A pain so powerful can only be eased by a love even stronger.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 Aaron’s story …Single Dad of Seattle, Aaron Steele isn’t a single dad at all. He’s a … isn’t a single dad at all. He’s a retired Navy SEAL whose sister just died, leaving him to raise her newborn daughter all by himself. Only he has no clue how to be a dad–let alone a single dad. He’s lost in a sea of diapers and bottles, late nights and exhausting mornings, all the while dealing with a failure from his last mission he just can’t shake. He needs help. He needs a nanny.
Professional nanny Isobel Jones has a heart of gold. She’s always willing to help out, no matter the cause. She spends her days with children making memories and her nights on the laptop making magic as a graphic designer. After hearing Aaron’s heartbreaking story, she jumps at the chance to help. But she never expected her new boss to be a blue-eyed Adonis with dog tags, who quickly begins to fuel her fantasies.
While the beautiful nanny is off-limits, she’s also a welcomed distraction. Aaron’s grief is still raw and he just knows he’s going to mess up this whole dad thing. Isobel’s never shied away from a challenge, and that’s exactly what Aaron is-a big challenge. He’s angry and stubborn, moody and confusing, and yet she knows deep down he’s capable of so much love.
Will Isobel living with the single dad help pull him out of his misery, or will Aaron let the turmoil inside him chase away perhaps the only person that could help him finally find happiness?
**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

Absolutely fantastic yet heartbreaking. This book was my first read from Whitley Cox and it definitely will not be my last. I totally fell for Aaron and Isobel, their story was so emotional. I wasn’t expecting to love it, but I ABSOLUTELY did!

Isobel is hired as the nanny and the chemistry between them is unmistakable. Both are drawn to the other but as he refrain from acting on impulse due to their age gap.
Their journey definitely had its challenges but it is how they handled those challenges that will stay with you long after you finish their story. Full of emotion this is a heartwarming story about love, healing and new beginnings.
One thing, I would have loved to read a bit more of Aaron’s POV though. But other than that, I absolutely LOVE it! This story was very heartbreaking, yet so beautiful!

When Aaron found himself in a situation that the Ex-Seal with PTSD could not handle, he found Isabel (Iz.) These two definitely had hot, hot chemistry. The story includes themes of drugging, kidnapping, and carjacking. This is book four in The Single Dads of Seattle Series and is another great read!

Living with the Single Dad by Whitley Cox is an great read. This is the fourth book in The Single Dads of Seattle series. This book had me laughing, crying. I had all the feels. This book has Anger, rejection, romance, and more. The book is well written and has very likeable characters. I did not want to put the book down. I can’t wait for the next book by this amazing author. I highly recommend this book.
This was another really great read and a fantastic addition to the series my heart just broke for Aaron he loses his sister and ends up raising her baby girl and is really struggling to deal with everything. His sister’s friend hires Isobel to help him take care of Sophia and she is just what he needs in his life. This was a pretty emotional read at times I enjoyed their story and would definitely recommend it.
Aaron is left to care for his niece Sophie after the devastating death of his sister. As they only had each other he is weighed down by grief, anger & is suffering from PTSD from his time as a SEAL. Isobel is recommended by friends as she is a nanny. However the arrangement requires her to live with them as the baby is a newborn.
Both are drawn to the other but as he is older tries to refrain from acting on impulse due to her age. There are a few twists & turns & we’re kept up to date with several of the single & not so single dads.
This is a wonderful series with a different story for each dad as they meet a lady who helps them mend from their previous issues.

I have two books to pick from to start reading yesterday and I shouldn’t have picked ‘Living with the Single Dad’. If I had picked the other one, I could have easily put it down to get some sleep. With Single Dad, couldn’t put it down and now I’m sleep-deprived. How Aaron end up with Sophia is so heart wrenching. You don’t need to be an empath to feel Aaron’s vulnerability and sorrow. But nobody would resist an empath like Iz, least of all Aaron. When his resistance crumbled, it got steamy and sizzling. Iz’s dirtiness was irresistible because on the outside, she’s an angel personified. She is also a trouble magnet and not by her own doing. Though Aaron kept saving her, he was still clueless as to what is happening with his heart. Ms. Cox wrote a well-plotted story that contains effective drama, a bit of suspense, intense sex, characters that you can sympathize with, and lots of love. [I received an advanced copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.]
The third book in the series brings a deeply emotional love story between Aaron and Isobel (Iz). Their characters are strong and have a hot chemistry and strong connection The author does a beautiful job developing the story bringing them together when his sister dies and he becomes an instant single daddy to his niece Sophie. He needs help .. and not just for little Sophie. This is where Iz steps in. I loved their characters and watching them work through and come together. Also enjoyed seeing past characters. It’s well written,moves quickly and smoothly and I enjoyed and would recommend this book.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. All opinions in this review are my own and freely given.
First book I have read from Whitley and I loved it. Have tissues because you will need them. This book was a little rough to get through at the beginning. But as the storyline goes on it gets better and better. I absolutely loved the storyline and where the characters were taken. Aaron becomes a single father when something very tragic happens to his sister. Not at all what he had planned. His friend and a very close friend to his sister hires a nanny. But this isn’t just any nanny. This is a feisty sexy wants to heal Aaron nanny. But it isn’t that easy for either one of them. This storyline grips you from the very beginning to the very end. There is a wonderful storyline with these two that has you holding on to see what is going to happen next with them separately and together. Whitley did an amazing job writing this one and I cant wait to read the rest in this series. So glad I took a chance and read this one
The Single Dads Of Seattle, Living With A Single Dad is the next book in the series and is a real emotional story. Aaron and Isobel story is so heartfelt and emotional I cried. You know when by the first page you are hanging on every word that’s written, with that lump in your throat it’s going to be a winner of a story. Whitley Cox has surpassed every expectation with this series I just love it all and look forward to the next book in the series.
