When a blast from the past could blow up the future. Welcome to Seattle, the Emerald City and home to The Single Dads of Seattle. Ten sexy single fathers who play poker every Saturday night, have each other’s backs, love their children without quarter, and hope to one day find love again. This is Liam’s story … Single Dad of Seattle, Liam Dixon has a kick-ss life. He’s a successful divorce … kick-ss life. He’s a successful divorce attorney with a great kid, and an ongoing Wednesday night no-strings booty call. But seeing his fellow single dads fall in love and happier than ever, he begins to question his own life. He wants more with Richelle. A future. Finally ready to sweep Richelle off her feet, a woman who broke his heart over twenty years ago unexpectedly knocks on his door desperate for his help.
Single mom, Richelle LaRue might not be five-feet-tall, but her personality and strength are that of an Amazon. She takes no prisoners and gives zero fcks. A damn good divorce attorney, she won’t let any man push her around, including Liam and his ridiculous idea of a “relationship.” If it’s not broke, don’t fix it. With her past behind her, life is finally good and she’s determined to give her daughter a bright and shiny future.
But when Liam’s ex shows up, her story rocks Richelle to her core, and she and Liam take the woman’s case. What should be a simple divorce suddenly turns dangerous. Richelle finds herself–and those she loves–caught in the crossfire while Liam is torn between the past and the present, with their future dangling precariously in the balance.
Can Richelle let down her walls and trust when everything she holds dear is threatened, or will finally falling for the single dad be more than her heart can bear?
**Note: This book can be read as a standalone. It includes lots of steamy scenes, cursing, and of course as with all my books, this has an HEA and no cliffhanger or cheating. If you like single dads who take charge, this book is for you.

This book is about Liam and Richelle. Liam is a brilliant divorce lawyer, and runs a support group for previous clients … “the single dads of Seattle”. These dads play poker every Saturday night and support each other. Each of the other 9 members have slowly found love and gotten remarried. Liam is the last in the group. Richelle is also an amazing divorce lawyer and Liams Wednesday night booty call. She has many issues that she is keeping close to her chest.
This book is book 10 in the series and it would help to have read them in order. This book is a full length novel. It was a page turner that had me hooked from the start. It is action pack and hot and steamy.
** Trigger warning … it contains content about physical abuse and marital rape. If this is a trigger for you be warned.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and would highly recommend reading the series.

I totally enjoyed Liam’s story in the final book of the Single Dads of Seattle series Falling for the Single Dad. Liam is a sought after Divorce Attorney, he has a son that he lives for & he has a hottie Friend with Benefits Richelle who is also a killer Divorce Attorney & she doesn’t take jack from anybody! They meet up on Wednesday nights when both of their children are with family & the arrangement has worked for quite some time when Liam starts wanting more and Richelle runs scared. Their relationship is tested when Liam’s former girlfriend shows up on the run, hiding from her abusive Russian Mob husband & Richelle & Liam take the case together. What Liam doesn’t know is the abusive husband is the man that attacked Richelle when she was out of town at a conference. This story goes through some ups & downs to the point Liam let’s Rochelle walk away when he tells her he loves her & she runs away. He is at the lowest point & Richelle thinks she’s fine being alone when she starts to Austin what she feels for Liam. She finally let’s down those massive walks she’s built around her heart when she shares some very hidden details of her past & you fall in love with Liam even more when he tells her it doesn’t matter he loves her all the more. The greatest thing about this series is Whitley Cox addresses current issues in each book & in this one is domestic violence, marital rape, & men who won’t take no as a NO, along with the fact the abuser is part of the Russian Mob which adds to the intense drama. I loved this book & all the Single Dads of Seattle Series. Whitley you’re an awesome writer & you have a an amazing future ahead of you!
I was provided with an ARC in exchange for my honest review.
Liam and Richelle’s Wednesday night escapades has been well known throughout the series. No strings attached and no sleepovers have been the norm for the past few years. But what happens when Liam wants more? Will he be able to knock down the walls she has erected? Or will the baggage from her past be the factor that keeps him at arms length? Highly emotional and wonderfully entertaining, this book was fabulous. Once i started it I could not put it down, and the twists that Whitley Cox pulls into the story I never saw coming. The perfect ending to a series I have enjoyed from Day 1. I cannot wait to read the next series. Whitley Cox never disappoints.
The final book in this Single Dads of Seattle series. Each book will take you on the journey of the characters finding their happily ever after. This book was well written, the characters were engaging and have amazing chemistry. I didn’t want this book and series to end. This is a type of series that you will re-read all over again. A must read.
I have loved every book in this series and Liam and Richelle’s story is no exception. Two strong, damaged souls who don’t believe in trust or love find their no strings, sex only non-relationship changing drastically.
Danger, desire, mafia, kidnappings, abuse and second chances pepper this fantastic love story with action, danger and more!!
Liam is a single dad in Seattle who is a divorce lawyer. He is not looking for love or marriage just his weekly hookups with Richelle, also a divorce lawyer. When their profession deals with danger, they realize how much they mean to each other.

I’ve been waiting for this book for so long that I started it at 1am… Guess what happened…
I didn’t sleep a thing.
Whitley Cox has that effect on me. Her books are to die for and you won’t be able to stop reading once you start it.
Her writing is hot and sweet, sassy and intense.
Just trust me on this. You won’t be disappointed.
Falling for the Single Dad is her latest release and it’s the tenth book from the Single Dads of Seattle.
But I need to tell you something.
Despite the fact that all books are standalones I totally advise you to read all books in order. By doing so, you will have the chance to know each dad and to have a glimpse of each character.
This new book explores the lives of Liam and Richelle.
Liam is a well known lawyer with a stellar reputation. He’s focused not only on his career but also on his son. He lives for him and him only.
A relationship isn’t in the cards for him but a steady hook up, with no attachments is. But…
Richelle is a feisty lawyer that doesn’t take shi*** from no-one. She’s a single mother and, just like Liam, she divides her attention between her son and her career.
A relationship isn’t in the cards for her but she has a soft spot for the sexy Liam.
It’s just sex and nothing more but…
I was at a loss of words when the book ended.
I was stunned, I was happy, I was so freaking happy.
This book was what I wanted and a bit more.
Superb plot, very well written, super engaging and intense. It was perfect, it was amazing, it was just what I wanted.
These two are stubborn, oh boy… So stubborn that I wanted to slap them… Seriously…
It was the push and pull, it was the hot stuff, it was perfect.
Sometimes you need to let your fears go and don’t be afraid to be happy.
Life is not all sunshine and rainbows, but that doesn’t mean you can’t fight for what you want.
Betrayal, crime, punishment, violence are very present in this book as well as love, loyalty, family bonds and true friends.
And let’s not forget the hot stuff…
Of boy… Some scenes were freaking amazing…
Whitley… What can I say? You nailed it. You gave us just what we wanted and it was perfect.
It was perfect in every way.
Can’t wait for your next series.

When I started reading this story, I could not put it down. I read the book in one day. This author is an awesome writer. I can not wait to read more of their books. Keep up the great work. You should definitely read this book.
I received this book with the understanding that I could leave a voluntary and honest review.
In this book we meet Richelle LaRue and Liam Dixon. Liam started a group for single dads after he realized there was nothing out there for men. Sure he could have sucked it up like some men did but he wanted to have real friends who understood what he was going through and he could possibly help with what they were going through. This started their saturday night poker group. One by one though he is seeing his friends find new love. Women who not only love the men but the children they have as well. He wonders is it possible to have that with Richelle or is their wed. hook-up all it will be and is he really ready to settle for that? Richelle has a past that would destroy a lesser woman, she however is not that kind of woman. With what has happened in her past she isn’t willing to put her heart on the line for a man again. Her body where she calls the shots sure but more she doesn’t think that is in the cards for her. So when Liam starts talking about more she has to decide how much is she willing to risk to possibly have it all? Will these two find a HEA with each other or is the past just to much to overcome?
This is an amazing conclusion to this series. Each of the stories can be read as stand alone’s but I recommend reading them in order so you don’t ruin any surprises. It does have its ups and downs that I really want to tell you about. However I don’t want to ruin the story for any other readers. I will say this book will have you hooked from the first word to the very end. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.
I really liked this fun and flirty story. The characters had great chemistry and heart. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

I’m so sad that this series is over! I have loved every book and I was dying for Liam & Richelle’s book! These two had so much chemistry that I couldn’t put the book down until I got to see their HEA. The added drama of Liam’s ex and her husband had me on the edge of my seat.
This was such an amazing ending to a wonderful series.
I so hate to see this series come to an end. I actually put off reading this book for a bit, because I didn’t want to see it come to an end. Each book is a fantastic stand alone featuring one of the sexy Single Dads of Seattle, where he meets his match when it comes to romance, passion, and looking for a HEA to last a life time.
The time has finally come for Liam to finally lose the title of most eligible bachelor of Seattle and stop being the only”Single” dad in the Single Dad’s group. Being the founding member of the group and everyone else’s biggest cheerleader, it is time for him to take him turn. He finally realizes that Richelle is who he wants to spend the rest of his life with. The big question is, how do you convince someone that has been so hurt and doesn’t trust men, to give you a chance.
This is a smoking hot romance with a feel good story line, a bit of angst and heartache, but a whole lot of sassy, sexy goodness rolled into one big book of perky, fun-loving feels.
Strong story line, awesome characters, engaging dialogue and easy to visualize descriptions to details. So happy for the teaser of the spin off series Single Moms of Seattle. Can not wait to see this one become available.
Written as a 3rd person, multi pov with a HFN ending
Would I recommend this book? Yes!
Would I read more from this author? Yes

Book 10 and final addition in the Single Dads of Seattle series and it is a riveting read that will take you on one wild ride and keep you engrossed until the end! The story line is well-developed, emotionally deep, well written, engaging, and relatable. The ups and downs, witty banter, steam, humour, and twists and turns will keep you upright on the edge of your seat. The characters are strong and loveable; their chemistry is off the charts! Definitely recommended.

Richelle is a single mom and a lawyer that has some demons and skeletons in her closet. Liam is a single father and the last member of the Single Dads of Seattle. He has watched all of his friends and even his brother meet their woman and fall in love. He wants to love and have a relationship even though he was burned by his ex-wife. Richelle’s life is about her daughter Mallory and keeping her past hidden from her daughter. Richelle likes her current arrangement with Liam and doesn’t want to change what they have. This book was a great read and I couldn’t put it down.

I enjoyed this new “Single Dads of Seattle” story! Great characters and wonderful story-line! The plot and characters really sucks you in. Liam and Richelle are so perfect for each other. I think fate is in the works. This is probably my favorite story in the “Single Dads of Seattle” series! It is a story of the last of the single dads to fall with his sexy and feisty hook up. This story is suspenseful with drama, love, friendship, single parents and passion. A nicely weaved story from beginning to end. I am so sad to see this series of stories come to an end.

Whitley Cox has been able to hook me onto two single dad books within a span of a month! She is absolutely amazing at writing in the single parent trope and will forever be one of my top go-to authors within the trope.
Liam and Richelle are strictly a “Wednesday” night couple. Well, I would not even call them a couple. More like friends with benefits. Richelle is extremely closed off when it comes to men but there is something about Liam that makes her want to change. But you know what they say, change is not always easy.
I loved how Whitley wrote amazing yet strong characters with a level head. There was not any over the top drama within the book. Yes, I did not agree with a few things but let’s be real, it is hard to find characters that you agree with all the time. Liam is one of the sweetest characters I have read about recently. He is a true gentleman who really just wants the best for Richelle.
I loved everything about this book. Everything I look for within a book is in this book. Liam and Richelle have chemistry like no other and are completely made for each other even if it takes her a bit to see it. It was not easy for Richelle to open up but once she did you could see how the weight she had been carrying just lifted. Yes, there is drama but it is drama that should be there.
I cannot wait to read more books by Whitley. I will be reading her backlist for sure!
Great characters that will keep your interest extremely well.
I’m not going to go into detail, no spoilers, just read the book if you are even mildly intrigued by the blurb. You’ll thank me later!
The chemistry, sweetness, and twists in plot kept things interesting. Add in drama and passion and you have a good read.

What happens when you find your 3 years friends with benefits arrangement leaves you wanting more… Well this is the situation that Liam finds himself in and he finds he wants more from their Wednesday night arrangement. Their chemistry is off the charts and when she walks in on him and his ex talking she thinks its game over but what she actually has her offering her help without even thinking about it. What they uncover has them working together and has Liam working even harder trying to get her to agree to date him. i will admit I didnt like Richelle much at first I jus couldnt warm to her but by the end she broke through my barriers. I enjoyed this story and loved the other characters too.
