‘What a gorgeous, gorgeous book. Funny, warm and touching.' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reader Review When style is everything, will Ethan learn that true beauty is on the inside? Chase Myles can throw together a swinging dinner party or redecorate an entire townhouse with jaw-dropping elegance. Followers scroll his Insta and see effortless workouts, exotic travel, and an adoring boyfriend. The world believes Chase is a style icon. The world is mistaken. Ethan Wells is actually the one who knows what to wear, what to eat and how to do it but he’s happy staying behind the scenes producing their hit LGBTQ show Myles of Style. When Chase walks off set just before the Pride live TV show that will make or break Ethan’s career, Ethan thinks it’s just another tantrum... until Chase’s Instagram shows him partying hard in Abu Dhabi. Out of options, Ethan drives up to rural New York to convince Chase’s estranged twin, Beau, to pass him off as Chase for a week, but Ethan finds a hairy, rugged mountain man who couldn’t be more different from his social butterfly, influencer brother. Can Ethan transform Beau into the star of the show and fool his bosses and Chase’s followers? And when Beau turns out to be kind, romantic and everything that Chase is not, does he really want Chase back, anyway? A gorgeously uplifting queer romance that is a love letter to NYC, featuring a fake-fake boyfriend, opposites attract and a vintage convertible full of elderly drag queens, don’t miss the feelgood read of 2023!

The Problem With Perfect

Izaac Richards

I've become a stereotype of myself and I'm beginning not to like it. I know I'm gay. I'm gay all day, every day, but I don't like being forced to have my identity take centre stage over my personhood.
