After the Romance Novel — Susan Laine

A Before… and After Story

Romance novels always end with a happy ever after. Right?

Evan and Adam are best friends, but they don't know everything about each other. For one thing, Adam doesn't know Evan writes and publishes gay romance novels until he discovers one while snooping on Evan's laptop.

This revelation changes their relationship in ways neither could've imagined. Adam's reaction to reading Evan's stories is not what he expected, nor is the new way he's looking at his lifelong pal. After all, Adam is straight, or so he's always thought, and that is what Evan believes about Adam as well.

When Evan admits he might be bisexual, Adam suggests he try dating girls to find out for sure, but when Evan follows his advice, Adam is caught off guard by his feelings of jealousy. And when the date proves Evan isn't bisexual, but gay, Evan's request that Adam find him a guy might be the last straw.

How can Adam admit he wants that guy to be him? His epiphany will either end their relationship -- or change it into something wonderful in their very own friends-to-lovers romance.
