Family ties run deep in the heart of Texas.Who knew that having the Dalton looks—dark hair and blue eyes—would deem Justus as a trustworthy person? That’s exactly what happens when a friend of the family turns up on the Dalton Ranch and thrusts a baby at him to watch because nobody else is home. After she leaves, he realizes he doesn’t even know her name—or how to care for an infant.Tuesday is … infant.
Tuesday is one of the most sought-out hairstylists in three counties, and she’s got problems. Not only is she raising her irresponsible teen sister’s baby as her own but she is shorthanded in the babysitter department. And boy does she dump a surprise on that cute cousin of the Daltons’ when she asks him to watch the infant so she doesn’t lose her client.
Justus finds himself helping out the busy single mom several times, and he can’t help but admire more than her sexy curves. Tuesday is mouthy and knows what she wants, two things his momma would claim as his traits too. She’s looking to provide a home and a good life for the child she’s adopted, but Justus makes her stop and smell the sweet grasses… as they tumble in them, that is. Things are heating up, and he doesn’t want to walk away. But is he cut out for fatherhood and if so, would this single-minded, strong woman let him in?

A really good cowboy romance.
This cowboy romance is fun! I was giggling almost all the way through it.
Tuesday and Justus are so funny together and just seem to fit. I really enjoyed reading about their romance and getting reacquainted with the Dalton family. The attraction and heat between them was so hot and the way Justus accepted her son, Joshua James, as his own was so heartwarming I thought I’d just melt on the spot.
It is the ninth book in the Dalton Boys series but it easily can be read as a standalone book. The series does interconnect throughout each book but I really think you can read them alone, as I did with this one.

Justus Dalton has come back home, only to get a baby thrust into his arms by a woman he doesn’t know. He also doesn’t know the baby’s name or if it’s a boy or girl. Tuesday Johnson is a single mother of Joshua James and the most sought after hairdresser in three counties. Joshua James was her sister Jessica’s son until Tuesday adopted him. Tuesday doesn’t know Justus from his brothers or cousins but he has the Dalton look about him. Justus is intrigued by Tuesday, and he can’t help but help her out wherever he can.
Will Justus find his forever love? Will Tuesday be able to get past being the sole person to raise her son and accept help?

Until next time… Happy Reading!
A fantastic well written cowboy romance. This heartwarming shorter storyline had me engaged from start to finish. It is told in dual POV in this fast paced engaging standalone in a series. The humor is great with a cowboy and baby, their is instant attraction and hot chemistry from great interesting well developed characters and cameoes from other from the series. I voluntarily read and reviewed this ARC.
A terrific addition to the Dalton series by this fantastic author. Love the storyline with the hunky Justus Dalton taking on the sexy Tuesday and her little sis. Tuesday is a great heroine just trying to get by and take care of her family. And when Justus steps up it’s fabulous and swoon worthy. It was great to see the rest of the wonderful Dalton family while loving this new couple.

This addition to this series is packed full of humour, it has a little bit of drama that works on your emotions. Its sweet and sexy and i loved the storylines and all of the characters. I love this series. I received a free copy of this book via booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
The beginning of this story made me laugh out loud. It was fantastic to imagine the face of Justus when Tuesday left him with a baby in his arms.
Justus is a cowboy thru and thru. He took care of cattle but he knew nothing about babies. Actually, he avoided babies because he thought he was going to break them in some way.
Tuesday is a single mom that does all she can to provide her baby boy with the best care in the world. Sadly, she just moved into town and she can’t find a reliable nanny for Joshua James so she relies on the kind heart of the Dalton women in case she needs a hand.
I love the whole story and the world presented. It was a lot of information at times with what was going on in the ranch, with Tuesday’s mom and sister, etc. but that was also part of the charm. It revolved around family and what they do for each other.
I would recommend this book, even though is the last in the series. I will be taking the previous ones into my Kindle to catch up because I enjoyed the Dalton family a lot.

I really enjoyed reading this story. I love the Dalton family and it was really touching to read about Justus interacting with the baby. That is so heart-warming. I loved Tuesday. She was the spark Justus needed in this life. The storyline flowed smoothly throughout. I loved the characters. All were well-developed and easily relatable. I love reading anything by Em Petrovia….

This was a sexy, heartwarming addition to the Dalton Boys’ series. Tuesday is a popular hairdresser by day, and a mom to her baby nephew at night. Justus is an all-around good guy, and a hottie cowboy to boot! Figuring out if they had what it took to become a family took some doing, with the demands of day to day work, on both their parts. But it was a delightful read, with some great supporting characters.
Justus has just arrived back home when he answers the door at his family’s home and has a baby thrust into his arms. Tuesday is a single mom and when she needs babysitting help the Daltons always help her. So when she saw Justus she knew he was a Dalton and left her son with him to rush to work. Justus couldn’t believe that anyone would leave their child with a stranger and made her aware of how he felt when she returned. Sparks fly between them even when she was upset that he felt she was irresponsible. Justus was drawn to Tuesday and when he finally git her to let him in what he discovers makes him want to claim her and her son as his own. Can he convince Tuesday to give him a chance?
This is an amazing story once I started it I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between them is blazing hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

Be still my heart. For me there is nothing sexier than a big strong man being brought to his knees by an adorable bundle of heart. Justus is at the wrong place at the right time to lose his heart. Tuesday is a force all her own and when you add that spirit to an attraction as electric as theirs, It’s bound to set off sparks. Theirs is a work in progress, but a temptingly perfect fit.
What is a cowboy to do when a strange woman knocks on the door and hands him a baby, a baby bag and mutters something about hair and being late. He takes the baby and watches her drive away, not knowing who she is, what the baby’s name is, when she will be back and heck, he has never held a baby before. This was an enjoyable story about finding love when it was not expected, at a time not according to plan and about finding home. Tuesday and Justus were such fun characters and it was enjoyable to see them grow and open to the possibilities of love and family.

A compelling, sexy, and passionate read. The amazing storyline is emotionally deep, well written, witty, funny, and relatable. Loveable characters – Tuesday and Justus are strong and great together (Justus is totally swoon-worthy). The chemistry between them is off the charts, powerful, and intense! I love the Dalton Boys and this is a really wonderful series to read and have. I look forward to reading more. Highly recommended.

Justus is pure Dalton through and through. ***sigh*** We all need men like Justus and his brothers and cousins.. Tuesday is great. A young woman changing her life for her sister’s happiness, she adopts her sister’s baby and moves away when her sister can’t handle seeing the baby. I love Justus and Tuesday’s story. It is sweet and sexy. A must read

This Dalton boy is just as romantic as the others, and knows his mind just as Quick. These two have a few trials, but things are quickly resolved and they get their HEA. Love each of these guys and hope there’ll be something about the girls as well.
