Was a good read definitely enjoyed the characters and story arcs, well written will definitely be interested in reading more from the author in the future.

This is a gentle love story with likeable characters and emotional situations. Delaney weaves a sweet romance with believable relationships, from Garrett who is learning to be a dad, Libby who is learning to trust and the cute kids who are so well written. The plot evolves as Garrett and Libby fall in love through their shared troubles.
A warm and delightful read.

I found this to be an odd book. I like some parts of it but found others strange. I liked that this story took the time to build the relationship between the characters but then there wasn't enough time to truly expand upon feelings etc, so in the end it felt a little rushed. Also, there could have been a lot more chemistry between them, I didn't quite feel it as much as I should have.

The characters were ok but I had an issue with some of Garret's actions towards the end. I don't want to give anything away but he is both unobservant and stupid not to notice when someone is being threatening and when a woman and child are clearly terrified. I was stunned at his actions to be honest.

Other than that this is an interesting enough read.

This is a really sweet read and i really enjoyed it.I just loved Garrett with baby Sophie this is a great read its very well written with fantastic characters would recommend it.

I loved this book this was the first book that I have read by Roxann and I will be reading more of her work in the future. I read this book in one sitting as I was hooked from the very first page and I couldn't put my kindle down while reading this book.

I loved the chemistry and connection between Garret and Libby and when I was not reading this book I was thinking about what was going to happen next with them. I loved Garret and I loved how he stepped up straight away for Libby's daughter Sophie and I enjoyed his relationship with Noah.

I also enjoyed reading about Libby she was a relatable character with having trust issues and I loved how she was a great mum and her love for sophie. This was a sweet romance and a quick read and I totally recommend it.

I gave this book three stars - it was an okay read but it was slow, lacked detail and I didn't really feel the story went anywhere.

I haven't read any of this authors work, but I will after this . I love stories like this, where single dads, who aren't ashamed to ask for help, get so much more...The characters, especially the kids were well written

Overall such a lovely Story

Bachelor Dad by Roxann Delany is a Mills and Boon American Romance. Set in Desperation, Garrett Miles, an attorney receives a package, his four year old little girl that he didn't know he had! Libby Carter and her son, Noah, also live in the town after fleeing her abusive husband when she lost custody of Noah to him. She is eeking out a living as a waitress and desperately needs child care as does Garrett. They come to an arrangement, minding each others child. Garrett is not aware Libby is on the run until her ex husband turns up to drag her home. You will have to find out the ending!

Bachelor Dad is a very clean cut all American romance. Unlike the Mills and Boon Modern series it is very clean cut, sweet romance (no explicit sex scenes). The book focuses on Libby's trust issues, Garrett's determination to step up and learn to be a dad, his relationship with Noah and his past experiences as a child custody/divorce attorney colouring his opinion of Libby and her ex which very nearly leads to tragic consequences.

This is a new cover on an old story (from 2011), with the same title and blurb, with nothing new or different, taken out of its original series and put into another linked by a similar theme: fatherhood. Having said that, I’ve not read any of the rest of the Hearts of Desperation series and I got along just fine.

I really enjoyed this. It’s sweet and clean, with likeable characters and emotional situations. Garrett might not have been looking for deeper commitments in his busy life, but I loved the way he instantly stepped up for little Sophie. I also liked how he tried to help Libby without taking over. Plus his relationship with Noah is great.

I liked Libby too, though she has a lot to work through. Her trust issues are understandable, but she’s still a great mother and the way she cares for Sophie too is lovely. They’re a great team and I enjoyed seeing all four of them form bonds and come together.

Of course, it’s not all plain sailing with a troublesome past and a not-perfect present, but if you like sweet romances with cute kids and people slowly falling in love through shared troubles, then you might enjoy this. I know I did.
