Ace has been chasing the light for as long as he can remember, trying to stay one step ahead of the looming darkness. With the walls around him starting to close in, he feels more lost than ever. All of his energy is spent working and caring for his friends. There's nothing left for him.
Until he starts spending time with a little sunshine of his own, igniting a spark of life inside him that's never been there before.
Matt has been drowning in a world full of words he can't say, trapped inside a body that no longer feels real. He can never catch his breath, his head is a mess, and all he ever wants to do is hide. It's the only kind of existence that feels fitting for the ghost he has become. There's nothing left of him.
Until he starts spending time with a man and his music, finding safety in the flow of music and the sound of his voice, finally feeling like he can breathe.
Beautiful things are what make life worth living, Ace would say, and his and Matt's time together is starting to feel like the most beautiful thing of all.
** IMPORTANT NOTE:The Sound of Him is only Part 1 of what will be a two-part story for Matt and Ace.
I promised myself I would never write a duet again after Maison/Nolan/Hunter, I really did, but Matt and Ace are deeply affected by the early days of post-operation, yet nowhere near ready to be romantically involved. In order to do their stories justice, I had to make this the slowest slow burn I’ve ever written - which means having to break this into two parts because Amazon has a page limit for their paperbacks. The second part is in the last stretch of being written and will be coming out soon, but DON’T WORRY, this book does not end on a cliffhanger, instead ending at a happy moment between Matt and Ace that offers the perfect springboard for the romance part of their love story.
Part 2 of Matt and Ace’s story, The Song of Us, will be released fall 2026.
Genre: Gay Romance
