I'm in the minority. DNF. These are the issues that I had while reading up to this point:

I did not care for the MCs. Dave was pretty low intelligence to miss all of the signs that Lee was a guy, especially when they were fooling around. I couldn't suspend disbelief enough to like him - he was TSTL. Lee was an unethical ass - he deliberately took advantage of Dave's low IQ and got off to deliberately deceiving Dave with his cross dressing. Lee was a pretty egotistical know-it-all too.

There was too much baby - she was a prop to shake Dave's definition of gay and to create a situation where Dave and Lee could play house.

Both Dave and Lee were awful caricatures of gay men that weren't funny to me. Dave was a partially closeted gay with a lot of irrational hang-ups. I did not consider him a homophobe because he didn't truly hate himself. Now Lee was definitely a teenage-chick-with-a-dick plus a spoiled-drag-princess.

Sorry, this particular drag mm romantic comedy book just wasn't very entertaining to me.
