He Saved My Boy

Rate this book
Davis is the first guy to catch my attention since… hell I don’t even know.
Instantly, he made me think and feel things I forgot existed. It has been forever since I put my needs first, so I took the chance and let him light me up from the inside out.
Little did I know one night with him would ruin me for all others.
But then I got the dreaded call. I rushed out without a second glance, knowing I’d likely never see him again.
My son will always come first – Always.
Imagine my surprise when Davis walks in and I find he’s the only one who can save my boy.
This cannot be happening – I guess it’s time to pull up my big girl panties and see what happens.

*ALC received from Audibly Addicted in exchange for my honest review. *

Seeing the title of this book I was already prepared to bawl my eyes out. Luckily, it didn't go the way I thought it would, but Amanda Shelley still got some tears out of me.

Teagan and Davis had undeniable chemistry form their first meeting. Two adults on vacation with nothing ahead of them but time decide to have breakfast together. Breakfast leads to a series of events that leave them both feeling like they are living life for the first time in such a long time. After a beautiful night together, everything has shifted. Davis wakes up alone, wondering what could have made Teagan leave after the night they just shared together. When an unexpected call has Davis cutting his vacation short to head back to Austin for a patient, he decides the only thing he can do is let go of the beautiful woman that changed something in him after only one day. Seems fate had other ideas because even though Teagan left Davis unexpectedly, he hasn't seen the last of her.

Kelsey Navarro is a newish to me narrator and she did such a good job with Keagan. The only complaint I had is I would have liked a bit more emotion or feeling in the intimate scenes, but it wasn't enough to hinder the story. Tim Paige on the other hand is a narrator I have listened to several times over now and with every one of his books narrations I see what everyone keeps talking about. He does emotion so well that when Davis was tearing up, I was too. There is only one other narrator I can think of who has that type of pull over me.

This is my second book in the All American Boys series and I adore that the stories all seem to be very different. They aren't just copy and pasted from the previous stories and that is really refreshing. If you want a feel-good story about finding love in the most unexpected way, then dive right on in to He Saved My Boy.

This is a book in The All American Boy series and it is Davis and Teagan's story and omg it is definitely a must read. Teagan is a single mom to her son and while he is staying with his grandparents Teagan decides to take some me time and and relax and that is when she meets Davis and they spend time together but then she has a message and has to leave quickly as something is wrong with her son and regardless of anything else he always comes first in her life. Davis is in need of a vacation and he meets Teagan and the more time that they spend together and makes him feel things and there attraction and chemistry is so strong that they end up spending a really special night together only for Teagan to disappear and he has no idea why and also no way to contact her and then he gets a telephone call that he is needed back for a patient so image his surprise when it turns out to be Teagan's son but will be be able to save Teagan's son and give them a second chance to see if they can get a happy ending. Wow I absolutely loved this book and I couldn't put it down and had to keep turning the pages to see what would happen next. I definitely recommend you read this book and you will not be disappointed.

He Saved My Boy
By: Amanda Shelley
Narrated by: Tim Paige, Kelsey Navarro

From the first time they bump into each other, Teagan and Deacon have undeniable chemistry. Both enjoying a "me-cation", they decide to enjoy some time together resulting in a night of passion. Next thing Deacon knows, Teagan has fled. He thought they had something to build on, but with her gone, he may have guessed wrong. That is until he is called home for an emergency surgery, for none other than her four year old son. Now the fun really begins. Will these two find that there is more to their relationship? Was it just one night? Will they be able to wait until it's alright to be together? I love these characters! Teagan is an incredible woman. Successful, motivated, a wonderful mother and she has a wonderful support system. She truly deserves that me-cation! Deacon is sweet. I love his personality, the way his is with children and his devotion to Teagan. Plus his brothers are so much fun! They are hysterical. This is a fun, easy listen, one that will definitely warm the heart and make you smile.

Tim Paige and Kelsey Navarro are an amazing team. I have listened to many of their narrations and this one is top of my list. Paige falls into character as Deacon, keeping him real. I find his voice is suited well for him, keeping him professional in one breath and romantic in the next. Navarro is spot on with Teagan. She keeps Teagan strong in times of distress and at the simultaneously keeps her vulnerable and loving. I enjoyed this book and their performance.

A Wonderfully Delightful Story & Listen🎧

He Saved My Boy
By: Amanda Shelley
Narrated by: Tim Paige, Kelsey Navarro

Amanda Shelley pens another fabulously delightful “All-American Boy” standalone romance novel, a darling instant attraction, high heat romance. The story drew me in right from the start, grabbing my attention and captivating it the entire time. The characters are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with, they are each to like and care about too. Davis Fallon, a doctor in Austin, is taking a much needed vacation, a me-cation, staying at a B & B in Deacon, Texas, a charming small town. Teagan Frost, a single mom, is also taking a much needed vacation, enjoying some me time while her four-year-old son visits his grandparents in Texas. A chance encounter puts these two on the same path, staying at the same B&B and having some site seeing plans in common. They enjoy some time together and the chemistry between them is sizzling, and it turns into a steamy night together. But an emergency with her son has her leaving in a hurry, Davis was out at the time so she did not have time to say goodbye and did not leave a note. Davis also gets called back to the hospital for an emergency, he does not know where Teagan went but left a note for her. He can not get her out of her mind and when he gets back to the hospital and meets his patient, it surprised him who else is there. I loved how everything plays out in this book, it is a beautifully plotted story that has a perfect balance of drama, charm, heartfelt emotions and steamy romance. Amanda Shelley, thank you for another wonderfully entertaining and enjoyable story.

🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous narration, Amanda Shelley chose the perfect cast to bring her characters and story to life. The superbly talented Tim Paige and Kelsey Navarro are amazing at what they do, they make a great team and their voices and performances complement each other. They have a complete understanding of the characters they portray, give each a voice that fits their character’s persona perfectly, sounding believable and just as I pictured the characters to sound. Kelsey Navarro nailed it as Teagan, capturing her every emotion and has you feeling every single one. Tim Paige does the same for Davis, playing his role with perfection and a whole lot of heart. Both were great at performing the roles of the secondary characters as well. These entertaining storytellers are a pleasure to listen to and their narration enhances an already amazing story to another level. Thank you for another exceptional listen.

**Audiobook Review**
He Saved my Boy is a sexy love story on the lighter and sweeter side. Davis and Teagan meet while both are on solo vacations. Their instant explosive chemistry was addicting from the start. The story is about finding unexpected love and overcoming the obstacles that a forbidden storyline offers. Teagan, single mom to Connor is narrated by Kelsey Navarro. Her performance was excellent. Emotional and humorous and fun loving. Kelsey has perfect range and her tone is easy to listen to and fall in love with her character. Davis is an orthopedic surgeon. He is a busy, successful doctor. He is protective and nuturing towards Teagan and Connor as they come back into each others lives by chance. Tim's performance as Davis is steamy and sweet, with bits of humor and emotion packed in between. Both Tim and Kelsey have fantastic vocal chemistry. I love when these two pair together and always look forward to more by them.

Davis and Teagan's story was a sweet one although I was expecting a more emotional read from the title. These two met on a trip and they're staying at the same place. They only spent a whole day with each other until Teagan had to leave without telling him because her son had an emergency. And what do you know the doctor to perform her son's surgery turns out to be Davis. They wanted to make a go at their attraction but they couldn't as her son was still his patient.

I loved how their relationship works out and how they found each other. I loved Teagan's son too, he's so smart and adorable. But I think the ending was a little abrupt. I wished it was a little flushed out. I didn't want it to end so quick.

Cute kizmet story, worth the quick read

I wasn't sure what to expect from the title, a doctor yes but not an orthopedic surgeon. Just goes to show, don't judge a book by its cover:) The book had great characters that were very relatable. Loved the humor, and the bad dad jokes. If you are looking for anything other than a meet cute story with a HEA, then it probably won't be for you.

He Saved My Boy by Amanda Shelley
Narration by Kelsey Navarro and Tim Paige

Another realistic romance from Amanda Shelley, infused with humour and a serendipitous attraction that turns into a real love.

Teagan and Davis happen to meet while on their separately imposed me-cation filled with activities. These two strangers keep bumping into one another and the attraction grows. So following serendipity they go to do things together in a whirlwind day and a steamy sensual night. This book is filled with smiles and laughter as Davis and Teagan go about checking things out on the me-cation list they seem to have in common.

The sensual night comes to an abrupt end while Davis is out getting them breakfast and Teagan gets a distressing call. Davis doesn’t know what happened and thought he shared something with Teagan yet she has disappeared.

Serendipity or fate pulls these two together again. When Davis is called in to assist and possibly operate on a young patient. Who turns out to be none other than Teagan’s son. When Teagan and Davis are again put together this time it’s in a professional setting and they don’t show their emotions from their romantic and sensual day they just had with one another. It’s all a slow burn from there!

Kelsey and Tim are both awesome in this audiobook. They were prefect for the characters they act. Tim’s voice is just the right sweetness for Davis. And he was great showing Davis’ feeling and emotions. Kelsey helps us grasp the fun spirited gal Teagan is, while she takes a chance to have some fun with one sexy stranger and also has the voice to showcase all of Teagan’s fears and doubts being a single mom.

Davis has an amazing family and I can’t wait to hear everyone’s own story about finding love. It was great hearing about Derek and Tessa too!

What a wonderful, heartfelt story!

I received an audio copy of this book, and i truly loved the story. First, i live in Texas so the whole first half of this book was based in my home state.

Both Davis and Teagan are on a me-cation from life in a small town in, i think, east Texas (based on the swamp scenes!). Davis is instantly fascinated with Teagan and they have a short time together that is very meaningful.... until he returns to their B&B after a romantic night together to find her home. Before he can get to worried, he's called into the hospital for an emergency surgery. The surgery just happens to be Teagans 4 year old son.

Thankfully all is well, and they both end up back in their home city of Seattle. The story is super sweet, and a quick read/ listen. The narrators were amazing and really engaged me in the story!

I received an ALC for my honest review!

“We agreed this was a day we do things out of the ordinary and right now… in this moment, all I want is to kiss every square inch of your body.”

I'm so happy and grinning ear to ear! A perfect 5/5 from me.

It's a short read with the single mom who's independent, smart and is trying new things and a charming doctor who competes to become the favourite uncle to his niece and nephews (I'm a total goner).

We've got humour, witty remarks, sexy scenes, cute family scenes, flirting and patience.

I am utterly totally 100% in love with Davis.

Hooked from the first line, everything was natural and just went with the flow. There is no unnecessary drama, no over the top complications, just complete honesty between the two. I loved how Teagan spoke about Jacob with true feelings, no resentment; at this point I knew that Teagan is seriously one of my favourite FMCs.

The sexy times, holy shit🔥

Enjoyed reading this and if could get a chance to read this all over again like it's my first time, I would!! ♡

This is my first book by this author and I was quite impressed with it. And I will definitely check out more books by her in the future.  As I was very interested and intrigued with this book. And wanted to know exactly what was coming up in the book. The characters Teagan and Davis was well developed and I loved how their story unraveled. And in Conner and his cuteness and it was a a entertaining book. And I would recommend it.

I loved the start of the book and the back and forth between Teagan and Davis. The way they met and how they got to know each other drew me into their story. I loved the instant chemistry, relaxed joking, and lighthearted tone of the book and kinda held my breath wondering what the title could mean.
I was expecting a bigger dramatic moment based off the title and kept flipping pages wondering what else was going to happen to Teagan’s boy and how many tears I was going to shed. The story stayed relatively light and normal. I thought the romance was sweet and is a great easy read when you are in the mood for an evening in or have a drive ahead of you.
I would highly recommend the audio version! Tim and Kelsey did a great job narrating the story and infusing the characters with personality and helping me stay engaged.

Sparks fly right from the moment Davis and Teagan meet. What an amazing story and a page turner! Both Davis and Teagan are on me-cations. Unbeknownst to them, they are staying at the same B&B. They first run into each other heading there from a run. Some banter is passed between the two and they decide to get a bite to eat where they are staying. What neither realizes is that they both want to go on a tour so they decide to go together. Their chemistry is unreal and well you’ll to see what happens next. Teagan unexpectedly has to leave the next morning without a word to Davis. When they run into each other again, it’s because of Teagan’s son getting hurt. While Davis is shocked, he now knows why Teagan left. How will Davis react? Can Teagan possibly let Davis in or will she just completely let him go? Of course Davis has to remember that since he is Teagan’s sons doctor, he can’t pursue her at the time. Will this stop him after he’s done treating her son or will they just go their separate ways? Can Teagan possibly let Davis in and tell him the story of her sons father? This book takes you on quite a journey of love, patience, and trying to find your forever.

Audiobook review: This was a new to me author and new to me narrators. I enjoyed the story as well as the performance. Davis, Teagan and Connor's story was hot, sweet and beautiful. This was a no drama story about two people meeting while on a solo vacation and getting to know one another. Davis and Teagan happen to be staying at the same B&B while on their vacations. They start to explore the town and do things that they don't normally have the time to do and just enjoy each other's company and their trip. Until Teagan gets a call that her son has been hurt and she leaves unexpectedly. Davis has no idea where she went or if he will even see her again.

When Davis gets a call about an emergency surgery he must do, he has to leave and isn't sure how to let Teagan know. Imagine their surprise when Davis's emergency just happens to be Teagan's son, Connor. Davis knows that there is something special with Teagan but he can't even think about pursuing anything while Connor is his patient. This gives these two time to talk and learn about each other until Connor is no longer under Davis's care.

I really enjoyed this story and the performances by Tim Paige and Kelsey Navarro. Will definitely be listening to more of them as well as reading more of Amanda Shelley's work.

I guess that I shouldn't judge a book by it's title, but based on the title of this one, I was expecting something a little heavier. Turns out, He Saved My Boy is actually a fairly light little read.

Davis and Teagan meet when they are both on "me-cations" and taking a little break from their day-to-day lives. Their attraction to each other is instant, and they both quickly feel things that they haven't felt in a very long time. After a short whirlwind together, Teagan gets a dreaded call and rushes away, only to be reunited with Davis when her son needs him the most.

The beginning of this story is a fun and flirty, insta-love which I really enjoyed. After tragedy struck, I really did expect for this story to take a much more emotional turn, but it really didn't. Davis and Teagan's relationship progresses in a realistic way throughout the rest of the book, and there was really no unnecessarily added angst or drama. The story flows well, and although I would have liked to have seen a bit more interaction with Davis and Teagan's son, I did enjoy the single parent aspect.

This book starts of with a bang and then gives you a slow burn to the finish, but you'll enjoy the ride along the way.

** I RECEIVED AN ADVANCED READERS COPY IN EXCHANGE FOR MY HONEST REVIEW **

SO many sweet happy fluffy feels!

Davis did not disappoint in making us want to keep him forever and ever as a book boyfriend.

Single parent romance always adds a fun little twist in the form of a sassylittle person with no filter.

While I would have enjoyed to see more interaction between David and Connor, it was still so sweet and amazing.

Teagan and Davis built something up and made is more Explosive as time went on!

I love the world Amanda Shelly has created with the Fallon Family that I may or may not have been reading at my desk at work a time or two!

An enjoyable romance read.

My first read by the author and it did not disappoint. Teagan and Davis meets while on a vacation that they both needed. They didn’t expect the chemistry between them and their attraction to heat up to so much more. I love how their story come to life and a it doesn’t hurt that her son Conner was a cutie that makes them a ready made family.

A well written story that is sexy and has heart and humor. Kismet brought Davis and Teagan together. The instant attraction and heat spark throughout the story and I closed the way that Teagan is portrayed as a strong single mom.everytjing in this story just works and the rooster jokes are icing on the top. So good.

Davis and Teagan end up on solo vacations and wind up running into each other. She takes a chance and asking him on a date and he accepts! They have amazing chemistry and the heat is there right away. They have a very sexy few days together and Teagan has to leave suddenly. What happens next is by chance. I absolutely loved this story. How they take their time and get to know each other while while he's her sons doctor.
The narrators, Kelsey Navarro and Tim Paige did a great job with the characters!

Awesome!
I loved how Davis and Teagan met on their solo me-cations, and how quickly their romance grew. After their night together, Davis woke alone, but he received an emergency call that took him away, so he left a note for Teagan.
I loved Connor and how adorable he was!
