THE PROBLEM

Single Dad Support Group - Book One

by Piper Scott

Release Date: April 9, 2018

Review

A wonderful story that includes MPREG, a really supportive father, and a man who’s finding his path in life. And in the end, a beautiful family with so much love and care.

Laurence and Alex have amazing chemistry, and Laurence showed up again and again in the most kind and compassionate way. No matter what else was going on in his life, he showed up for Alex, proving his love is more than their circumstances.

There’s a bit of tension, a lot of hotness, and some humour to balance it all out.

Synopsis

Mature single dad Laurence Gwynn isn’t looking for love. He’s happily divorced, the proud father of a teenage boy, and being considered for a promotion at the prestigious company he works for. A relationship would only be a distraction—at this point in his life, he’s better off on his own…

Or at least, so he thinks, until he winds up in Alex Harper’s bed.

Alex is charismatic, wild, and reckless. Too young for Laurence, and too volatile. The kind of kid who eats men up and spits them out.

Laurence’s opposite in every way.

They should be incompatible, and they shouldn’t keep seeing each other, especially after certain key details regarding Alex’s identity come to light…

But for men who don’t believe in love, when it comes to each other, they can’t seem to keep their hands to themselves.

The Problem is the first book in the Single Dad Support Group series, in which a close-knit group of single dads find their HEAs one by one. It features a very proper, scientifically-minded single dad who thinks he has life all figured out and a spunky young artist with trust issues who unwittingly proves him wrong. Throughout the series you’ll find humor, heat, and the possibility of male pregnancy. Each book follows a different couple and ends in a happily ever after—no cliffhangers, guaranteed.
