boy do they bring this one alive! Peachwood is so good as Tru. She is spot on as a caring teacher, and supportive and loving as a partner. Love her interaction with the kids and Henley! York is Henley, the warmhearted dad, the sensual lover and the aging athlete. These two give all the feels and made for a wonderful listen.

Great single dad series

Audiobook review: narrated by Sebastian York and Savannah Peachwood
4 stars for story / 5 stars for performance

I am really loving this series. This group of single dads are amazing characters and provide the best book boyfriends. This time we get to follow Henley and Tru. While the romance between the two feels organic, the storyline provides so many speed bumps along the way, my interest never wavered and I still felt like I was hanging on every word. Henley’s girls were adorable and his relationship with his ex-wife was amazing and beautiful to read. This story felt like so much more than a typical romance, it was a great family story as well.

The narrators were outstanding!! Both did an amazing job voicing multiple characters and I had no issue listening to this for hours at a time. There were such a wide range of emotions through this story and each narrator performed them flawlessly bringing such life to this audiobook!

single dad, age gap goodness

I have been patiently waiting for book 2 after really enjoying the first in the series. Henley and Tru gave me what i was looking for in a single dad, age gap romance. It was great to be back with the gang and the Single Dads Playbook. I enjoyed how the story panned out especially with the Dyslexia representation, it was handled well and it was good to see this subject approached in a story. I also appreciated the postive vibes between the blended family aspect of the story, it was good to see that no one was painted as the bad guy in the situation. The audio was really enjoyable I found myself getting easily lost in the narration by Savannah Peachwood and Sebastian York. Both really gave the characters some depth and helped bring them to life. I cant wait to get back in with the gang in book 3.
