On Dry Land, the third of the Siren's Point series, will be here October 7th! 🌈📚 ARC Applications Open | See form linked in my bio for full details! Please be sure to read all information before applying, and check CWs on my website | jjmulder.com #mmromance #queerbooksky #booksky

BLURB:

Dryden Roy’s desire for love died years ago when his marriage ended. He lost things he never thought he’d have to part with, and discovered aspects of himself that he hadn’t known were there. Above all, he learned a hard lesson about trust.

Spencer Davis likes to walk. In fact, it’s his job. A vlogger who lives on the road, carrying everything he owns on his back, he strolls into Siren’s Point looking for footage of lobster boats. What he finds instead is a lobsterman.

Dryden and Spencer are different in too many ways to number. In only one thing can they relate— their mistrust of each other and everyone else.

And yet, a chance meeting in the dark leads to time spent together in the light. Circumstance has them occupying the same space, and it’s only a matter of time before a bond begins to form over knots, lobstering, and the water. But trust is a hard thing to earn, and an even harder thing to give away.

As Dryden and Spencer become close, they discover that some scars are physical, some emotional, but all can heal.

🌈📚 Some moments linger. These are some of those moments in From Coast to Coast (Offsides, Book 4), written by @jjmulder.bsky.social , narrated by Liam DiCosimo and Iggy Toma. books2read.com/FCTC #mmromance #gayromance #queerromance #booksky #romancelandia #readqueerallyear #lgbtbooks

Some Moments Linger.

From Coast to Coast by J.J. Mulder.

Photo: It's of a beautiful wave, in the ocean, with a man surfing it. The man is on the left of the photo, and the waves fall off toward the right of the photo. There is not anyone else in the shot. It's a bright, sunny, clear day and the water is as calm as calm can be for a wave in the ocean.

How it started.

Photo: Close up of a divorce decree, torn in two, lying on a table with two rings on top. There are no people in the photo and you can't see anything beyond a hint of the desk underneath the photo through the torn sections of both sides.

How it ends. (If you know, you know).

Photo: The shot is outside, looking up at palm tree. You can see the very top of buildings and a few lampposts. The sun is washing out the photo a little bit. There are no people in the photo. The location is California.

Book Quote: "Putting a hand on his shoulder, I lean in and press my lips to the soft hair on his temple. It’s a quick, barely there sort of kiss, but enough of one that I hear Oliver’s breath catch. He sways toward me slightly, cheeks pink. I wait, pinching my lips together when the silence starts becoming loud. It would appear Oliver has a reset button."

🌊❄️ Facing leeward by JJ Mulder

ARC review

5 ⭐ (honestly 6)

. @authorjjmulder

In the past few days I realized one funny thing... Everytime I read a book by JJ Mulder I think "Oh, that's the one. THIS is my favorite book." but then I read a new book and I find myself deeply in love with that book and I'm like... Maybe all of JJ Mulder books are my favorite, because I can't figure something out about the way my heart beat and my chest felt so warm and my anxiety is in standby mode when I have between my hands (or in my ears via audiobook) one book written by the author.

Anyway, let's talk about "Facing leeward" now and let me just say... I LOVED IT.

I enjoyed Oliver and Nils characters in the first book of the serie, so I was really looking forward this book. They are so precious and I loved how they fits perfectly together despite the differences between them. The way they understand and take care of each other, in different ways but all full of caring and love, made my heart melt.

I loved them so so much and I'm so grateful for the opportunity of read this book as an ARC

Blurb:

Winters are slow in Siren’s Point. For Nils Lee, that means solitude, tending his chickens, and minding his own. It means days of silence. For Oliver Martin, the season brings a different, unique set of challenges: home repairs and loneliness.

Neighbors and coworkers, Nils and Oliver are together more often than they are apart. It’s not enough, though, and both of them wish for more. More time, more companionship, more intimacy. Unsure of how to ask for it, they simply move forward as they are, ignoring the attraction growing between them.

Oliver knows he can be a lot. His personality, his energy, his inability to talk, or think, in a straight line. All of it, too much for most people, and certainly too much for quiet, calm Nils.

Nils has spent his life choosing silence. A partner was never in his future. And, until Oliver moved in next door, he might have said that life was perfect for him. Now, he wishes the short distance between their houses didn’t exist and Oliver was always near enough for Nils to hear him singing.

When a massive winter storm hits Siren’s Point, the choice about whether to close that last bit of space is made for them. With snow falling outside and a fire burning, Oliver and Nils find out there is more than one way to stay warm during winter.
