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 hes 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 Ethans career, Ethan thinks its just another tantrum until Chases Instagram shows him partying hard in Abu Dhabi.

Out of options, Ethan drives up to rural New York to convince Chases estranged twin, Beau, to pass him off as Chase for a week, but Ethan finds a hairy, rugged mountain man who couldnt be more different from his social butterfly, influencer brother.

Can Ethan transform Beau into the star of the show and fool his bosses and Chases 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, dont miss the feelgood read of 2023! Fans of Casey McQuiston, Boyfriend Material and Beth OLeary will love this.
