This is the third book in the Sweetheart’s Treats Series. Although it can be read alone, you may want to read them in order. Derek: Being a single dad has never been easy, but I’ve never regretted my decision to keep my daughter and raise her alone. I regret how it happened, but never her. Now that she’s grown, maybe I should start looking for the one who will make me happy. The one problem is, … problem is, I’ve already found her, but she’s way too young for me. I want her to the point of madness. I want to love her and make a family with her, but instead, I’ll keep watching her from a short distance.
Tracy: Why does he do this to me? He’s a hardheaded jerk, but I can’t let my feelings for the sheriff go. He’s always around, but I guess living in a small town it’s only natural. I wish that he wouldn’t though because my heart can’t take this. Leaving town may be my best bet, but I don’t think I have it in me to leave. Something has to give.
Will they finally admit their feelings, or will they miss their greatest opportunity to be happy?
This is a face-paced fictional novella with possible triggers.

I loved this story so much! I’ve been waiting to read about Derek since the first story of the series came out and I finally got my wish! 🙂
Derek and Tracy have insane chemistry that was off the charts HOT and I loved how they were together once the hesitations were thrown off the window.
For me, this story was more emotional than the previous two because we found out more about Derek’s background story and it was sad and at the same time, what he did was brave and honorable 🙂
In this one, there are a lot of secrets being discovered and revealed, that have to mainly do with Derek, Amelia and her mother… that’s a surprising twist I didn’t see coming but it made me love Derek even more as a man, father and as an amazing human being
I’m glad he was able to also get his happily ever after with Tracy because he deserved it 🙂
Tracy, our curvy heroine, which Derek loves all those curves and is mighty possessive of them to 😉 She is younger than Derek by over a decade but is mature beyond her young years (she’s 23 and Derek is 35) with everything that’s she’s been through in her life, she’s strong.
Tracy is a determined, sassy, sweet and caring young woman. She starts working at the diner and that’s where she meets the love of her life, unbeknownst to her, Derek
At first, Derek’s resisting the pull that he feels for Tracy but after some twists, secrets, and some danger lurking around the corner, especially near Tracy, he decides enough is enough and stop denying what he truly feels and claims his woman… and what a claiming it was 😉
He’s super alpha and dominant when it comes to Tracy, so the steamy scenes were very HOT!
There’s a lot going in this story that has to do mainly when Derek’s older sister; there’s a major twist & secret that’s revealed which connects to Amelia… can’t spoil it for you guys so go read this so the suspense doesn’t kill you, you won’t regret reading this one 🙂
This story has a little bit of everything that makes you sit on the edge of your seat or bed 😉 when reading because you’re trying to guess what will happen next, but it always seems to catch you by surprise, which is a good thing when you’re reading a story 🙂
C.M. Steele did an amazing job with Derek and Tracy’s story
I completely fell in love with the epilogues; the first epilogue is from 1 year into their lives and then the second epilogue, which is my favorite, is 24 years into their lives and it was hot and funny at the same time because Derek still couldn’t keep his hands off of Tracy’s curves and their kids’ reaction when he did that and started talking dirty to her was hilarious, especially when these two were in their own bubble thinking the kids had left already 🙂 Just go check this read out and you’ll see why I saw this scene funny and beautiful at the same time , you won’t regret it 🙂
