I did this backward aka I read K Jackson's second book first then his debut. This was similarish to his second book. Small town gay guy tries to make it in the big city and well... it doesn't turn out like their dreams intended. I did like the humor in this one but the pop culture references were sprinkled a little too much throughout the book. It took me away a bit. I also wasn't the biggest fan of Hudson and Kian as a couple. I think it's because I thought Kian deserved someone who treated him better. We never really did get a reason as to why Hudson broke up with Kian in the first place. So the "fake dating" trope doesn't make sense with this one. I think a second chance would make more sense. I also wish Jackson's editor caught the mistake that happened with Wallace, how did no one catch that?

The story is good but all the inconsistencies kept pulling me out of it. This book needed another round with a copy editor before publication.
