REVIEW:
I love when an author puts a short story or novella in a Multi-Author anthology and then decides there’s way more to the story. Jamie’s story grew and flourished with these additions and now we have…the rest of the story!
I am thrilled to be back in the Little Universe where daddies find their little and do everything in their power to protect, pamper and spoil their sweet boys! 💕
Timothy is a born Daddy through and through. But his lucky with finding a lifetime boy of his own hasn’t been good. When talking with Daddies Mitchell and Jensen, after finally returning to Cordes, he spots the sweet little playing with Henry. He is totally intrigued and asks Jamie to dinner. But can a boy who has always been told he’s too much and a Daddy that has had a long, dry spell make a relationship work.
I loved that Timothy was a veterinarian and Jamie is all about animals. I was beyond thrilled that this expanded story gave us a wonderful place for Jamie to work after his job ended so suddenly. The shelter was the perfect place for Jamie to not only work but give those homeless animals the snuggles they need while waiting to be placed in their forever home.
I was so excited to get to reconnect with Henry and his two daddies. A special bonus was getting a moment with Chase, lead singer of Embrace the Fear. I loved his “little” journey and this reminded me how he and his Daddy met.
I know in the shorter version of this story that I was hoping to see a wedding event in Disneyland sometime in the not too distant future since it’s one of my most wonderful places on earth. But the wedding there was Chase’s not Jamie’s in the end. Although all three of those boys were there. I have really enjoyed this found family that supports each other completely! I hope we continue to get more books in this unique and loving universe TL has created. Henry, Jamie and Chase are always so welcoming to new Littles in their playgroup.
