This baby daddy and baby mama story is not what you might be expecting, at all. Brant’s sister is in a car accident caused by a drunk driver. First of all, she doesn’t die, and the person at fault is not who you might expect. There are three brothers and one sister in the family and Brant is the one who has to step up and take charge because their sister Lainey needs to recover and she has a 7 month old baby. They have living parents but there is no one else who can do what needs to be done.
Baby Jax is an adorable baby and steals the show often enough, but there is a lot of reality here, including how exhausting it is to care for an infant, especially for a bachelor who has no idea what to do and no apparatus for a baby. No car seat, no bottles, no food, no crib, and so on. Getting by on no sleep is only the first sacrifice.
Brant and his brothers Tucker and Gaven are vintage car restorers. They’ve even appeared on TV. Right now their business is outgrowing the facilities they currently occupy so they are looking for a new shop they can expand into. They stumble into the small Georgia town of Misty Bottoms, not really expecting to move there but sometimes fate steps in.
Misty Bottoms was a failing small town until four women formed an alliance, with one of them restoring an old antebellum home as a wedding venue, one opens a florist shop, one is a baker, and one, the heroine of this story, Molly, has opened a bridal boutique. The town begins to shine again, slowly but surely, and not the Brant and his brothers are poised to open a vintage vehicle restoration facility that will bring wealthy car and motorcycle owners seeking their services.
Molly has a list of her life plans, down to at what age she expects to accomplish what. Her father left her and her mother, which left a scar on Molly’s heart and soul, but she doesn’t know the story behind that. Another man cheated on her and left her, so strike two. Needless to say, trust is in short supply for Molly. Brant has to fight for every opening into Molly’s tightly sealed box of distrust, and sometimes even he thinks it’s time to give up.
There are several romances and love stories going on at the same time. In addition the whole town steps in to help Brant and Molly as needed. It’s a very sweet story and it ends with several HFNs. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in this series.

This one was a total miss for me. I am not sure of it was the writing or my mood, but I felt like something was off and choppy. The story didn't add up to me. I skimmed most of the end because I wanted to see what eventually happened.

I wanted more from the blurb that was presented, but it didn’t happen sadly

Brant and Molly's romance. Small town Georgia, and Brant is in town to attend a wedding and look for a property for him and his brothers' car restoration business. Molly runs the bridal shop in town, and sparks flew at the wedding. Brant gets called away when he finds out his sister had been in a car accident and as a single mother needs someone to take care of her seven month old son. Brant, with little to no experience, steps in and it is learn as you go. A little slow to start, trying to keep track of who is who, but as the story progressed it was hard to put down. Would give it 4.5 stars. Highly recommend this book and author, and since there are three brothers and a sister, expect there will be a possibility for more books in a series.

Brant’s life changes dramatically when his sister is in a car accident and he has to step up and take care of his seven month old nephew, Jax. As one of the Wylder brothers who are well known for their auto/bike restoration Brant is trying to find a new location for the shop he and his brothers run. Misty Bottoms, a small town, has a lot to offer and opens its hearts and doors to Brant and Jax. Molly is one of Misty Bottoms’ members who steps up to help Brant. Although she doesn’t want a serious relationship, her heart doesn’t seem to get the memo. I loved the various characters in this story from Brant and Molly’s families to the townspeople in Misty Bottoms. I want to go back and read some of the previous stories about the townspeople who have found each other and I can’t wait to see the next stories Lynnette Austin come up with for the Wylder brothers.

I'm going to be very honest... I couldn't get into this story after reading the first 2 chapters... I skipped ahead and read another chapter and still couldn't get into it. I really feel I gave it my best shot. I officially gave up on it today. It could be a great book, but just not for me.
The cover is beautiful and is what drew me to want to read this story.
