How Not to Ask a Boy to Prom by S.J. Goslee
4.0
I received an ARC of this title from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
This is the story of how not to ask a boy to prom. Especially how not to ask a boy you'd never dream of asking to prom to go to prom with you. Especially how not to ask a boy you'd never dream of asking to prom to go to prom with you when you weren't even planning on going to prom in the first place.
Nolan Grant Sheffield (Two last names, no hyphen) is a pretty laid back, chill guy. Loves art, narwhals, plants, his cat, his adopted family, his best friend Evie. He's still dealing a bit with having been in foster care as well as being openly gay, but he's got everyone he needs and he likes to take life easy.
Then his sister, Daphne: 1: is dumped by her boyfriend, 2: decides that if she can't be happy and go to prom with a guy, then her baby bro sure is.
Thus how Nolan gets thrust headfirst into asking out a boy to prom. But when his sister's planned "prom-posal" goes wrong, Nolan is saved from humiliation by the least likely person: bad boy Bern, with his tattoos, his motorcycle, and a chip on his shoulder following his break-up. Now, Nolan and Bern are fake-dating. What could possibly go wrong?
A cute, queer fake-dating novel for those who loved "To All the Boys I've Loved Before" and "What If It's Us?".
