Her book, My Summer of Wes, was the very first MM romance book I ever read. It was published about 3 months after I turned 18, and holds a special place in my heart. It told the story of two young guys who were very capable of falling in Love (with a capital L) and it gave both Brad and I a sense that if Mal and Wes could tackle the challenges, then maybe we could, too.Missy is celebrating the anniversary of her book's publication, and we'd like to add our Happy Anniversary to her two boys, Mal and Wes!
Here's the post where I talked about her book in a little more detail: Click here.
And you can head over to Missy's blog to read the blurb and an excerpt: Blurb & Excerpt.
She also wrote a post on her blog celebrating the book's publication: Missy's blog post.
Happy Anniversary, Mal & Wes! (And thank you, Missy)
Books can be dangerous. The best ones should be labeled "This could change your life". -Helen Exley
ReplyDeleteGah, I love that books have that power. There's nothing better than finding just the right book at just the right time. Thanks for sharing one of yours.
Oh Matt, I read your original post and was cracking up when you said you wouldn't let Brad read the book until he turned eighteen so as not to "corrupt" him. It's been awhile since I was seventeen, but I'm pretty sure Brad was having filthy thoughts just by being in the same room as you - no book necessary. :-)
I love reading and Missy Welsh is a great author. Now if she could give me an longer book sequel for "KLT23" and would be very happy! Thanks for posting this Matty!
ReplyDeleteYou are such a sweetheart, Matty! Thank you for this. I still have the email you sent me where you said you would've sworn *I* was an 18-year-old guy because I wrote Mal so well. Best compliment I've ever gotten for this story! ♥
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any Miss Welsh books - I'll have to try this one. I love your original post. :)
ReplyDeleteSorry, that should be Missy not Miss.
DeleteI'm reading this now & except for Rick the Dick, it's so lovely & hot, I want to melt.
