5.0

A sweet, cute, and fluffy queer romance novel. Made of everything good about a traditional romance novel but, instead of yet another boy meets girl story, you have the parallel of boy meets boy. But don’t let the fluffy cuteness fool you, there is heavy subject matter covered in this book. Subjects such as discovering yourself and demisexuality in all of its incandescent beauty. 

Never Benn Kissed is a story, and thankfully will be a series, that normalizes the spectrum of sexuality and love. Bringing all of it forward as one instead of separated from all others so much that “it must be different”. Because yes it is vastly different but, at its core love is love is love is love. And sexuality is a beautiful prism of rainbow colors waiting to be accepted exactly as they are. This book will prove this and so much more. 

Plus this book has Derek! I love him okay and I need that energy in my life.
