Told from the alternating perspectives of Garrett and Devlyn, All My Life is the story of single father Garrett, his sweet daughter Mia, and the childhood friend that's been there for it all. Garrett is used to being a single dad, he doesn't need any woman to take care of him, but his daughter sees things differently and sets out on a hilarious mission to find her father the perfect partner. Watching from the sidelines is best friend and local tutu wearing, biscuit baker Devlyn. Seeing Garrett dating stirs up long buried feelings and she begins to fight for her place in his life, hoping he'll see she's been there all along.
"My arms coil perfectly around her waist, and her head lays right over my heart. SOmething stirs in me. It's like waking up after a long sleep-a little confusing."
Emotional and realistic, All My Life is a stunning friends-to-lovers single dad romance. It's relatable, with the storyline playing out in a very realistic way. The full length novel explores Garrett and Devlyn's relationship with well placed flashbacks, giving readers the opportunity to see just how much Devlyn has been there and how amazing Garrett has been at raising Mia on his own. I loved the small town atmosphere of the story, even when it wasn't spinning Garrett's young fatherhood in a positive light. The hilarious set-my-dad-up storyline allows us to get to know Garrett as a father, as the local bachelor, and as the town's architect of sorts. It became impossible not to fall for him just as Devlyn had, though in her young wisdom she saw how amazing he was even before others did. The bond Garrett has with Mia, with Devlyn, and them with one another, is the greatest part of the novel. I really felt like they were a family, even though Devlyn is just viewed as the best friend. It's the journey to realizing she's the girl he wants, the girl that's been there all along, that matters.
"I've stayed. All these years, I've loved them and stayed."
If you're looking for a heaping dose of sweetness, Prescott Lane's newest All My Life is the book to read. It's a lighthearted romance with a bit of emotional turmoil mixed in. Plus, there's some good twists that I didn't see coming that keep the sweet, classic story exciting. I really connected with All My Life and highly recommend it to my fellow romance lovers! Prescott Lane is a go-to author for me and this story is a hit in my book.
