Rule #15 Friends First
(2025)(Book 15 in the Rules For Dating A Single Mom series)
A Story by Caryl McAdoo
‘The wolf will live with the lamb... and a little child will lead them.’ —Isaiah 11:6
Dusty Culpepper has traded in his wild days for a Stetson full of faith and a longing he never expected—he wants to be a dad. A daughter, to be exact, just like the sweet toddler who stole his heart at church. So what’s a reformed cowboy to do? Find himself a wife.
With a little nudge from his cousin Susan—and the enthusiastic meddling of her teenage matchmakers—Dusty is introduced to Jenning O’Neal, a no-nonsense widow and top-tier real estate agent who’s kept love at arm’s length for twelve years. His charm, sincerity, and surprising depth begin to crack Jenning’s carefully constructed armor. He makes it through her first three dating rules without a hitch. But Rule #5? That one’s tricky. And it might just be the dealbreaker she never saw coming. Now, she'll have to decide if she's willing to rewrite her rules—or risk missing out on the happily ever after she stopped believing in.
Love is patient, love is kind, and love embraces families of all kinds! In vibrant communities across the country, single moms are about to discover that love doesn't follow a rulebook.
As these strong, independent women juggle the demands of parenthood and their own desires, fate introduces them to partners who are ready to embrace not just one heart, but an entire family.
Each story in 'Rules For Dating A Single Mom' celebrates the unique journey of finding love as a single parent, proving that sometimes the most beautiful love stories include sticky hands and bedtime stories.
This sweet series will be filled with touching family moments, heartwarming connections, and the magic of finding love when you least expect it. Enjoy them all!
