Chasing the Light: Granite-Glacier #1 Small-Town M/M Romance Kindle Edition

Aiden Marsh is nobody. After his long-ill mother dies, he's left by himself with the end of their apartment lease, and the loneliness of the city. When the internet friend he's been crushing invites him on a trip to photograph the northern lights, how is he supposed to say no? There's just the tiny little fact that he's been lying about his life for the last year. But everyone lies on the internet, right?

Russell Merritt had it all. Had. Past tense. A meteoric rise to photographer fame: a storied freelance career and his own show on World Wild. What else could he want? Then it all came crashing down, and that's exactly the question he has to answer. What else could he want?

Now, Russell and Aiden are taking on the wilds of Granite-Glacier--Russell's old, forsaken hometown--on a photo excursion that lets them both forget the mess of their lives. But even their growing attraction can only keep reality at bay for so long. They're going to have to drag all their secrets out into the light.

Chasing the Light is a sweet, all-vibes MM romance set in a small town. For fans of secret identities, forced proximity, the wild outdoors, and internet-friends-to-lovers.

4.0 out of 5 stars Discovering each other through the lens of a camera was epic for me! 
Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2024
Discovering each other through the lens of a camera was epic for me!  I loved their gradual journey to finding attraction and connection.  I like the way their real world gradually got woven into their photo excursion.  

I loved how each felt they had failed and how together they overcame that perspective and began healing.  Aiden and Russell have a sweet and gentle ride. 

This is the first book in the Granite-Glacier series and i will be looking for the next books.  

I was gifted this book from Gay Romance Reviews and i freely give my honest opinion and review.

5.0 out of 5 stars An incredibly sweet story
Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2024

Was this a perfect book? No. There are occasional grammatical errors, some of the big reveals don't get the attention they deserve (although the most important one is absolutely done justice), and the ending feels a little abrupt. Was it still a book I can see myself rereading multiple times? Absolutely. This was my first book by Mal but it won't be the last. I can't wait to see more of Granite-Glacier.

3.0 out of 5 stars Loved the story, fix the typos!
Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2024
I almost put it down about a third of the way in because of sloppy editing. A character is speaking and suddenly instead of "I" this and "I" that, it's "he." Words left out. Inconsistencies: Light complexion or dark? Also, word use: A car "careering" down the road, instead of "careening." I tried to find a way to contact the author to let him know how poorly the editing relects on the quality of the book. The characters are likable, the story and setting are well drawn. Have someone give it another pass with the editing pencil, dear author, then reupload to Kindle Unlimited. I'd love to read more, but poor editing is kind of a slap in the face to the attentive reader.

4.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful love story.
Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2024
I loved this story. Aiden and Russell are both at their lowest point and hiding from their mistakes. Aiden is reeling from the loss of his mother and Russell is recovering from a career ending mistake. After becoming friends in a online forum for professional photographers Aiden agrees to spend a week with Aiden attempting to take photos of the Northern Lights. I enjoyed how both men moved slowly to reveal their secrets and discover the feelings they been developing online.

5.0 out of 5 stars Aiden and Russell
Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2024
A low key romance that stole my heart from page one. Both Aiden and Russell are living with hurts and secrets that make life hard, but suddenly their online relationship shifts to in person when they decide to go see the Northern Lights. A funny book, with two main characters with an age gap, but who are so in need of one another. both Dealing with pain and issues and love watching their slow developing friendship developing into a slow developing love story--it is present in such a realistic way that even the moments secrets revealed are not in over the top dramatic fashion, but like realities of every day. Love how they had to learn to trust and confront own insecurities. My first by this author but last. I did receive an ARC and leave this honest review.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice chemistry between the main characters
Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2024
Aiden and Russ have secrets. From each other and possibly from themselves. Both avoiding the past, not ready to face the future. Their perceived failures almost blinding them to their present.

I liked the chemistry between Aiden and Russ. They already thought it was there but as a reader I got to discover it alongside them. I liked that the gradual discovery of their “secrets”, without a lot of drama, made the story stronger. The things they kept from each other weren’t earth shattering and didn’t make me think less of them.

Being introduced to their world through their cameras was a shot straight to the heart. The vivid use of their photography as a love language was unusual and created a pleasing sweet, slow book and I enjoyed it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keeping secrets
Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2024
I was drawn in by the hints of mystery in this book. It was clear that both Aiden and Russell have been hiding things from each other and the author has been keeping secrets from the reader and I really wanted to find out what was going on. I'm a big fan of age gap romances so that definitely made me happy here and the way these two moved from their internet discussions about photography to friendship to more once they met and went out on their photography trek also worked for me. I enjoyed the way the author handled the revelations of their secrets and look forward to more in this series.

This author is new to me, and I will definitely check out more. This was a sweet and steamy romance in a beautiful setting between two people who have gone through some difficult times. Their connection is instant, but they both feel undeserving. Eventually, they get it together, and it is heartwarming.

This is the first book I’ve read by this author and I really enjoyed it, the story was well written and the characters were good. Both Russell and Aiden had secrets that they thought made them unworthy of each other but when they get together and their secrets are exposed it brings them closer together and we get a lovely Hea. Looking forward to the next book in this series, I wonder who’s story it will be Jonah, Daniel or maybe both l can’t wait to find out.
