soft boy trope recs

[Aye]

hi! I was wondering if you could recommend some soft boy books. I'll leave a couple of examples of male characters that I love, just so you know more or less what I consider soft boys
-literally any male character in Rachel Lynn Solomon's books
-Alex Nilsen, from people we meet on vacation
-Peeta Mellark, from the hunger games
-Brendon Lowell, from hang the moon

Wow, I was not only going to recommend Rachel's books but also Alex from PWMOV as soon as I saw the title, so I had to think about it more. 😆

These two are more women's fiction than straight up romance, but I really loved Katherine Center's Happiness for Beginners and Things You Save in a Fire that I think also fit. Jake from Happiness for Beginners in particular is really great and one of my fave MMCs! The bonus content (Guy at the Wedding) is super sweet.

Hi there! I hope this is allowed - I have a soft boy supporting member who's a love interest/secondary protagonist in my series. The Meaning Wars
