Blurb:
Jordan O’Neill isn’t a fan of labels, considering he has a few. Gay, geek, librarian, socially awkward, a nervous rambler, an introvert, an outsider. The last thing he needs is one more. But when he realises adding the label asexual might explain a lot, it turns his world upside down.
Hennessy Lang moved to Surry Hills after splitting with his boyfriend. His being asexual had seen the end of a lot of his romances, but he’s determined to stay true to himself. Leaving his North Shore support group behind, he starts his own in Surry Hills, where he meets first-time-attendee Jordan.
A little bewildered and scared, but completely adorable, Hennessy is struck by this guy who’s trying to find where he belongs. Maybe Hennessy can convince Jordan that his world hasn’t been turned upside down at all, but maybe it’s now—for the first time in his life—the right way up.
My review:
Aww! I wanted to read this book so bad, and i am so happy that it was as good as I thought it would be.
This was my first asexual book, and it was perfect! I loved it so much! It was cute and romantic and all the warm and fuzzy feelings while reading it with all the butterflies in my belly, aww!
I thought i'd be missing the erotica, but no. It was perfect the way it was.
"And as for sexy? All I want really big and rock-hard on a guy is his IQ and what I consider to be hardcore porn is a picture of a guy reading a book with a hard cover. Soft- core porn is a paperback, and browsing Amazon is my version of PornHub, okay?"
Jordan with his geek, nervous and awkward personality was my favorite ever! I loved him from the very first page. He was so cute. And the way he was stalking Hennessy, lol.
And Hennessy! Awww, he was lovely and kind. And how perfect they were for each other! All the book things, all the romantic dates and the little things.
It is really the perfect romantic book. I loved it so much! I need it in paperback!
"Finding someone to share your life with doesn't have to be based on sexual compatibility. I mean, if you want someone to pound you into next week while you're chained to a cross, then by all means, I hope you find them and live happily ever after in your red room of pain. Or if you want someone who doesn't want to ever have sex but still enjoys hugs and kissing, hand holding, and snuggling on the couch to watch movies, then hell the fuck yes, you should find that person. Or two people, if poly's your thing. Whatever floats your boat, have at it. Find your one person, your tribe. Be happy, be content."
