About this listen
Who meets their soulmate shopping for bagels in a supermarket bakery aisle?
Before I moved to the small town of Silver Hills, I would have told you no one.
But the second I meet Henley Ward, I’m swept away.
He is everything I look for in a man: tall, strong and so handsome.
Our instant attraction, spirited banter, and heated glances leave a lasting impression…
Until I see him again.
Like a raging tornado, he storms into the school ready to take on the teacher who has crushed his daughter’s spirit.
The dedication this man has to his three daughters could be the sexiest thing I have ever seen.
Before we know it, we are stealing kisses in his kitchen and secretly getting together any chance we can.
I know I should stay away from Henley so I don’t lose my job, and his focus is on raising the girls and being the best wide receiver in football, but our attraction is intense and the draw between us is too tempting to resist.
I can only hope our secret love will survive when our truth is revealed.
Secret Love is book two in the Single Dad Playbook series. Each book can be listened to as a standalone.

Unfortunately, the circumstances behind that have never been my story to tell. But now, the truth is out, and I’m left to deal with the consequences. I’m living under the same roof as Weston, and each day, I discover a side of him I never expected.

Story
He's the hottest man I've ever seen, someone I can't forget. So it hurts when I find out I've slept with the enemy. As a list maker and a rule follower, the last thing I planned on one of the worst days of my life was to fall into bed with a guy who literally charmed the clothes right off of me. With him, I felt safe to lay my sadness down for the night and embrace a stranger. Little did I know, that hot, gorgeous man would be Jamison Ledger, the one who has taken everything I've ever wanted—my legacy, my happiness, and what I've worked my whole life to attain.

Story
Demi Crawford was Magnolia Falls royalty. I was the boxer from the wrong side of the tracks. She was the epitome of everything good, while I was broody and rebellious. We couldn’t be more different. Her family was enemy number one which made her guilty by association. I despised her before I even knew her. It was easier that way. But now she’d moved in next door to me, and she was everywhere I turned. I couldn’t avoid her no matter how hard I tried. She was beautiful and honest and sweet. Everything I knew I shouldn’t want. Shouldn’t need.

The scowl should’ve been my first clue to stay far away from Anson Hunt. The sexy smirk and the fact that he’s my brother’s best friend? Reasons two and three. Not to mention, he’s the new contractor working on my house. He’s everything I’m not: grumpy, rude, and more than a little attached to his solitude. It doesn’t matter how many times I try to kill him with kindness; the man simply won’t crack. Until he sees me shatter. Because when my world comes crashing down around me, Anson is the one catching me as I fall.

One letter changed my life. One night with him might change my forever. Inheriting a beach house in a small town you've never heard of is less than ideal. Falling for the broody bar owner who hates me because he wants the house? Even worse. I came to Carrington Cove for one reason: to renovate the home I knew nothing about, sell it, and get back to my life in D.C. and my multi-million dollar business. There was nothing on the agenda about falling for Dallas, the sexy former Marine who chastises me about my manners and withholds how to fend off the murderous geese on my property.

No thanks to a fire in the dorms, he just became my accidental roommate. Did I mention the hotel room our university moved us to has only one bed? Not ideal.

I caught her staring at me from across the quad, eyes fixed on the football jersey stretched across my wide chest. And if I flexed my muscles, showing off the strength of a defensive tackle, it was just to see her blush. And then she did, and I couldn’t get her out of my mind. Her wide eyes. The freckles on her cheeks. I needed to know her. The girl who scampered away every time we bumped into each other—by accident and by design.

The first time I met Dawson Reed, we wound up in bed. The problem was, neither of us knew the other were there. When I woke up in the middle of the night and found a stranger next to me, instinct kicked in and I attacked the intruder. Only it turned out, the man wasn’t an intruder at all. Dawson had rented this cabin, too. Apparently, a system glitch allowed a duplicate booking. We’d soon find out we were in town for the same wedding, and Dawson was the groomsman I’d been warned about. He was as tall, dark and jaw-droppingly gorgeous as my best friend had described.

So, imagine my surprise when I meet Zac Ledger at my sister's wedding. He is the total opposite of my usual type: gorgeous, confident, and genuine. He's also athletic, and I am so not.

When he first speaks to Norah Ellis, a rambling runaway bride who hitchhikes a ride from him, it’s to tell her to get out of his truck and walk because she’s a pain in the a-s-s. By appearance, Norah Ellis is a fancy fashionista who’s spent the last several years living the good life in the city—expensive apartments, highbrow events, and a fiancé with wealth and good looks. The only problem is that she didn’t choose any of it for herself.

Story
He's the hottest man I've ever seen, someone I can't forget. So it hurts when I find out I've slept with the enemy. As a list maker and a rule follower, the last thing I planned on one of the worst days of my life was to fall into bed with a guy who literally charmed the clothes right off of me. With him, I felt safe to lay my sadness down for the night and embrace a stranger. Little did I know, that hot, gorgeous man would be Jamison Ledger, the one who has taken everything I've ever wanted—my legacy, my happiness, and what I've worked my whole life to attain.

A little white lie never hurt anyone . . . or so I thought. One fake date and we’d go our separate ways, at least that’s how hockey’s hottest golden boy—Nixon Sinclair—convinced me this would work. But it turns out, Nix had other plans. Now I’m sneaking around with my brother’s teammate, refusing to admit he’s everything I want but never knew I needed.

The first time I met Dawson Reed, we wound up in bed. The problem was, neither of us knew the other were there. When I woke up in the middle of the night and found a stranger next to me, instinct kicked in and I attacked the intruder. Only it turned out, the man wasn’t an intruder at all. Dawson had rented this cabin, too. Apparently, a system glitch allowed a duplicate booking. We’d soon find out we were in town for the same wedding, and Dawson was the groomsman I’d been warned about. He was as tall, dark and jaw-droppingly gorgeous as my best friend had described.

👩🏫🏟️💞🏈👧
This was JUST what I needed to read! I’ve been on my TBR grind and kinda forgot to stop and really check in with myself. I am very much a mood reader and I’ve been on the precipice of a book slump and ignoring it. But this book was exactly what I needed to get right back into it!
This was my very first read from Willow Aster. I actually listened to the audio version of this book so let me get into that super quick. I wasn’t paying attention to who the narrators were so when I hit play and heard that Savannah Peachwood and Sebastian York were narrating this?!?! I knew IMMEDIATELY that I would love this book and I was right! Savannah and Sebastian always do the best job with narration and this was no different. Bravo to you two!
As for the book, I went into this blind. I just read the tropes, saw that it wasn’t an author I’ve heard yet and signed up real quick to listen to this book. And the story did not disappoint!!! I loved every aspect of this book. And, it was super heartwarming. Now, I’m not one to spoil anything so I won’t but, these two felt like walking soulmates.
If you love a sports romance (football), found family, forbidden, age gap stories with a hint of soulmates? This one is for you!

Loved every minute
Audio review:
Sweet and spicy. Romantic and heartaches. There are so many words I can use to describe this book but all of them don’t feel like enough to describe the feelings I had while listening to it. This book showed a healthy relationship between a divorced dad and his ex wife which was refreshing to see. A father who cared and loved his girls deeply. And the woman who comes in and brings a new level of love and happiness to their lives. I loved seeing how Tru and Henley navigate their love for each other and how his ex wife Bri is supportive and is so caring. Tru unwilling to leave Henley when he goes through some rough times can leave a girl teary eyed. Sebastian York perfectly plays Henley and the guys as his voice can heat things up and give a girl unrealistic expectations from men at the same time. Savannah Peachwood has a soft welcoming voice that matched exactly what I would hear for Tru , kind, timid, sweet , and loving. Perfect narration for such an amazing book.

All The Single Daddy Stars!
All the stars for Henley and Tru! I loved their story so much! Henley and his group of single dad teammates are seriously the sweetest thing! Henley was such a genuinely good guy we gave me the ooey gooey feels! I love how thoughtful Tru was with his girls feelings and not wanting to over step. They were both just truly fun and sweet! Also the spice was perfect! I would have loved to see a little further into their future to see if they had any kids or not. But the epilogue with the single dads was so freaking perfect! I can’t wait for Rhodes and Elle’s story!

Sweet and Swoony Small Town Romance!
Be still my heart, Tiny Dancer! Secret Love by Willow Aster was a sweet and swoony small-town sports romance that simply put the biggest grin on my face. Tru and Henley’s journey to HEA was full of flirty banter, adorable interactions with his daughters, and all that friends-to-lovers slow-burn spice that made this couple irresistible. Aster’s words always leave my heart so happy.
Savannah Peachwood and Sebastian York perform this audiobook in dual narration and are perfectly cast. Savannah’s youthful, upbeat tone complimented Tru’s passionate and dedicated persona as she eagerly stepped into her new role as a teacher and dance teacher while secretly falling in love with hunky Henley. Sebastian’s deep, warm voice depicted Henley’s charismatic lover and devoted dad demeanor as he did what was best for his daughters and his heart. Both narrators created just the right amount of forbidden steamy chemistry between Tru and Henley.
Overall, I loved this book. If you are a fan of a small-town romance with a hot talented wide receiver, a hardworking dark-haired teacher, three lovable daughters, an age gap, grocery store meet-cute, cinnamon rolls, single dad playbook entries, swoony first kisses, getting-to-know-you questions, football games, car steam, family fishing adventures, life-changing events, Halloween parties, and a HEA that dreams are made of then you will love Tru and Henley’s story. I always look forward to more from Willow Aster.

4.5 stars
This was a cute, low drama romance! This is Henley and Tru's story. Their meet cute was so adorable. Who would of thought they would meet their soulmate at the grocery store of all places. When Tru moved to Silver Hills, she thought no one could, but after meeting Henley she was immediately swept away by him. There's attraction, banter and heated glances. When Tru sees him again it's not under good circumstances. Henley thinks that she is the teacher that crushed his daughter's spirits. As they spend more time together they can't deny their romantic feelings for eachother.
I loved Henley's relationship with his daughters. He was supportive in their schooling and after school activities. I adored Tru. Despite her 12 yr age gap with Henley, she was mature and understanding. She was a great teacher and great support for the girls. It was great seeing the guys again. Their friendship is always fun and they always have eachother's backs. I love that. Their group chats show their easy camaraderie.
As for the audiobook narration, it's amazing! Performed in dual narration by Sebastian York and Savannah Peachwood. These two nailed it! Sebastian conveyed Henley as a loving father and showed Henley's fun side with his friends. Savannah conveyed Tru with so much compassion. She showed how Tru wore her heart on her sleeve. The epilogue by Sebastian had me laughing and loving the guys even more. What a great addition to the series!

Loving this Single Dad Playbook Series
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
🌶️🌶️🌶️
I am absolutely loving this Single Dad Playbook series. The first book stole my heart, and this one was also super sweet. One of my favorite parts of this series is the single dad group of amazing football players. They are so adorable, and I love the Single Dad Playbook they all share.
Henley is a busy single father to 3 amazing daughters. He runs into Tru at the grocery store, and they really hit it off. However, their second meeting doesn’t go so great when he goes to tell off his daughter’s rude teacher, but he ends up giving major attitude to Tru instead. Tru is actually the substitute teacher for his daughter, and she didn’t appreciate how he came at her. They keep running into each other, and she quickly realizes what an amazing father he is. She spends a lot more time with him when she offers to help his daughter with her dyslexia after school at his house.
They couldn’t deny their connection for long and decide to secretly date since she is his daughter's teacher. I loved how Tru really built a sweet relationship with his daughters and his ex-wife, with whom he had a great relationship. I appreciate seeing how well he co-parented with his ex. I love reading romances without a toxic, crazy ex.
🎧 Audiobook Review 🎧
Sebastian York and Savannah Peachwood did a fantastic job narrating this sweet, single dad romance. They always bring all the emotions and chemistry to their performances. I highly recommend the audiobooks for this series.

Henley & Tru ❤️
4. 5 ⭐️
I devoured this audiobook! Sebastian York & Savannah Peachwood did a really good job bringing this story to life. I felt like I was right there watching everything play out.
I loved everything about Tru & Henley. The banter that these two share was so fun. I really giggled a lot throughout this book. Henley is so thoughtful and is an amazing single dad. I really liked that he still had a good friendship with the girls mom. The way Henley was able to be the best dad he could be and play football was great. Who knew the hottie he saw while getting bagels was going to be the substitute teacher for one of his daughter English class, however he didn’t know her name and definitely laid into her and threw Tru under the bus, Tru gave right back to him especially with what she had to go though growing up with her dad. Tru and Henley keep running into each other and even though Tru was on the fence about giving them a relationship she couldn’t deny all the chemistry they had.
The “Single Dad Playbook” with all the guys was fun. How this brings all the guys together and all the times they have together it shows how much they have each other’s back and how much they care for one another.
I really enjoyed this book and I am excited for what book 3 brings!
“This is how falling in love is supposed to feel.”
“Goodnight tiny dancer. I know who I’ll be dreaming about tonight.”

Small town. Single dad. All the feels.
Story Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (0-5)
Narration: 🎧🎧🎧🎧🎧 (0-5)
Overall: 4.5/5
Steam: 🔥🔥🔥☄️ (0-5) I bump up for public places/outdoor spaces.
What I’m Starry-Eyed Over:
🤩 All the feels—I laughed, I cried, and oh how this book made me a big bundle of turned-on nerves. The sizzling hot details are so scrumptious.
🤩 The narrators are fabulous and totally intensify all these amazing feels.
🤩 Small town. Single dad.
🤩 Henley Ward is a professional football player for the Colorado Mustangs.
🤩 A meet cute and then a meet ugly—Tru is his daughter’s teacher.
🤩 Cinnamon rolls as groveling.
🤩 Meddling friends.
🤩 Dancing at the bar.
🤩 More dancing.
🤩 Swoony text chats.
🤩 Open and honest communication.
🤩 Ummm, hello closet at school. Shhh!
🤩 Really hard times written so very well.
🤩 Two dozen secret pumpkins.
🤩 Friends, family, teammates—so much love.
🤩 Sadie and Weston cameos—you don’t have to read their story first, but I highly recommend Mad Love.
What I’m Wishing/Dizzy About:
💫 I’m a reading teacher, and I do not evaluate students for dyslexia or any kind of reading disability. That’s done by a psychologist (at least here in Iowa).
💫 The mentions of post-surgery steam, but I didn’t really get to experience it. I really wanted to feel the desire and intimacy after the hard times.
