BLURB:
When college athlete Chad comes out to his parents and gets a nasty reaction, sparkly twink Joaquin “Joy” Acosta offers him shelter in his tiny apartment. Joy’s the sweetest, most beautiful roommate on the planet, and every day, Chad falls in love a little bit more. The problem is, Joy will never know since his banter-loving hipster friends make bear-sized Chad feel all hulking and tongue-tied.
Joy is a sucker for anything handmade, though, and eventually Chad decides to tell him he loves him with a self-knitted pair of gloves. But it turns out knitting is way harder than Chad expected. Fortunately, Joy knows just how to save the day….
REVIEW:
Chad is about the sweetest guy you ever met. When he finally gathers up the courage to come out to his family he finds himself out on the street.
Joy is the exact opposite of Chad in looks and demeanour but you know what they say about opposites.
This story is adorable. Chad’s shyness and uncertainty is definitely compelling and Joy? Well he will have you cheering with his compassion and understanding.
I loved watching Chad figure himself out and Joy has the patience of a saint as he waits for Chad to see what’s right in front of his eyes.
If you are looking for a sweet Christmas treat with very little angst, this story will leave you smiling!
