Hi precious peeps. :)
As I am so close to publishing Kai's Healing Smiles - on September 13 - I wanted to share with you the kind of books I have read that are similar to my book.
Not on purpose, of course, but it does have certain elements of each, and I think they call this comparable titles, so this is the list of Kai's.
I give each of these books 5 stars, as I loved reading them and always re-read them.
This is one of the most adorable low angst mm romance I have ever read. It's about Brooks, the middle aged grump, and this cute sunshiny barista Noah, who is actually a pretty good singer. They're so different from each other and there's a bit of a role reversal at one point, and it's so funny and wonderful how Noah doesn't care how old Brooks is or whether his back is bad or not. They're such a cute couple.
Whenever I want feel-good vibes, I read this story. It makes me smile.
This is the story of Theo, who is struggling after his partner Ben's death, and he's trying to move on, getting back to dating, but it's really difficult because he keeps remembering everything about their relationship. It's such an authentic, gut-wrenching story.
I also love who Theo ends up with at the end because there's an online relationship kind of thing and an age gap, which I always love. There's also something about his love interest, which will be revealed that is also heart-wrenching. Basically, both of these men have been through the ringer and they help each other heal and learn to love again.
Unlike the first book I mentioned, this is heavier, but just as wonderful and satisfying.
Like any other book written by Roe Horvat, I LOVED this one.
It's about an author of smut books and a young man he met on vacation. They become friends and kind of mentor and mentee, from a distance, until Christian finally decides to move for college, and they finally live in the same place.
What follows is a LOT of angst on Alex's (the MC) part because he sees Christian as this young, untouchable, angelic creature, who he cannot touch, ever.
I especially loved the end and what Alex wrote and omg, so amazing. I have read this book many times, since it's such an amazing well-written story.
Their love story is just adorable!!!
Just like the books before, in this one you will find:
-- a sweet and sad hurt/comfort story
-- a love story where there is an age difference
-- a grieving man and a sunshine who heals his heart
Silas is mourning the loss of his wife and Kai heals his heart, one smile at a time. Will the sunshiny, awkward barista manage to make the sad, gloomy man smile? Buy it and find out. :)
