All Of Him is an incredible Anthology written by 4 amazing authors. I couldn’t pick one story to say it’s better than the other. All of them had lots of romance, angst, and steamy sex. They were short and sweet, grabbing your attention from page one all the way to the last page of the whole anthology. I really enjoyed it and recommend it!

Be prepared to stay up late if you start this collection in the evening as you won’t be wanting to put it down untill the very last book in the collection.
Only the Lies by Elle Thorpe
This starts with giggles and ends with a happy sigh. Beau is the hot gym guy that Cleo spies on him through her work blinds every morning just to see his fit body and day dream about him until she finally get to meet him. This has plenty of laughs, cringe worthy moments, hawt scenes, sadness and hope that one slightly pudgy, witty and awesome lady can be with a deliciously fit and great guy…as long as lies or omitted truths don’t pull them apart before they have really begun!
In the first story in this series, Jenny is out exploring the United States one state at a time and recording her trip with photos as she intends to make her living through photography is possible. While in Montana and looking for a place to stay and a short term job she encounters the Lonesome brothers. They lost their wife. They share and she finds once she is nannying for them for their two sons that sharing is something she can do. But mostly, her presence heals them and soothes the babies who lost their mother. Such a strong start to this collection. All of the stories are really good but I must admit the first one hooked me to keep reading.

* Review for The Baby Drop by Kelsie Rae
I’m a loyal reader of Kelsie Rae. She definitely gave us all the good words needed for this Single Daddy Surprise Baby Romance. We have Daddy and the Neighbor who have sparks flying all while he is trying to figure out being a daddy. Another winner for Kelsie Rae !
This collection has four stories about sexy single dads and the women who will eventually tame them. I enjoyed reading each of these stories and the theme is a favorite for me. A sweet, hot and awesome read that you should pick up.

Review for: The Baby Drop Off by Kelsie Rae
I absolutely adore single dad stories and this one makes my heart swoon. Shane gets his world turned upside down and I loved watching him panic as he got help from his sweet neighbor. This story is not what you think or expect so read it to find out about name tattoos, dance floors, and “street cred” alone. You will laugh, groan and fall in love with Tasha and Shane. Baby Addy is adorable and such a gem. I promise you Shane will be your new book boyfriend as he really is a “softie” and everyone needs a friend like Tasha in there life because she has a heart of gold. Kelsie makes me fall in love over and over again with her sweet, endearing and heartfelt stories and The Baby Drop Off has jumped to the top of my favorite’s list.

This collection of single dad stories is fabulous. I enjoyed each one as they were all different within the single parent trope. I especially enjoyed Elle Thorpe’s Only The Lies. If you are a fan of the single dad, romance trope then I recommend this book. You get 4 books in this anthology.
Only the Lies | Elle Thorpe
This was a nice quick read. Cleo is obsessed with the stranger across the way and stalks him every minute she can with her bff through the office shades .
Beau meets Cleo unexpectedly at his gym thinking she’s someone else…
And the lies begin. Cleo is so tongue tied whenever she’s around Beau she can’t control it!
Beau is beginning to fall for Cleo until a surprise is about to ruin everything.
A great novella! I hope Elle continues it, I enjoyed Cleo and Beau story. Love their chemistry!
This review is for The Baby Drop-Off by Kelsie Rae.
Tasha is the perfect neighbor. Not only is she beautiful, sexy, an artist, but also a former nanny. She’s exactly who Shane needs in his life when he finds a baby at his door. She will help him learn how to care for his child, but can she keep her heart in check with every moment he falls more in love with his baby.
The Baby Drop-Off is an easy going, fast kind of love that will have your ovaries exploding.
A really good collection. Loved Mason and Savannah. Also loved Shane and Tasha. Cleo an Beau and all the reverse harem folks were good. Excellent novellas.
All of Him is a fabulous read filled with lots of heart and swoon worthy single fathers. Each of the four books are guaranteed to melt your heart. I loved each story so much and it is so hard to pick a favorite out of this collection because each author brings her own story to life. From cowboys to Tattoo artist and Martial artist to Mechanic you are going to just love each of the men and the stories that they belong to.
I really loved Kelsie Rae’s story The Baby Drop Off. You have Shane and Tasha. Shane gets that surprise baby and his life gets flipped upside down. That’s where Tasha enters and saves the day. I love the changes in Shane throughout this story. He will make you swoon over baby Addy and his love for Tasha. I love the slow burn to your the one and only.
Each book brings that little something special with the single dads so make sure you have a tissue or 2 on hand while reading this collection. I couldn’t put this down at all.
If single dad romances are your jam this is one collection YOU WILL WANT TO READ. I LOVED every single story in this collection. Each story was different, but all the characters had fantastic chemistry. I was seriously swooning over every single story.
Before Her is a slow burn, nanny/employer romance with a reverse harem twist. The Baby Drop Off is a surprise baby/neighbor to lovers romance. Only the Lies is a sweet story, with some family drama. Broken Down is an emotional second chance romance.
Three of the four authors were new to me, I’ve previously read many of Elle Thorpe’s books, but after this I will be checking out all the other authors involved. This is a MUST READ collection.
I love single dad romances, too often we forget that sometimes it’s also the men who struggle to put their lives back together. Plus it’s hot to find a hot single dad whose heart a special girl can heal.

When you read a collection usually there is one story that stands out or one that you couldn’t quite enjoy.
Not here…each story stands out and bring this collection of single dad stories to a higher level. I loved how easy they were to read, escape in and let these characters give their lives and loves the attention each deserve.
If you are a fan of single dad love/romance than skip the reviews and one-click. No worries these stories will give you a whole new reason to appreciate father’s day!!! I received an ARC for an honest and voluntarily review.
4 Great Reads. I love single dads romances. There is just something about a man who puts his kids first and does everything in his power to raise them right. Which in most single dad romances the guys end up needing a little help from a soon to be romantic source.
All these books are outstanding reads that I highly recommend. They are full of fun, passion, sweetness with a bit of suspense/aghast thrown in (well depending which story you are reading).
I hate to single one out because trust me you’ll want to read them all, but I must admit I fell in love with Cleo’s story Only the Lies by Elle Thorpe. Probably because Cleo reminded so much of myself. She’s not the sexy model type, she’s a little overweight, not in the best physical shape (Boy could I relate to her attempt at running – lol) yet she’s funny, smart and managing life on her own.
Cleo has a secret thing for, Beau, the owner of the gym across from where she works. She peeps out the window everyday just to see him walk from his car to the gym. But she’s way too shy to just walk up and say hi. But fate steps in when the mailman accidentally leaves a letter for the gym at her office and Cleo has to return it to its rightful owner. This is where the story takes off and the fun begins. Cleo is mistaken by Beau for a new client, he has an appointment with and Cleo is too awestruck seeing him up close to correct him. But that one little white lie (who she really is) turns into a whole mess of crazy fun trouble.
2 Thumbs up and 5 Stars for a great anthology. These are 4 great stories that you don’t want to miss out on. Highly Recommend Grabbing All of Him up, ASAP.
All of Him: A Single Dad Collection is a contemporary romance anthology containing four full-length novellas by four different authors. The following books are included in the collection in this order: Before Her by Anita Maxwell, The Baby Drop Off by Kelsie Rae, Only the Lies by Elle Thorpe, and Broken Down by Paige Taylor.
This review is for Only the Lies by Elle Thorpe, the only included story that I have read so far. My review will be updated to include the other novellas in the collection when I get a chance to read them.
Only the Lies by Elle Thorpe is told in first person, dual POV and tells the love story that happens between Cleo, a receptionist, and Beau, a martial arts gym owner and single parent. Their initial meeting begins with a case mistaken identity which makes for a very amusing meet cute. I really enjoyed this story! It was sweet, sexy, and had a lot of humor too. With loveable and relatable characters, full of witty banter this was a very fun read. It’s a great addition to her Only You series. I recommend this novella along with the rest of the series.
