Reeling from the painful rejection of a man he thought he loved, Asher is left holding the baby.

Ash wants a family, and is determined to continue with a surrogacy he’d begun with his ex. Bringing baby Mia home, he vows that he will be the best father he can be. Nothing in this world matters more to him than caring for his daughter, not even accidentally falling in lust with the doctor next door. Challenged by his growing attraction to Sean, and confronted by painful memories of his family, Ash has to learn that love is all that matters.

When ER doctor Sean moves in with his friends next door to sexy single father Ash, he falls so quickly it takes his breath away. The sex they have is hot, but Ash is adamant his heart is too full with love for his daughter to let anyone else in. Why is Sean the only one who sees how scared Ash is, and how can he prove to his new lover that he desperately wants the three of them to become a family?

Without giving too much away, this book has our lead Gay Single Wannabe Father suddenly finding himself alone as a dad to an adorable baby girl when the partner he was with takes off.
Luckily the new and now anxious father lives next door to a house comprising three guys, one of them being a Doctor, also Gay.
I am a huge R J Scott fan and luckily won two of her books at the start of 2023 choosing this as one of them.
I'm looking forward to many of her reads in future
A great, sweet book that arrived very quickly and well packaged
Any R J Scott book is highly recommended

Single is a feel-good MM story about a single father and his swoony neighbor. Despite the lack of sleep and experience, Asher wouldn't trade being Mia's dad. He started the surrogacy journey with his ex, who broke with him and move abroad.

Sean is an ER doctor who recently moved to the house next to Asher. He meets him by chance one night when his roommate Eric knocks on Ash's house by mistake while being drunk. While their first encounter is a disaster, Sean is smitten by the clearly tired yet hot dad.

But Asher doesn't trust easily and is not willing to allow others in. After being burned, the last he is expecting is to find someone to share his journey much less to love. But swoony Sean will show him that he is there for him and Mia. Their story is cute and filled with slow burn. There is no drama, just the natural progression of a new friendship that will eventually turn into more.

The narration by Sean Crisden is superb. Not only does he brilliantly bring Ash and Sean to life, but also the other characters.

Video game designer Asher Haynes , a new single father, is terrified. Terrified he'll fail at being the best father to his newborn daughter, Mia. He doesn't think he can get the hang of caring for Mia. (What a mess Ash is!) Thank heavens for his twin sister Siobhan.

Meanwhile Ash meets his new next-door neighbors which starts on the wrong foot. Firefighter Eric, police officer Leo, and ER doctor Sean Roberts recently moved into the neighborhood.

Because they woke his precious baby girl, Ash is NOT happy with the three first responders. At all!

Sean takes a huge interest in Asher but Ash is dedicated to Mia and has no time for dating or a relationship. But Sean knows who he wants and it helps that he finds Mia just as precious as her father does.

This is a sweet story and highly enjoyable. The characters are quirky and amiable. This quick read is worthy of your time. I easily recommend this.

I love reading stories about single parents, doing their thing and finding love at the same time. There’s just something about it that normally hits the spot for me. There’s a quiet strength that is present in characters like that. I was missing that feeling in this story. I’m usually a HUGE fan of hers but this, just didn’t do it for me.

So on to what I enjoyed ...

I liked Sean, Eric and Leo. A house full of first responders trying to find their place in the world. What isn’t to like about this? Also, they have a dog named Cap (short for Captain America)! Asher was every bit the flustered first-time parent. Some of his actions were things that anyone can be like, ‘yep, so-and-so totally did that’.

I really enjoyed Asher’s interactions with Brady. They got my mind moving and I was secretly rooting for a relationship to begin between the two of them. I wanted more text conversations and clues as to who Brady really is. I have my conspiracy theories, but I doubt they’ll come to be, seeing as the tone of Single is not that of a dramatic thriller.

What I didn’t enjoy …

There was so much information left out. I’m a huge believer in tossing the reader into the action of the story. But we barely got any back story to Asher or Sean. The characters were flat. I feel like I knew more about the secondary characters than I did about the Ash and Sean. There wasn’t that much interaction between Sean and Asher. I didn’t feel the chemistry between them. It was extremely short, I read it in about an hour and a half and if it were longer, their interactions drawn out, then perhaps I would have enjoyed this a lot more.

3.5 Stars! I really enjoyed Ash's and Sean's romance and am excited for this series.In Ash, we get an exhausted new father. His level of love, sleeplessness, and worry for his daughter really shines in this tale. Sean falls in love with Ash's dedication to his baby as well as to his lovely self.

They are both kind characters and the next door neighbors theme is really well done here.

Sean's friends and housemates promise excellent future books as does Ash's on line single gay dad support group.

We get a slow burn with lovely dates with baby in tow. It is a sweet and good and a lovely read. I treasure character driven low angst romance.

It is set in San Diego which I love. However, some of the details are just a tad off and that takes me out of the story in places. La Jolla is one of the most expensive places to live in the nation for example and I would like the nieghborhood would be more like Point Loma (still really pricey) or La Mesa (cute but inland).

Overall, a really pleasure time was had. When is the next one.

The author, RJ Scott, knows how to wrap her words around the reader's heart. New dad, Asher, is determined to be the best dad, ever. Little did he know how exhausting single parenting can be. Little Mia is a scene stealer, who worms her way into this reader's heart. Then, Ms. Scott introduces the guys next door and fireworks begin. The dynamics between the characters is off the charts hot. Sean and Asher tiptoe around each other. Will they, or won't they, take a chance on love? Is Asher ready to expand his growing "family"? What a captivating and amusing tale of two guys and an adorable baby girl.

5.0 out of 5 stars Super cute story!

4.5 stars. This was a super cute, single dad romance that I really enjoyed. There was a lot happening in this story so all together the story felt like one I haven’t read before which is always nice!! I also didn’t feel like there was too much to the story, there was a great balance between things going on in each MCs lives as well as with their romance.

I can relate to Asher soooo much! Nervous about everything when bringing a new baby home and the worry. Agh. I did really enjoy the very real portrayal of life with a little one. I loved seeing Asher’s confidence grow the more he got used to doing things on his own and always how realized having help wasn’t a bad thing!

Sean was amazing! He was such a sweet and caring character and I loved how quickly he too to Asher and Mia. His interest was in both of them from the start. He knew he couldn’t be with Asher without being there for Mia as well. I absolutely loved his little speech near the end of the book. So beautiful!

These two had a wonderful HEA and it was so perfect for them. I was intrigued about the characters in the next books so definitely want to read those at some point too! I look forward to reading more by this author in the future.
