I can’t lie, this book is sometimes sad but NOT depressing.

Kingsley, our MC, meets a guy in a club and goes home with him for a quick hookup but little does he know that his hookup’s bf, Morgan, who catches them sleeping on the couch in his own house and who has cancer will be the love of his life. If you have triggers from reading about cancer healing process you might want to skip this review and this book all together. We have caring and devotion and we have goodness. We don’t have older MCs here but we do have kindness. I know one usually reads to evade real life and to immerse themselves in a fictional fairytale love story with cocky strong alpha males who sweep their lovers off their feet after a tense hate-love foreplay 🤣 I used to love those stories too in my younger and less cynical age lol but now I just want kindness and a realistic kind of romance. They’re kind and sweet, calm and supportive,they’re a rock for their partners and one can always count on them. That’s why I adored John in “The rebuilding year”, Mallory from “Arrows through Archer” or Clay from “Honeymoon for one”. That’s why my favorite characters are the more mature ones-not because of their age but because they’re kinder, they’re dependable and wise and supportive for having experienced more in life and they’re less prone to hysterics and childish tantrums. Devotion, caring and loyalty but most of all kindness. You know what romance is to me ? What I look for in my romance books? Kindness.
