I truly enjoyed Single Dads Club by Therese Beharrie. In this story, Delilah works at a cafe where she gets excited every time Rowan walks in with his baby boy, Declan. She finds him attractive but in the chaos of new fatherhood he barely even notices her. So much of this book is about Delilah waiting on Rowan to notice her, his noticing for a moment, and then leaving Delilah feeling rejected yet again.

It's not that Rowan isn't ready to love again, he just has a lot to figure out. His fling with Declan's mother, McKenna, wasn't supposed to result in a pregnancy and he is struggling to adjust to the new demands on his time not to mention the lack of sleep. I love how the author was able to respectfully demonstrate the impact the stress of new fatherhood has on his sex drive and virility as well- a topic not often approached in literature especially as it pertains to Black men!

I enjoyed how this book dealt with sensitive themes from a male perspective with compassion and kind-heartedness. The humor made this book a fun, fast-paced read as well! Delilah deserved to win Rowan's heart in the end and he deserved to find a love that would accept him unconditionally, as is. Rowan spends so much time in this book obsessing about how much of a mess he feels he is. He ends the book finally seeing himself the way others do- as a really great dad who is doing his best.

This was truly such a charming read and a refreshing new take on single fatherhood and learning to love once again.

Thank you to the author and publisher for the e-arc copy!
