ABOUT:
Bran Kendrick never expected to fall in love. He’s asexual, after all. What chance does he have of finding someone who’ll see past that? So when Malachi Warren catches his eye, Bran tells himself his crush will pass. Malachi disagrees. He has been attracted to Bran for some time, something he is delighted to find Bran reciprocating. They begin to date and feel their way through an intimate relationship that meets both their needs.
Suddenly Bran finds himself juggling a new boyfriend, a demanding job, and a college degree he’s not sure he wants, but he couldn’t be happier—until a series of seemingly random accidents befall Malachi. When they escalate, Bran realizes someone is trying to take away the best thing that ever happened to him, and he must scramble to keep Malachi safe while they search for the would-be killer.
Oh, this sounds like a really interesting book! Also, I saw the sequel was published a few days ago!) My wallet might give me a side-eye, but I’m intrigued enough to snag me a copy. :)

As someone who is asexual (and having talked with other ace folks about this book), it should be noted that there is a lot of erotic content in this book. Yes, Bran is asexual, but he and Malachi still have sex… a LOT! Like, in the first 30 pages. That really surprised me when reading it, so don’t want other readers, especially ace folks looking for a romance with no sexual content, to be caught unaware.
