Donut Be Easy

A Standalone Romantic Comedy

By: Kristen Hope Mazzola

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestseller Kristen Hope Mazzola serves up a sweet, steamy, laugh-out-loud romantic comedy about fresh starts, flaky exes, and the pastry chef who turns everything around.

Jack Robertson’s life just imploded.

✔️ His wife cheated.
✔️ His marriage is over.
✔️ His job makes him miserable.
✔️ And modern dating? A complete disaster.

Forty, newly divorced, and painfully out of practice, Jack is thrown into the chaos of swipe culture, awkward first dates, and women who want wedding rings before appetizers.

Then one night at a bar changes everything.

Enter Kelly O’Donnell—bold, brilliant, and drop-dead gorgeous.
A bakery owner with zero patience for games and zero shame about what she wants.

Their chemistry? Instant.
Their night together? Unforgettable.
Their goodbye? Nonexistent.

Jack thinks he’s been ghosted.

Until he walks into culinary school…
And finds Kelly standing at the front of the classroom.

As his teacher.

Now the woman he can’t stop thinking about is officially off-limits.

And she’s not about to make things easy.

Kelly isn’t looking for commitment.
Jack isn’t sure he’s ready to trust again.
But between sizzling tension, disastrous donuts, and undeniable feelings, walking away might be impossible.

Because sometimes the sweetest love stories start with one reckless night…
And turn into forever.
