Secret Love

A Small Town, Single Dad, Sports Romance (The Single Dad Playbook, Book 2)

By: Willow Aster

Narrated by: Savannah Peachwood, Sebastian York

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.

Audio review:

Sweet and spicy. Romantic and heartaches. There are so many words I can use to describe this book but all of them don’t feel like enough to describe the feelings I had while listening to it. This book showed a healthy relationship between a divorced dad and his ex wife which was refreshing to see. A father who cared and loved his girls deeply. And the woman who comes in and brings a new level of love and happiness to their lives. I loved seeing how Tru and Henley navigate their love for each other and how his ex wife Bri is supportive and is so caring. Tru unwilling to leave Henley when he goes through some rough times can leave a girl teary eyed. Sebastian York perfectly plays Henley and the guys as his voice can heat things up and give a girl unrealistic expectations from men at the same time. Savannah Peachwood has a soft welcoming voice that matched exactly what I would hear for Tru , kind, timid, sweet , and loving. Perfect narration for such an amazing book.

All The Single Daddy Stars!

All the stars for Henley and Tru! I loved their story so much! Henley and his group of single dad teammates are seriously the sweetest thing! Henley was such a genuinely good guy we gave me the ooey gooey feels! I love how thoughtful Tru was with his girls feelings and not wanting to over step. They were both just truly fun and sweet! Also the spice was perfect! I would have loved to see a little further into their future to see if they had any kids or not. But the epilogue with the single dads was so freaking perfect! I can’t wait for Rhodes and Elle’s story!

This was JUST what I needed to read! I’ve been on my TBR grind and kinda forgot to stop and really check in with myself. I am very much a mood reader and I’ve been on the precipice of a book slump and ignoring it. But this book was exactly what I needed to get right back into it!

This was my very first read from Willow Aster. I actually listened to the audio version of this book so let me get into that super quick. I wasn’t paying attention to who the narrators were so when I hit play and heard that Savannah Peachwood and Sebastian York were narrating this?!?! I knew IMMEDIATELY that I would love this book and I was right! Savannah and Sebastian always do the best job with narration and this was no different. Bravo to you two!

As for the book, I went into this blind. I just read the tropes, saw that it wasn’t an author I’ve heard yet and signed up real quick to listen to this book. And the story did not disappoint!!! I loved every aspect of this book. And, it was super heartwarming. Now, I’m not one to spoil anything so I won’t but, these two felt like walking soulmates.

If you love a sports romance (football), found family, forbidden, age gap stories with a hint of soulmates? This one is for you!

Henley & Tru...

Secret Love is the second book in The Single Dad Playbook series. This is a single dad, age gap, small town, pro-football player romance. You get an insta-connection. I was hooked on this one from the start. I absolutely loved Henley and Tru together. You get all the feels & side characters you will love. What an enjoyable read.

Savannah Peachwood and Sebastian York did a great job bringing this story and these characters to life.

🖤🖤😍

The narrators did not disappoint. There voices went well together. This was such a beautiful story. From the kids to the friends. I definitely want to tear the rest of series.
