Book Blitz & REVIEW ***Patchwork Paradise by Indra Vaughn***



Buy Links: Amazon US | Amazon UK

Cover Design: Dar Albert

Length: 205 pages

Blurb

Oliver and Samuel’s relationship is fairy-tale perfect. They share a gorgeous house in Antwerp, go out with their friends every weekend, and count down the days to their dream wedding. But their happy ending is shattered one late night, and just like that, Ollie is left bereft and alone.


The months that follow are long and dark, but slowly Ollie emerges from his grief. He even braves the waters of online dating, though deep down he doesn’t believe he can find that connection again. He doesn’t think to look for love right in front of him: his bisexual friend Thomas, the gentle giant with a kind heart and sad eyes who’s wanted him all along.


When Thomas suddenly discovers he has a son who needs him, he’s ill prepared. Ollie opens up his house—Sam’s house—and lets them in. Ollie doesn’t know what scares him more: the responsibility of caring for a baby, or the way Thomas is steadily winning his heart. It will take all the courage he has to discover whether or not fairy tales can happen for real.


Review

Review by: Jennifer

(4 Stars)

Oliver lives in a bubble of happiness with his fiancĂ©e Sam, a group of great friends, an amazing house, and a good job. He is very content with the life that he and Sam have. When that life is suddenly gone, Oliver is left floundering, trying to figure out his next step. When his friend Thomas is suddenly in need of help, Oliver is more than willing to be first in line.. after all Thomas has been there for him. When everything is suddenly feeling whole again, will Oliver have the strength and courage to take the next step? or is his heart meant for one person and one person only?

So I was not expecting what we got in this story, at all! I spent the first bit crying and a bit heartbroken for Oliver. I spent another bit frustrated and wanting to smack someone upside the head. All and all, this books makes you feel all of the feels, you go through the whole gambit, but by the end you are very satisfied with the outcome. I give this 4 stars.
