This was cute and I was glad to see an extended story from when I read Accidental Baker a while ago. Donnie is such a sweetheart and wants nothing more than to help those around him and make them happy but at times it’s at a detriment to himself. Will sees this in Donnie and tries to help him manage that but hurts Donnie in the process. I liked these guys though something about all the interactions in the story left my head reeling. Though I’m still not entirely sure how everything worked out in the end but it did.
I received an ARC of this book and am giving an honest review.

This story begins where The Accidental Baker left, and boy, I'm happy we get to revisit all the couples from that book with a new series!
Donnie is simply the kind of person that others can and will take advantage off, so seeing him finding his way to love and happiness with Will is fulfiling. And Will is just the kind of person whom Donnie needs: someone who will bring him back to earth when he needs it, who will give him calm and strength.
And both, the conflict and its resolution are realistic which is always a big thing for me. So, yes, another recommended read... but it's Clare London, so I'm sure this won't come as a surprise :P

Just as cute as Accidental Baker, which is where Clare London first introduced Donnie and Will.
This is a romance about two ordinary blokes, one a little bit older than the other but both just fumbling their way through life and trying to make the best of things.
Donnie is such a sweetheart, he's the one everybody turns too but he finds it hard to put his own needs first.
Will is older and has his Veterinary practice, but he's a bit lacking in confidence both in bed and in relationships overall.
There's some stumbles on the way to the happy ending but this is really just a lovely feel good romance.
