Mr. Masters by T.L. Swan
5.0
my ultimate single dad book.
okay hear me out. I have read so many single dad books. that is my trope. I will forever be the biggest fan of those. I don't know what it is, but there is something in those books that make them superior to me. and let me tell you what, even after a year and a half of reading single dad books this is still my number one. Julian is the ultimate grumpy man, and when I mean no one can make him happy I mean it. He is looking for a live in nanny to be able to help him take care of his two kids. And Brielle is up for the job, except that she thinks that Julian is a woman. So much to her surprise, when she is greeted at the airport by Judge Masters, she is in for a rude awakening. She definitely is not as prepared to become nanny of the year or anything, she doesn't even have that much experience with kids. There is a lot of tension in this book, and I am here for it. Brielle is trying to do everything in her power to help and be there, but the oldest Willow is determined to make her life a living hell. She is such an angsty teen and is the complete opposite of her younger brother, Sammy. It was so easy to fall in love with them, and to see their relationship with Brielle grow was so sweet. She deeply cares for them and it was just really beautiful. I also loved seeing the tension that Julian had with himself as he finally let someone in and see him be vulnerable. There was a third act breakup, but i personally don't mind those. This book made me have all the feels, cry my heart out, and also had me laughing uncontrollably. Their epilogue was also something that made my heart swoon. This will forever have a special place in my heart. Also the narration is absolute fire. I'm going to be honest, I re-listen to this book at least once a month because of how much I love their story. forever one of my favorites.
