    I've been in a book slump lately but I saw on social media that this author was releasing Book 1 in the series so of course, I had to read this book since it was 0.5 and served as a prequel in the same universe. ABoth men were so adorable, sweet, and romantic together. I loved how caring Dev was with Samuel and his nickname of silver kitten :)

    Ok this was so cute and sweet. Gentle giant Samuel gets totally swept of his feet by a younger and bolder Devon. Devon sees something he very much wants and isn’t afraid to go after it. Samuel might be older but he is definitely the sexy sweet kitten the other man thinks he is. He just needs someone right to help him find his confidence. What a great little novella!

    A sweet novella about opposites attracted to one another. Devon is smallish in stature but not in attitude. Samuel is a large man but not in his manner or the way he thinks of himself. They meet in a coffee shop and with Devon in the lead there is no looking back!

    This is a great start to a new series! A few editing errors, but not terrible enough to stop me from enjoying the story.
    Devon was so kind and dominant, while Samuel was shy, timid, and sweet. I loved the thrift store shopping and the interactions between the two MCs.

    Sweet and quick prequel novella. Devon and Samuel meet at a cafe and there is an instant connection followed the next day by one heck of a first date. Great start to the series!

    A cute instalust/love novella that doesn’t feel rushed. I enjoyed the characters and how the author managed to flesh them out so quickly.

    3.5 rounded to 4 just because it was so dang cute. I loved Devon. He knew exactly what’s Samuel seemed to need. I would definitely read more about these two. Samuel seems to have some holdover issues from a previous relationship and the daddy angle could be explored.

    I loved the absolute boldness of Devon. That man has no shame and it was so endearing. This novella was definitely worth the time to read.
