Gordon's Lost Mittens

Found by Daddy #7

by Della Cain, Kaytea Kat

I’m a good boy. I follow all the rules…until one day I don’t.

As a little, I learned early on that there was an unspoken rule that daddies like to pick their boy, not the other way around. I’ve been following that rule ever since. Does it work for me? Sort of. I never have to play alone. But also…I never have a daddy of my own, either.

When I see Parker at the Little Day of Fun, I’m instantly drawn to him. I pull out every trick I’ve learned over the years to catch his attention. They all fail. It’s like I’m invisible. Screw it. I’m breaking the rules. I’d never forgive myself if I didn’t.

Gordon’s Lost Mitten is a sweet age play romance featuring a little who “loses,” sort of, kind of…fine, completely on purpose, his mitten, the daddy who “finds” it, a day of snowy fun, snuggles, cuddles, stuffies, footie jams, a memorable day at Chained, some old friends, true love, and a guaranteed happy ever after. If you like your romances on the Hallmark side but a bit kinkier, check out Gordon’s Lost Mitten by USA Today Bestselling author Della Cain and her bestie and frequent partner in crime, Kaytea Kat.

Gordon was a very lonely "little" with a very stressful job. He did have "friends", but they were all stuffed with fiber filling. When Gordon attended a "little's" Christmas event at the club Chained...he spotted Parker who was the guest of a friend. Gordon just knew that Parker was a "Daddy" but thought that Parker looked as lonely as he was. He didn't have a "little" with him and it was a "little" party. When it was time for everyone to go outside to build snowmen, Gordon decided that he was going to somehow get Parker's attention. He knew that Parker was going to have to put his boots on to go out, so he conveniently dropped one of his mittens into Parkers boot. Parker did indeed notice Gordon when he returned the "little's" mitten and they spent a delightful time building the biggest, tallest, "bestest" snowman ever! Things go very well as would be expected. I liked these "Daddy"/"little" stories. They are rather repetitive in theme, but they always have such happy endings and make you feel good. The world today can sure use more "happy" and "feel good".

I enjoy the happy-sweet (non-bratty) stories ❤️ Loved the natural gentleman characteristics of Parker, with the appreciative yet balanced Gordon/Gordie
🧸 ⛄️is a cute lil’series, I’m enjoying them💋❄️

🐞 I remember about “LadyBug Wishes” - catch a LadyBug & make a wish & blow it free as it’ll carry your wishes to the heavens OR - if a ladybug lands on you, it brings a wish that’s soon to come true/good luck!! 🐞there was something about counting the spots, but don’t remember why😅😉

not my favorite of these stories. I expect formulation from this series but this went a little beyond that. very mad lib storytelling to me. I felt like i'd read it all before but with different character names and place names. Gordie wasn't little for much of the story, which is fine, but even little he was bossy.

[Heather MMRomanceReviewed]

This book is exactly what I expected when I picked it up... a whole heap of sweet, a dash of spicy and a HEA for a little who needed to find the right Daddy.

I love that Gordon goes for what he wants and Walker supports him in actually listening and accepting what Gordon actually wants and needs.

If you're looking for a sweet and spicy book with a bit of ABDL, and a lot of cuddling, add this one to your TBR.

There are no set rules when it comes to love...Gordon took a chance and it paid off with a wonderful daddy in Parker. Totally enjoyed this romance. Eventhough they instantly connected, there were some hurdles along their path towards love. Parker was a very attentive and caring daddy and Gordie was a sweet and adorable boy. This novella was not too angsty...sweet heat along with some kinky play...an all around enjoyable read. Loving this series...can't wait to read more.

Carefully Placed Mitten

This was a cute and quick read where a boy takes a little initiative to get his forever Daddy to notice him.

I don't know why I continue with this series. I know that the grammatical errors are going to be plentiful, and I know that the story will be cookie-cutter... but, I also know that the characters are going to be so darn adorable and I just can't help myself where "littles" are concerned! 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️🥰🌈

Sadly, this story didn't present any substance that hasn't been done by these authors in the past. And I realized partway through that in many instances, they were missing opportunities to invite readers to be present when the characters made up or when they had a discussion about an important issue.

There was a lot of on-page time talking about what happened and what would happen but then when it was time to resolve whatever the issue was, we readers were bounced to the next day. One example was the mess the couple made of their first Daddy/little day at Parker's house. First of all, the explanation as to why it failed was lame as was Parker's behavior by allowing the day to go sideways at his house. Totally not Daddy behavior, but even overlooking that, both characters had scenes the next day in which they bemoaned the mess they made. Both characters promised to increase communication, and Gordon was going to apologize but suddenly they were back together and we're told they resolved the issue.

IMO, the authors missed many opportunities to make the story more interesting, infuse more dialogue, more together time, more Daddy-little time, just more.

I'm not sure I'll continue if there's more to the series. It's possible the author team has reached the limit of their imagination. If so, that's too bad. But it's better not to push out a sequel than to push out one that's short and missing so much substance.

Gordon really wants to have a daddy but has had no luck finding a Daddy beyond just one scene. He feels like he has learned an important lesson. He believes that Daddies are unhappy when boys make their interest known. He is determined to let the Daddies do the chasing from now on. Then one special night at the club, he sees a Daddy that he is very interested in. When the Daddy doesn't seem to notice him, he decides to take a chance. He "accidentally" drops his mitten on the Daddy's boot hoping to get his attention.

Parker is a Daddy who has grown discouraged. He has been unlucky in his search for a Little of his own. Every boy Parker has approached have only been interested in a one- time scene. He has stopped going to Daddy/ Little events but then his friend talks him into going to a event at their club. At the club, he sees Gordon but doesn't approach him fearing that he would be like all the other boys. Then Gordon makes his interest known by dropping his mitten on Parker's boots. Parker is ready to take a chance on Gordon.

This is book 7 of the Found by Daddy series. Each book is a standalone read. This is the story of Gordon and Parker. Gordon is a little that can't seem to find his forever daddy. Daddies are willing to do a scene with him but none that want to keep him or date him. They meet at their mutual club Chained for A Little Day of Fun. Parker is a daddy and goes to the club with a friend. Not expecting to interact with anyone but Gordon catches his eye. Parker has noticed Gordon but is disappointed that he hasn't approached him. So Gordon takes the initiative thinking that his chances for long term happiness are gone. But then Parker explains what kind of daddy he is. Suddenly things look up. This is their story. I loved how the two of them fit together. And that they had normal relationship problems to work through. This book is well written and easy to read. I look forward to the next one in this series.

Part of the Found By Daddy series each can be read as a standalone with a boy in need of a loving daddy. Gordon is a little who wants a forever daddy but all he seems to do is scene with different daddies, but he wants his own and the moment he sees Parker at an event he knows he want to see if they can work so he leaves one of his little mittens on top of his book. Parker isn’t sure if he is a daddy just yet but he is talked into attending a little event with a friend and when he meets Gordon there is an instant attraction between the two of them but when they go on a date it doesn’t go as planned yet the connection is there so Parker seeks advice to make what is brewing between them work but is it enough have little Gordon found his forever daddy, does Parker believe in his abilities as a daddy to make it work for the two of them, and are they headed for the happiness they see in their friends?

Gordon struggles to find a daddy of his own who wants more than just sharing a scene, but an actual relationship. Parker no longer has a little of his own and isn’t really looking when he agrees to go a littles’ event with a friend. Gordon sees Parker and hoping to attract his attention leaves one of his new mittens atop Parker’s book – so sweet. The two connect at the event and then on a big date together – lovely and romantic. But then the try daddy and little and it doesn’t flow ☹. Luckily Parker and Gordon want to figure out how to make their relationship work – they seek advice and open up with one another, let’s hear it for communication! The two are really lovely together and are just what the other needs – a loving partner. Sweet DDlb MM romance with some angst and two people working together on their relationship both as bigs and as daddy/little.

[Likes2Explore · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is an oh so sweet, enjoyable and easy to read MM Romance. I couldn’t help but fall in love with Parker and Gordon. They figured out quickly after a few bumps in the relationship that being open and honest with each other was the key to happiness.

The blurb did a wonderful job of setting the scene and pulling me in. I was hooked from start all the way to the HEA on this one and didn’t put it down until I was finished. We are given a wonderful community and a great cast of characters.

This was my first story from this author and from this series and I look forward to reading more!

Gordon knows the rules - a Daddy picks their boy and not vice versa. But it doesn't work for him as all he has had is someone for a scene and then they move on. He wants a Daddy of his own. When he sees Parker at the Little Day of Fun he is instantly drawn to him. He pulls out every trick to catch his attention but they all fail. So he decides to break the rules. So Gordon "loses" one of his mittens so a certain Daddy can find it.

This was a sweet story about a little who saw who he wanted and went for it. I liked their joy at having fun together and the way that their relationship grew via having dates before Daddy/little time even though Parker was always the caregiver. Easy to read, feel and understand. This as an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like DDLB dynamic.

[Shawna · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved Gordon's Lost Mittens Book 7 of Found by Daddy. Gordon was ready for a real Daddy. It no one at Chained ever wanted more than a night of play. Parker let his little go because he knew he wasn’t right for him but now he was missing having a little. He didn’t want I meet anyone,
But meeting Gordon will change everything. Unfortunately, despite how well they get along there may be a huge problem. Something that could ruin their future together. I loved the storyline and the characters. Parker is a good Daddy, he just needs to be able to show Gordie. I would definitely recommend this book and the series.

This is a short, sweet, enjoyable story with likeable characters.
Gordon is a little who wants a daddy, but only gets offers to play.
Parker is a daddy who prefers a relationship, but has only been getting offers to play.
Both are drawn to one another during a little event. It takes a little trickery from Gordon to get them talking and spending time together - which turns out better than either thought.
Their journey has a couple hiccups along the way, but once they begin to openly communicate their own wants and needs, it is smooth sailing on to a super sweet HEA.

[Belinda Zamora]

Gordon has never had a Daddy of his own.
He gets to play and have fun with them but they never want to keep him.
Well, stuff that he decides.
He's going to get a Daddy of his own, even if he has to slightly bend the rules.
Parker is a Daddy who says he's not looking for a boy and maybe never again.
His last boy broke his heart and he feels like a failure.
When these two meet sparks fly.
Unfortunately they both have some work to do, both individually and as a couple.
Lack of communication and miscommunication leads to some problems but thankfully they're able to work things out.
There's plenty of steamy moments along with lots of fun and sweet moments as well.

[Julie · Rating 5 out of 5]

I can't say enough good things about Della Cain's books. The dynamics between the characters are wonderful and readers can get a rather thorough education in DDlg by reading (though not comprehensive - of course). Parker & Gordon each have their own personal history and issues. Experiencing them work together to figure out the next steps was enjoyable. The missteps, though not as fun, were still engaging, as they were a significant part of the process. It is always interesting to see how Cain will weave two lives together. This case was no different.

I absolutely loved reading this story about Gordon and how he was desperate for a Daddy. When he went to chained to an event for Littles, he saw Parker in a distance and wanted him as his daddy. These two characters were really cute and enjoyed reading how they knew what they wanted in a partner and weren’t afraid to talk about it with each other, and eventually growing close enough that they wanted to share their lives together and go onto to have a happily ever after.

Relax! Gordon, learned the lesson/rule that he was not suppose to pick his Daddy. His Daddy, would choose hiim if he liked him. While attending an event, he saw Parker, who he presumed was a Daddy across the room. Parker, was lonely and he wanted his forever Boy. Gordon, schemed to leave a mitten, so the Daddy would approach him. They spent time together, but learned a few lessons that impacted their relationship. Nicely done learning about adjusting to new relationships and what people what. Nicely done. I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Gordon and Parker were so adorable together! Both were looking for something long term and didn’t think they’d get it. They clicked right from the start and it was sweet to watch. The mitten was a cute touch but I think Gordon being brave was what started it all. Very sweet and enjoyable read! I hope Julian finds his HEA!.

This was a sweet book. I really enjoyed Parker and Gordon together. I really like that book shows what happen when you jump in without communicating your needs with a partner. I think Parker and Gordon become closer due to their "failed date" as it made them more aware of each other. I really enjoyed this book and thought it was a great addition to this series.

A new Daddy for a deserving little boy, Parker finds Gordon and then the fun begins. It’s a good read with lots of excitement especially for Gordon. It takes awhile to get all of the kinks worked out of their new relationship but they work together to have a HEA in the end. An enjoyable read full of humor and love. Definitely worth reading.

Gordon and Parker

Gordon was lonely. He went to the club every chance he got and wanted to find a Daddy. That was easier said than done. He played a bit but nothing worked out for him.
Parker had never been a Daddy but he too was lonely and Parker wanted a baby boy.
Gordon spotted Parker and knew he wanted him but how to get him interested.
This is their story and journey.
This is so good.
Enjoy

Wowser, this was one heart felt story of Gordon wanting a Daddy but everyone he was with he had no connection with them, so he went to Chained for a Little Day that was when he noticed a person that caught his eye and that was when he met Parker. Parker is a Daddy he is lonely and would love to find his own little.

[Cindy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Gordon was a Little who hadn't had a Daddy in a long time. When he meets Parker, he is brave and asks him to play even though a Daddy is supposed to ask. Apparently, Parker likes that quality in a Little. After a great "Big" date and a bumpy playdate, these two settled into a smooth relationship with little angst. I wished there was a little more charisma in this book between the two. I received a copy of this book through Booksprout and this is my voluntary opinion.

'I waited until he stepped away with his friend and walked past the boots, accidentally on purpose dropping my mitten on one.'

I've been loving the Found By Daddy series and have enjoyed seeing what each Little protagonist values and has lost for Daddy to find. I liked that in this story, Gordon purposely "dropped" his mitten for the Daddy he'd been eyeing to find as he hadn't noticed or approached him. Parker and Gordon were cute together. Looking forward to more in this series. 4 stars.

[Akasha721 · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great book and wonderful MC's. Gordon is shy but determined to catch Parker if it's the last thing he does. The two hit it off great because what they both have been looking for is right in front of them. A few dates and only one mishap brings them to the love they both need!.
