 A hilarious, unputdownable second-chance-romance about the most unlikely, gay roommate mishap. Perfect for fans of Casey McQuiston and Gwen & Art Are Not in Love.

Romance is the last thing on Charlie’s mind.

On his first day at Valentine Academy for Boys, Charlie’s carefully crafted plan to hide his identity as the school’s only trans student is set in motion. Only to be immediately destroyed. Charlie has been assigned the worst roommate in the world (possibly the universe): Jasper Grimes, the boy who broke Charlie’s heart the year before he transitioned.

Except, Jasper doesn’t recognize Charlie.

Who knows how long until Jasper realizes the truth? Charlie has one shot at freedom and a dorm room all to himself, but only if he helps Jasper write love letters on behalf of their fellow students first. No problem. Charlie can help Jasper with some silly letters.

Long nights spent discussing deep romantic feelings with Jasper? Surely, no unintended consequences will arise…

Madison S. ★★★★★

The enemies-to-roommates setup had me cackling by page ten, and the way their history unravels kept me up way too late. That "second-chance" tension is perfectly paced.

Eva N. ★★★★★

This book is genuinely hilarious; I was laughing out loud by page twenty. The way the roommate mishap unfolds feels so natural and real, and it’s a perfect light, feel-good read.

Madison B. ★★★★★

I was laughing out loud by chapter two—the roommate misunderstanding setup is pure comedic gold. The slow-burn romance between the two guys feels so genuine, and I couldn't put it down until I finished.
