Unexpectedly sweet and blazing hot steam, now in one boxed set. Enjoy four full-length standalone novels featuring single dads from New York Times bestselling author Kendall Ryan in one complete volume.
The Dare
As an ER nurse, I've seen a lot of things, but this might take the cake. Because the charming hottie packing a whole lotta somethin' somethin' beneath his hospital gown? He's all kinds of naughty trouble. And I have time for exactly none of it.
I didn't expect to see Cade again - never expected the guy I treated in my ER would turn out to be the sweet, single dad I'm now secretly lusting over. Complicated doesn't even begin to cover it.
Only for TonightHe’s bossy, moody, and overprotective.
He’s also a pro athlete who needs to focus on winning games and staying out of the headlines.
I’m fiercely independent and need a man like I need a second period each month.
So when our worlds collide, I never expected him to be the one to jump in and save me. Especially not when my roommate disappears, leaving me with her baby.
I’m clueless about babies - and it shows. Good thing Alexei isn’t. With six nieces and nephews and an apparent hero complex, the dude is both sexy and more than capable. It’s a combination that makes it easy to forget we’re just playing house.
Penthouse Prince
Lexington Dane was my brother’s best friend growing up. We did everything together. He taught me how to throw a punch, how to change a tire…and he taught me how to kiss. I fell hard and fast, and gave him all my firsts.
I promised I’d wait for him… But I’m done waiting, because he went off to college and never came back. He took his fancy business degree and moved to New York City, where he promptly became a real estate mogul—turning every penthouse and apartment project he touched into gold. It’s been ten years, and now he’s back and needs a favor…someone to watch his little girl. That’s right, the cocky penthouse prince and heartbreaker extraordinaire Lexington is back with an adorable two-year-old daughter.
Guess who he wants to watch her? I’ve never been able to say no to him. I might agree to be the nanny for his precious little angel, but there’s no way in hell I’m falling for her hot-as-sin daddy.
The Soul Mate
The smoking-hot one-night stand I was never supposed to see again?
Yeah, well, I might be pregnant, and he’s my OB-GYN.

I was looking forward to this. 4 different stories of single dads, sounds dreamy. BUT I only got one honest single dad.
The dare : my first ever DNF, I'm not gonna read about a sex worker. Sorry just no. I was here for a cute daddy , not this. Absolutely not
Only for tonight : 2/5 ☆ Not a single dad story. I was disappointed. Fmc roomm8 disappears and leaves a baby behind. Mmc picks up the baby and the girl and saves them from poverty. Kinda cute, but wtf??
Penthouse prince : BEST ONE 4/5☆. An actual single dad who adores his baby. Nanny x daddy. YES. YES. Also Joe arden narrated this one so maybe I'm biased 😂😂😂
The soul mate: 3/5☆ , this was awkward but cute. Imagine having a one night stand, then realizing you might be pregnant and going to see a doctor...but your doctor is the baby daddy 😂😭
all four of these stories were really fun to listen to. I enjoyed that each story had a different way of parenthood. from a single dad with his own bio daughter to a man who may have gotten his one night stand pregnant. and the men were top tier. took care of their women like men should.
Four cute little stories. The fourth one had an obvious setup but then threw me a curve ball. Total brain candy all with HEAs and not much objectionable other than people getting in their own damn way with their foolishness. So…what you’d expect for this genre.
The Soul Mate is the fourth standalone in the Roommates series. I have loved each one of these books for different reasons. The storylines. The humor. The feels they give me. They have all been fast reads with the perfect amount of it all. The Soul Mate is Mason and Bren's story...
It was only supposed to be one night. One night of multiple, explosive orgasms. What Bren didn't expect was that she felt more for him. And that was exactly why she ghosted him. She could see herself fall for him. One night then she would forget. That was the plan until she thought she was pregnant and shows up to Dr. Bentley's. Well...at least now she knows what her one night stand's last name is.
Mason wanted more than one night. He had that feeling the moment he saw her. It was confirmed the night he had her in his bed. The passion and laughs did it for him. He was going to let her know just that when he woke up but she was gone. He looked for her but never expected that she would be a new patient. A new patient that needed to confirm a pregnancy. But, maybe just maybe this was another sign that they should be together. He wasn't going to give up. He needed to know. Which leads to a proposal. No, not that kind...
Mason and Bren both feel it. Feel the connection between them. Too bad one of them wants to run from it and the other wants to run towards it. Will they ever be on the same page?
I loved Mason. He is swoon-worthy. He is sweet, sexy, and can cook! A romantic on top of that. He also plays rugby. Yumminess all around. Bren sees all this and it scares the fuck out of her. She is an independent woman that doesn't want the heartbreak. She sees it enough with the animals she works with at the zoo. She also saw it growing up. Together, they have some big decisions to make. Feelings to discover. And do it knowing there could be a baby on the way.
Overall...it's a fast read with a unique storyline. It made me swoon. Laugh. Feel hot and bothered. And smile.
Quotes:
“You nerds all know how to pick each other.” “You’re a nerd, too, dude” I pointed out. “That doesn’t mean I like my women brainy.”
“That was nothing. He moved way too fast. Buying me a new computer for my birthday? Who did he think he was, fucking Christian Grey, for crying out loud? Take it easy, am I right?”
“If that’s the way you react to a blow job, you must not have had very many in your life,” she joked, but her hand fluttered to her throat and her eyes gleamed.
** PENTHOUSE PRINCE
4.5 Hearts
Penthouse Prince is Kendall Ryan’s newest standalone novel. As usual I didn’t read the synopsis so I had no idea I was about to read one of my favorites, a hot single dad romance. Yum!!
Ten years ago Lexington walked away from Corrigan and never looked back. He stayed friends with his oldest friend, her brother but he didn’t know about the relationship he had with his little sister. Dark would definitely kick Lexington’s ass for breaking his sister’s heart but he knows it will be different this time. He wasn’t back for her. He was back for his mom, and stability for his two year old daughter, Grier. Only he does need a favor from his ex...
He needs someone he trusts to watch his daughter and she could use some extra work while she was on summer break from teaching first graders. Win-win, right?
Corrigan was confused with her feelings. She hated him for leaving her behind when she was willing to wait. She thought she was over her first love but seeing him again and with a little cutie in tow...it made her heart melt. She doesn’t want to fall again so she needs to be professional. Watch Grier and go home. Easy, right?
Sure. Easier said than done.
Aw! Grier is the cutest!! And Lex and Corrigan are too. It’s a fun and fast read with lovable characters and adorableness!
Quotes:
“Corgi,” she says again. “Corgi reads stories.” “I guess that’s me.” I chuckle, pushing my plate away and pressing to my feet. “Silly me. I thought I was the nanny, not the family dog.”
“Forgiving and forgetting are two different things, Lexington. And I can’t just forget ten years of complete silence from you.”
“Some of the best things in life are unpredictable,” I murmur, blinking up at him with a knowing look.
** ONLY FOR TONIGHT 5 Hearts
Only for Tonight is Kendall Ryan’s next sweet and sexy standalone novel. If you read Dear, Jane then you have already met Alexei as Jane’s best friend and Weston’s teammate. I liked him then but have completely fallen for him now.
Alexei couldn’t afford any distractions. His agent has warned him to stay out of trouble after what happened at the end of last season. But there was no way he was just going to walk away from a woman who was being harassed by a creep on the street. His mother raised a gentleman, after-all. What he didn’t expect was to be buying her diapers, formula, and pacifiers just a few minutes later.
Ryleigh’s life was not all rainbows and butterflies before her ex-roommate left her baby with her without any instructions but now it was harder. She worked nights, barely paying her own rent, and now she had a two-month old to take care of. She was a hot mess. But, she was an independent hot mess who didn’t rely on anybody. Then he entered her life. A bossy, sexy pro-baller who wants to save the day. She doesn’t need a Knight in shining armor but it sure is nice to have someone there to guide her when it comes to Ella. A relief really. He was unexpected. A big teddy bear who made her ovaries explode every time he held the little girl in his arms. Could she let go of her instincts of doing everything on her own to let him in?
Omg!!! I loved this story. I devoured it in one sitting. Alexei is so damn sweet and mouth-watering hot. The way he wants to be there for Ryleigh and Ella is so freaking adorable. And I loved Ryleigh. She is far from being a gold-digging groupie. She is strong and doesn’t even care about Alexei’s job. She only cares for the man.
Overall...it’s one of my favorite Kendall books! Ever. I laughed, cried, and felt flushed. It’s a fast read that tucked at my heart strings.
Quotes:
Oh my God. The man comes complete with a Pack ’n Play. What planet am I living on?
“I’m not your problem, or your little outreach project. You don’t have to worry about me.”
When did this big, strapping jock become a 1950s housewife?
Four Books in One! These were cute little listens. The narration was great on all four books. Each story was sweet, funny and entertaining. All predictable with light plot lines but the spice was good and I enjoyed them overall. I like having light reads to listen to in the background while I work and these were perfect for that, plus these they were pretty short too!
Single Dads Club boxed set written by Kendall Ryan. Each story is a stand alone, unique and heart grabbing story. I wouldn’t have wanted to miss any of them. It’s a definite must read! The audio tracks are excellent!
Great book and good choices for each of the narrators. This was a bundle book, so there were multiple stories in one. My favorite was Penthouse Prince but I did not love The Dare, something about a porno star that doesn't sit too well with me. Overall though, I love Kendall Ryan's writing.
Straight from the first book, the MMC says he has to check his balls to make sure he's not growing a vag just cuz he was being a worry wart about her and the baby. Like wth is that supposed to mean? Ugh, help me...
Completely misleading “Single Dads Club” only two of the stories actually have a single dad as the MMC. I enjoyed all the stories but I rated it at a two for the overall set not the individual stories due to it being misleading.
