Paint Our Song is Maia Kinley's debut release and for it being their first book it's extraordinary!
From the blurb:
Miles Curtis, a painter, owes his success to the popular band Cloverlily. Their music helped him get out of a slump many years ago, and he’s been a huge fan ever since. When he temporarily moves back home to help his family’s inn, he finds out that their guitarist, Calvin Lowe, is staying in one of their rooms.
Calvin, who turns out to be very quiet and withdrawn, is currently dealing with his band’s break-up. He makes it clear from the onset that he’s here to keep to himself. When he finds out that Miles is the painter he’s been wanting to meet, he seems more annoyed than anything else.
The two of them clash from the onset, but it doesn’t take that long for both of them to figure out that they have more in common than they initially thought–including being fans of each other’s work for years.
Paint Our Song is an m/m romance for those who love slow burns, opposites attract, strangers-to-lovers, and small-town novels.
Angel's review:
I'm blown away by the writing in this story, it flowed so beautifully and the characters were phenomenal. I loved how everything was connected, even though Miles never met Calvin until later in life, these two men were connected since the beginning of both of their careers. I really enjoyed that full circle realization moment that these characters had when they discovered that about each other.
I found the story itself to be very beautiful, I liked how both of these men were into different art forms and how they inspired one another. I found that to be very beautiful.
Calvin and Miles slowly got to know each other throughout this story and developed a friendship that gradually grew into more. It was such a terrific slow burn that had mild angst, and was full of swoony romantic scenes. Both of these characters have such vibrant personalities and characteristics, they have great backstory and the dialogue and chemistry that occurs between these two men is fantastic! The side characters are as amazing as Calvin and Miles are, they provide hilarious banter and help move the story along in a nice way. I loved the cheeky and teasing banter that Calvin and Miles had with each other, it was so cute, and really gave off that feeling of "will they, won't they?".
I thought this story was fantastic and I'm really excited to read more books set in this series. I'm specifically looking forward to Gil and Chase's story, I'm so curious about how their story is going to go.
