Loving yourself is the first step on the road to healing.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 Mitch’s story …Single dad of Seattle, Mitch Benson can’t move, can’t blink, can’t think, let … move, can’t blink, can’t think, let alone do his job and photograph the woman on stage. Every fiber of his body wakes up when Paige McPherson starts to dance. She pours out her heart, bares her grief and pain for the world to see–the same grief and pain that has ruled his every waking moment since his wife passed and left him to raise their daughter alone. Paige is dancing his truth, and in that moment, Mitch knows his life is going to change.
Paige never thought she’d notice a man again, but there’s no ignoring Mitch–or the message in the photographs he takes. Learning to dance has reignited her passion for life and shattered the protective shell she’s built around her heart. That’s not good–no matter what anyone else says, it’s her fault she lost her son, and while she’s on the healing path, it’s a long journey and one she’s determined to take alone.
Mitch knows Paige thinks she doesn’t deserve a second chance at love, but he can’t bear to back away from the one woman who makes him feel alive again. He’s willing to fight for their future, whatever it takes.
Paige can’t deny her attraction for Mitch, but moving forward means betraying her past. Now she’s faced with a new dilemma–quit her job as the head pastry chef at a very prestigious Seattle restaurant and strike off on her own, or stay working for the boss from hell. Paige isn’t sure she’s ready for all the changes. Can the single dad save her in time? Or will grief and indecision swallow her whole?
**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.

There’s heartache, deep emotions, and a roller coaster ride to what could become a second chance at love and bright light for Mitch and Paige. I’m enamored by the poignancy of Cox writing and the way she depicts her characters, burrowing them into your skin once you start reading.

This is the third book in the single dad in Seattle series and I would recommend that you read them in order as this will give you a far better understanding of this world after all characters are in all the books

4.5 stars
Saved by the Single Dad is a beautiful addition to the Single Dads of Seattle series. I thought Adam and Violet were special but they have nothing on Mitch and Paige.
After losing four pregnancies, her marriage and so many pieces of her heart, it’s a wonder it still beats in her chest, Paige has been broken by life. Broken… At least that’s how she sees herself, not realizing she’s a freaking warrior princess for battling back from everything she’s endured. But one man, one in your face, not going away man is hell bent on making her see herself as he does and everything changes.
Mitch wasn’t looking for love, in fact, after losing his beloved wife, he didn’t think he’d ever love anyone again, outside of his daughter and sister. Coming face to face with Paige was a revelation to his heart and absolutely couldn’t be ignored. Breathtakingly beautiful but so fragile, she was like the finest Crystal. Determined to be show her how unbelievably strong and beautiful she is, his heart is open for the first time since his wife died.
This book is heartbreaking beautiful. You’ll cry, then laugh, then be sucked in by all the sexy. Mitch is a godsend to Paige and everyone should have such a fierce cheerleader in their life. I’m thoroughly enjoying the Single Dads of Seattle series and the next one already sounds amazing!

I received an Advanced Reader Copy. I am voluntarily leaving a review. Paige is the ex-wife of Adam and Mitch is the widowed brother of Violet (Dancing with the Single Dad). Paige and Mitch are both grieving their own losses, but find that there is a chemistry between them. Will they be able to find their way past the grief to find love again? This is the third book in the series. It can be read as a standalone, but, in my opinion, better if read in order. This book is, by far, the most emotional tale of the series. You can feel their losses as well as their chemistry. This is a solid 4.5 star read
This is book three of the Single Dad’s of Seattle series. This series just gets better and better. The characters are really down to earth and believable. You can really feel the pain Paige is in. Mitch is perfect for her. He is what she needed to start healing. Am looking forward to next book in this series. If you haven’t read this series all I can say is READ IT!!!!

Mitch is part of the single dads club after his wife Melissa died. He’s not looking for love but when he sees Paige dancing he can’t resist taking her photo.
Paige is getting her life back slowly after the divorce from Adam the two remain friends and have shared custody of their daughter. She needs to love herself and trust in her decisions.
I throughly enjoyed the book it was very well written with care and compassion shown.
This was everything. It was touching and so hot. The feelings, the desire…it feels real, and if it isn’t it should be.

Another winner by this amazing author who never disappoints! Somehow Ms. Cox has a way of writing these stories that weave a spell around her readers and the more they read, the harder they fall into her world. This is the third book in the series and it should be read in order to fully understand the characters. It picks up from where the second book, Dancing with the Single Dad, leaves off and brings to life Mitch and Paige’s story and what a tale it is. These two people share so much pain and suffering from their respective pasts and in some ways, they are each working through the pieces to build lives for themselves; which really makes them perfect for each other. When their daughters wind up spending a lot of time together, as they are best friends, Mitch and Paige are thrown together and their walls begin to come down the more they connect. Mitch sees her as a strong, confident woman and he cannot help but succumb to her charms. After everything that she has endured, Paige only sees her failures and the bruises to her self-esteem. Is Mitch up to the task of helping Paige see herself the way she truly is? Can Paige learn and accept everything that Mitch is willing to give her? This is one emotional rollercoaster with steamy scenes and some classic lines that will have you laughing. I highly recommend this book and cannot wait for the next one.
I volunteered to read an advance copy of this book. All opinions are my own.
Mitch is a photographer, widower and single dad of a young daughter. He belongs to a single dads group that meets every Saturday to play poker and gripe about the exes. His sister Violet, a retired ballerina and dance school owner, has hooked up with another single dad, Adam. When at a dance presentation, he is enamoured with the soloist on the stage. Turns out Paige is a mother and chef specialising in pastry, and Adam’s ex wife. Paige has had issues since before her divorce and needed to sort herself out. Adam is cool with Mitch dating is ex and even thinks he would be good for her. They have an uphill battle to get and stay together. Very well written. It’s a love story with its share of angsty moments and a bunch of steamy stuff.

Mitch and Violet both have had their fair share of heartache at the loss of loved ones. They both have lost children and Mitch also lost his wife who was the love of his life. When he saw Violet dance he was immediately drawn into her expressive dance and he knew that she had suffered great loss and he wanted to be the one to help her over it. As they ventured towards new possibilities will it also include redemption and love for them as well? I voluntarily agreed to receive an ARC of this book for an honest review.
This book melted me. I wasn’t drawn to Mitch and Paige, I didn’t see this storyline coming so soon. But the lessons learned and personal stories learned hit me hard in the heart and I swooned large! Mitch was so slow and patient with Paige. I loved this line and it’s the exact moment the book hooked me.
“ Love yourself the way you love your child, your parents, your friends and family. Love yourself the way others love you. You deserve to be loved. Open up your heart to yourself, and love yourself. The way I love you.”
Thank you Whitley for this storyline, one of the most classic romance of love pure love and courting I’ve read in awhile.
Mitch and Paige had me hooked. They have both lost so much in very different ways. I loved how Mitch was slow, patient and so understanding with Paige. Loss of any kind is hard and watching these two work through it and find the love they deserve was beautiful! I loved this story!
Saved By The Single Dad, Single Dads of Seattle Book 3, you know when the first page of a book makes you cry your in for a real emotional story, I loved this book so from the start to the finish it was just so consuming it drew me in made me feel so many things. Mitch and Paige’s story is just WOW. This series follow 10 single dads each with the own story, I love how in each book all the dads are there no matter what. This series is a must read for anyone.
I absolutely loved Mitch and Paige’s story. Both are grieving, trying to heal from loss. Whitley Cox did a fabulous job telling us their highly emotional, heartbreaking story. I loved the connection between them because you can really feel what they are going through.
This is the third book in the Single Dads of Seattle and they really need to be read in order, I enjoyed it just as much as the first two books. This is Paige and Mitch and I was hooked right from the start this is a great book to curl up with and I just did not want to put it down this is a great addition to the series and I really really enjoyed it
Very emotional story with Paige and Adam when Adam can’t take his eyes off the beautiful dance that Paige is doing, it is like she is showing you her pain with every step she takes so he photographs her and wants to know her. Paige is a chef but dancing helps her with the tragic loss she has suffered but then Adam shows up and together maybe they can heal the pain they are both suffering.

Loved this story. It helps us to understand that grief is a journey we must each travel our own way. When we lose a loved one, child, spouse, parent, sibling, friend the way we process it is different (not wrong) for everyone. Not only how we express it but how long it takes.
Though we do eventually move forward with life the holes in our heart will always be there even when we fill our life wit love and new people they don’t replace the ones we lost they just enrich our lives so that we can enjoy the life we live.
Join Mitch, Jada, Paige, Juliet, Adam and all their friends as they grieve and live their lives.

I have reservations about Paige finding love again. In the previous book, she seems very broken. But the author was able to make it work with Mitchel’s endless patience. It was a very lovely story. What Mitch did in the end is something I have not encountered before in a romance book. It was touching, almost heroic. [I received an advanced copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.]
