Description
Open relationship. Threesomes. Online dating. Being twenty-something in London. Sounds like fun . . . right?
Eoin is doing great. He's 27, gainfully employed and in a long-term relationship with his boyfriend Rich.
Okay, so his best friend Jax is diving into yet another disastrously bad relationship and Eoin's going to be the one dealing with the eventual fallout. And his boss at the café, Rebecca, seems to have vanished, so somehow Eoin's left managing the place. And to be honest, he's not got much else going on.
But still, he's got his boyfriend Rich - steady, sensible and dependable Rich. That is, until Eoin's world is turned upside down when Rich announces that he wants an open relationship. Terrified of losing the man he loves, Eoin reluctantly agrees to this new arrangement, and stumbles into the world of dating with no strings attached.
What could go wrong?

Thank you Hodder & Stoughton and netglley for this audio copy. I loved the voice and could feel all tge delusions, all the fears, emotions of the main character. I could scream at him to be stand for him self and not be so dependent on one relationship. I immagine is hard but anyway there are ways and wayd of dealing with the obstacles. Anyway we have to fall to rise again.

Such a fun, fast-paced and heartwarming read. I loved the representation of a relationship outside the ‘mainstream’ and having it told from an Irish voice!
Eoin was a very likeable character and I was absolutely rooting for him from the beginning. The journey was complicated, freeing, emotional and joyous. I finished it in one sitting.
The experience was made even better hearing the author read it themselves, a rich and familiar voice tied with the wonderful production.
Thank you so much!

Thank you to Netgalley and Hodder & Stoughton for a copy of this book.
27 year old, barista, Eoin's life is turned upside down when his long-term boyfriend, Rich suggests they open up their relationship..
Meanwhile, the he's left managing the coffee shop as his boss Rebecca is missing.
I found this a very enjoyable, fairly lighthearted, quick read. Eoin is a likeable and relatable character; I found it refreshing to see a main character in his late 20s working as a barista and enjoying it, I wish we saw more characters aged 25+ working these type of jobs and not hating it.
Looking forward to more from the author.

It seems I'm going to read pretty much everything Bryan Moriarty writes. I loved the honest, funny and sensitive way he writes, and listening to the audio version read by himself was an absolute joy. The first person narration coupled with Bryan's distinctive Irish accent gives a special, authentic flavour to the book, and I wonder how much of the story is inspired by his own experiences.
A loveable, bittersweet romance.
Many thanks to NetGalley and Hodder & Stoughton for an Advance Review Copy.
