Touches
is a collection of four contemporary gay romance short stories
following the same cast of characters. They can be read in any order,
but to better immerse yourself in the characters’ lives, reading
them in order is advised.
Synopsis
Sometimes a
single touch is enough to change everything. Physical or emotional, a
touch can tilt the world on its axis and shift your entire life. It
can lead to hell, or it can lead to paradise, but things will never
be the same…
A TOUCH OF GLAMOUR
Tudor has big plans
for New York City.
Ditch his homophobic
colleague. See a musical. Definitely check out the go-go boys.
Meeting one Phantom
on Grindr wasn’t in the script.
Tudor gets caught up
in a whirlwind when his favorite musical character steps off the
stage and into his life.
A TOUCH OF
PARADISE
Hauled to work in
Hawaii, Tudor has little time to enjoy the island paradise.
His obnoxious friend
Radu has it much easier, using his free time to set Tudor up,
dangling a willing Hawaiian beauty in front of him.
Having been burned
by long-distance relationships before, Tudor stubbornly resists
Kahoni’s advances.
But can Tudor be
worn down enough to enjoy a touch of paradise?
A TOUCH OF
KINK
A moody and angry
Tudor follows his friend, Radu, to the airport to pick up a
client.
Despite Radu’s
efforts, he’s still sulking over his boyfriend, Kahoni, not being
able to fly over for his birthday.
But the airport only
opens up the door to a stream of steamy surprises for Tudor. Will his
mood improve?
A TOUCH OF
GAY
Radu has always
joked with Tudor about his friend’s gay rubbing off on him. Neither
of them has taken that joke seriously until Radu’s meltdown and
crazy confession: Radu thinks he might be gay.
Despite Radu’s
insistence that Tudor’s gayness has helped him figure out his own,
there’s more to that story of discovery. Charismatic, sexy, and all
around amazing Marius, the man Radu has been crushing on for months,
pushed the loud-mouth, offensive Radu into exploring who he truly
is.
Figuring out he
wasn’t all that straight is the easy part. Getting enough courage
to talk to Marius, that’s a whole different challenge, as Radu
seems to turn into a stuttering idiot around Marius. Will Radu learn
to be confident enough to pursue Marius? Or will Marius act faster
and challenge the confused Radu too soon?
Review: 5
stars
Touches is a
collection of 4 quick, easy short stories centered around the
friendship between Tudor and Radu. The first story, A Touch of
Glamour, is a bit heavier than the rest of them, and marks the
beginning of the friendship between them. While the collection
revolves around Tudor, Radu is the real star. He starts off as a jerk
and a homophobe, but he grows into a true friend. By the third story,
I got to love him, and on the forth..let’s just say, this is my
favorite story of them all.
Touches is a
sweet collection that made me long for a vacation with sandy beaches,
blue water and Mai-tais. Perfect read for the incoming summer.
