About this ebook

"Powerful chemistry that makes this a winning page-turner."—Publishers Weekly for Must Love Babies

Where do you go when you're at the end of your rope?

Former Marine Tucker Wylder wants nothing more than to work with his brothers in their vintage car restoration business and be left alone with his nightmares and regrets. The last thing he needs is to take on someone else's troubles...

Then Elisa Danvers and her young daughter arrive in Misty Bottoms, Georgia. Elisa has reached the end of the line—flat broke, engine trouble, sick in body and spirit. Tucker steps up to the rescue and finds himself reluctantly taking care of a feisty preschooler and her independent mother, who doesn't seem to want his help. And Tucker isn't sure he's ready for the way precocious little Daisy and headstrong, beautiful Elisa herself capture first his bachelor household and finally his carefully guarded heart...

Ratings and reviews

4 Star review of I’ve Got You Babe (Bachelors & Babies #2) by Lynnette Austin Sometimes all it takes is a word or a phrase jumping out from a blurb to reel you in. For me it was Misty Bottoms, Georgia. This was a sweet romance between former Marine Tucker Wylder wants and single mum Elisa Danvers and her young daughter Daisy. Elisa is at the end of her rope with no-one she can depend on, until Tucker takes them under his protection. The characters were likeable and easy to relate too and Daisy just about melted my heart on occasion. There were times that I thought my face would crack from the smiles and then there were times that it made me tear up. The relationship that built between Tucker and Daisy was so heartwarming and made me smile. A heart warming story that will surely tug on your emotions. Will Tucker and Elisa be able to put their pasts behind them and take a chance at happiness or are these lost and damaged souls destined to be alone forever? I received a copy of this book through the publisher via Netgalley.

The story of Tucker Wylder and Elisa Danvers is one that will touch your hearts. Tucker, a former Marine, owns, with his brothers, a car and motorcycle restoration garage. He’s come back from the war a changed man. One that has isolated himself from everyone and is full of survivor’s guilt. Elisa, single mom to adorable Daisy, is down on her luck. When her car breaks down in front of the garage and ends up fainting in front of Tucker, they didn’t realize that their lives would change forever. The plot is engaging and the characters perfect in their imperfections. At times you will laugh out loud, at others cry for the characters. Life has thrown them both curveballs in life and neither is sure how to survive their past. A past that has greatly influenced their present. When fate brings forward the unexpected, they will either let their budding love be shattered, or become stronger for it. A wonderful story that you will remember for a very long time. Can’t wait to see what else this talented author has in store for us. I was entrusted a copy of this book by Netgalley and Sourcebooks Casablanca. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

Great book
