From New York Times bestselling author
Penelope Ward, comes a new standalone novel.
At first,
my neighbor Deacon frustrated me.
Sure, he
was great-looking and friendly.
But our
walls were thin, and on occasion, he’d bring women to his place and keep me
awake while he “entertained” them.
As a single
mother to an infant, I didn’t appreciate it.
So, finally
it was my turn.
When my
daughter wouldn’t stop wailing one night, Mr. Manwhore came knocking on my
door.
Miraculously,
at the sound of his voice, Sunny stopped crying. And when he held her…she
eventually fell asleep in his arms.
Deacon was
rough on the exterior, but apparently on the inside? Mr.
Single-and-Ready-to-Mingle was a baby whisperer.
After that
night, we became friends.
He’d go for
coffee runs. Come over to chat. Normal friend stuff.
But over
time, our conversations ran deeper. We got closer.
Until one
night we crossed the line.
Our
friendship turned into a complicated mess.
I’d gone
and fallen for a guy who’d sworn off commitment and kids.
I knew
Deacon was starting to care for me too, even though Sunny and I didn’t fit into
any plan he’d ever imagined for himself.
He was
wrong for me—so wrong that I’d dubbed him the “anti-boyfriend.”
Then why
did I wish more than anything that I could be the one woman to change him?

AUDIBLE / PAPERBACK
Oh My Heart!
Heartwarming and entertaining with characters that just touch your heart in a huge way.
The words written in this book are downright beautiful and inspirational. I read slowly as I just didn’t want it to end, I wanted instead to savour the story!
I wholeheartedly loved Carys, her strength and power to move forward was absolutely amazing. She is woman goals, I tell you. And the way she cares for Sunny just warms my heart so much.
Honestly enjoyed everything about the storyline as it is unique, well written and caused me to swoon, laugh and want the absolute best for the characters.
Deacon, what can I say. As her neighbour, deep down he is the most caring soul. Despite their initial meeting, lets just say he brings so much to the book.
Just when happiness abounds, sometimes something occurs and you wonder what will happen. My heart was in my throat and honestly wondered how things would go. Life is a myriad of experiences for sure.
An absolute must read in my honest opinion.
