Book Review: Axe Backwards
🎧What’s in my ears? 🎧
📚AXE BACKWARDS by Daphne Elliot
🎤Duet narration by Samantha Cook & Gabriel Spires
Preorder this Single Dad, fake dating romance now, listen August 11:
Once in a while, after life gets you down, the universe throws you a bone. And if you’re really lucky, it comes in the form of a tattooed baby-wearing firefighter with piercing blue eyes and a heart of gold.
When Noah Hebert swung his axe and rescued me from a coffee shop bathroom, I had only a vague sense of who the tattooed lumberjack was. Turns out he’s more than broad shoulders and a thick beard. He’s a devoted single dad and my new neighbor.
Soon after, we find ourselves falling into an easy friendship. I help him with his fussy baby, and he helps me survive my ex-husband and little sister’s wedding. Despite my vow never to risk my heart again, my defenses quickly crumble. The sight of him rocking his sweet baby in those muscular, inked arms only makes matters worse. And when he defends me to my toxic family, the sparks of attraction between us catch fire.
I moved back here with a mission. Grow the food pantry and make our little town a better place. I can’t get mixed up with the grieving single dad, even if he likes to braid my hair and slow dance in the kitchen.
He moved across the country to escape the flames of his past and protect the little girl he now calls his own. But our town is sitting on a bed of secrets ready to ignite.
And when the heat causes my world to go up in smoke, I’m not sure it’s possible to sift through the rubble and find our happily ever after.
My Review
Ahh, I enjoyed this book. I have said it before, and I will say it again but listening to the audiobook is the way to experience this series. Love listening to Samantha and Gabriel voice the audiobook. Another nice addition to this series.
If you like slow burn romances and single dad trope, you will want to read this book or listen to it. I am a sucker for a hot, single dad. Noah is such a great dad. He is so caring.
Victoria is sweet. She and Noah may have had a slight bumpy start with each other but the more time they spent with each other, you could see them coming around. It made the connection between them that more genuine.
