A sweet and second chance romance is what you are going to get with C.K. Darling's Buttercream and Second Beginnings, the first novella in the Sweetheart Scones & Stories series. This is my first foray into Darling's work and I found there to be a calm gentleness to the story telling, which makes this quick read easy to enjoy. Darling's writing is clear and focused, the pacing is fairly quick as the timeline moves swiftly, and the characters are charming and compassionate. This novella has a little bit of spice and some already established chemistry that we are told about, which ultimately left me yearning for a bit more of the relationship building between the hero and heroine.
Overall, I found this to be a sweet treat, with likable tropes and lovely characters. This was definitely a lovely introduction to Darling and I would highly encourage anyone interested in Darling's works or novella's to check this out.
Thank you to Grey's Promotions for an eARC, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
