The Dream Guy Next Door by Lauren Blakely
5.0

A sweet, charming, small town romance that will just have you feeling good from start to finish.

January is a single mother to her daughter, Wednesday. She is a carpenter, which I loved that fact about her. She is hard working and a great parent, but has never truly found love. Liam is a single father to his son Ethan, a vet and new to town after moving from New York City. He is a rare man and is looking to settle down with someone but just hasn’t found that right person yet.

I loved friendship that quickly formed between January and Liam, even though there was plenty of tension between them from the start. The banter back and forth between them had me laughing so many times throughout the story. I loved the interaction each of them had with their children, too. Both January and Liam are just lovable characters who are real and believable.

If you’re looking for a single parent, small town romance that will leave you feeling good this is one to read!
