Book Blurb:

‘Tis the season… For unexpected love!

Officer Jonathan Maxwell is just as devoted to his job as he is to his two young daughters, leaving zero time for a social life. Until he meets Brooke Novak. The newly hired community center director is a single parent, too, and also part of his latest investigation. Jonathan needs Brooke’s help if he’s going to close his case by Thanksgiving…but she might be the biggest distraction from keeping his mind on his job.

My rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My review:

The Single Dad’s Holiday Match is the first book in the Smoky Mountain First Responders series.  This was a new-to-me author, and I am so glad I got a chance to read this book.  It was so emotional and encouraging.  

Single mom Brooke Novak had been let down by so many people, but she stills has such a positive outlook.  She believes in the good of people even though she has had a rough life.  She has raised her son by herself, finished college, and now has a job she loves in Hollydale.  She wants to help the community by improving the community center and she has a heart of gold.  It was hard for her to allow herself to open up again after being whispered about in her small hometown when she became pregnant.  She slowly starts to feel comfortable and part of something with the warm welcoming from her aunt and her friends.

Widower Jonathan Maxwell is raising his two daughters after losing his wife five years ago.  He moved back to Hollydale to be near his family and took a position as a police officer. He was previously a detective and wanted to return to the position.  Town politics could keep him from getting the position but if he solves this case, it will improve his chances. 

I love how dedicated Jonathan is to his family and job.  He is determined to be more active in his children’s lives than his parents were in his.  The chemistry between Jonathan and Brooke was there from the beginning but trust and conflict from the case kept them from going all in.  I loved meeting all the people who live in the small-town of Hollydale and look forward to discovering more books by Tanya Agler. 

I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
