Love Him Free

“To love and be loved, it’s all that matters. In the end.” Socially awkward, thirty-six-year-old virgin, Simon Kadish, knows he wants more from life than a failing bakery and an empty apartment. He just doesn’t know how to get it. Living in a small town, trying to keep his bakery alive, Simon is single-minded and plans to stay that way. And then Simon’s favorite Deaf porn star’s life falls apart in a very public spectacle on Twitter. Simon doesn’t expect anything of the ASL message he sends to Rocco Moretti, but when he looks up one afternoon to find the man standing in the doorway of his shop, Simon realizes his life is about to change forever. Rocco is a force of nature, and Simon is quickly swept up in his wake. But fantasy is not Simon’s reality, and there can’t be a happily ever after on that horizon. Can there?
