Free MM Romance Book: All the Time We Didn’t Have by Jace Wilder — Long Distance, Late-Night Calls, and the Blue Door That Means Everything
Want a free MM long-distance romance with a touch-starved introvert, a restless photographer, and digital intimacy that detonates the moment they’re finally in the same room? All the Time We Didn’t Have by Jace Wilder is yours — completely free, no strings.
What’s the Book About?
Arlo Hayes doesn’t do people. A remote software engineer in Rochester, he’s built his life small on purpose — one apartment, one routine, one carefully maintained silence that keeps the world at a safe distance. He eats standing up. He alphabetizes everything. He hasn’t been touched in two years, and he tells himself that’s a choice.
Leo Vance doesn’t do staying. A travel photographer who lives out of a suitcase, he’s warm, magnetic, and constitutionally incapable of staying anywhere long enough for anyone to notice he’s lonely.
A shared freelance project puts them on a video call, and the chemistry is immediate and completely inconvenient. Work banter becomes late-night texts. Texts become calls that run past midnight. Then one conversation crosses every line — and suddenly they’re falling for each other across thousands of miles, with nothing between them but screens. When Leo finally flies to Rochester, the collision is everything they imagined and nothing they’re prepared for.
Why Readers Love This One
It’s a love story built one call at a time. The digital intimacy — sexting, phone sex, video calls that escalate — isn’t a gimmick; it’s how two men who are terrible at being close learn how to do it. By the time they’re in the same room, the reader has been starving for it as long as they have.
And Arlo is the quiet, controlled top who takes Leo apart with his voice — then melts the first time somebody actually holds him. Grumpy/sunshine, opposites attract, and a 1,847-mile drive across the country for love.
