About this listen

Can a broken boy and an unconventional daddy help each other heal?

Saxton has never been able to make a daddy stay. He wants one desperately, but they’ve all walked away. He knows exactly why: because, he’s damaged. Broken. Unable to give daddies what they want from him.

When he meets Daddy Gale, who offers to take care of him after an accident, Saxton expects the same thing to happen. But Gale is different in many ways, and he has his own wounds. He has endless patience with Saxton, and he respects Saxton's boundaries.

But when Saxton can’t open up about the trauma that forever changed him, will Gale decide Saxton isn’t worth the trouble, after all? Or, will Saxton finally have a daddy who accepts him the way he is?

Healing Hand is a low heat, sweet daddy care MM romance with loads of hurt/comfort, age play, tender moments, and emotions that will give you all the feels.

Firstly, I love crossovers with other series! So I love that this crossed over with the No Shame series; which if you haven’t listened to already - highly recommend! I’d almost suggest jumping over and listening to that series first, then coming back and finishing this series off with this book. Not necessary, but helps give some more context amongst the friends. This was a really sweet book, and I love that even though the main characters were able to get to a place of openness at a realistic pace, despite difficulties arising from childhood trauma, (alluded to early on but details not shared until the end of the book), this didn’t magically resolve all intimacy issues; but rather an acceptance of being a survivor, not a victim, and the wonderful support of someone who truely loves and accepts us despite traumas that may have occurred. Very much more intuned with reality.
I would have liked to maybe have some more daddyDom check-in with Gale and some of the other daddies. Gale is a long term dom, but first time daddy (maybe seeking advice from Brendon); but otherwise an easy and nice read/listen; also nice to see the growing friendships with the littles. And again - awesome crossover with the Noshame series characters and their wonderful support in becoming a survivor. Recommend listening to this series in order.

Love Crossovers!

Loved the previous books in this series but not this one. When Saxton is brought into the ER after a traffic accident, ER nurse Gale realises he’s a little and offers to provide home care. Saxton has an aversion to sex and he’s been rejected by other daddies. Can Gale break through Saxton’s passive-aggression and give him the love and care he needs? I was wrong-footed by this from the start and never recovered. Would a nurse really offer to move in with a ER patient he’s never met before? I’d be concerned about professional standards if they did. Gale just shows up and never leaves. Their instalove asexual relationship frustrated me. I felt like Saxton and Gale never sat down and talked through the big stuff like how the daddy / little dynamic would operate, how the household would run, defining the relationship - they just kept drifting into each phase. Saxton has a Masters in Psychology and is completing his PhD, yet he always had trouble articulating his concerns and thoughts - unlikely. This meant Gale continually had to be the ever-patient saint without knowing why. Kenneth Obi’s audio narration was the best thing about this.

Failed to convince me!
