Straight Man's Exit

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

Thirteen years of friendship. One tiny apartment. And a realization that changes everything.


Nate's life just blew up. When his long-term relationship with his girlfriend ends abruptly, everything he owns fits into a single duffel bag and a cardboard box. With nowhere else to go, he turns to the one person who has always been his rock: his best friend, Leo.


Leo doesn't hesitate to clear out a closet and make room in his small fourth-floor apartment. He'd do anything for Nate. What Nate doesn't know is that Leo has been hopelessly, quietly in love with him for over a decade. It's the ultimate exercise in torture, but having his straight best friend in his life platonically has always been better than not having him at all.


But the forced proximity of sharing a cramped space shifts something between them. Without the buffer of their old lives, Nate begins to notice things he never let himself see before. The steady rhythm of Leo's heartbeat. The heat of a casual touch. The terrifying, beautiful realization that maybe he isn't who he always thought he was—and that the love of his life has been sitting right next to him the entire time.


When the carefully constructed walls keeping them in the 'just friends' zone finally crumble, there's no going back.


Straight Man's Exit is a high-heat, deeply emotional MM contemporary romance featuring a late-in-life bisexual awakening, forced proximity, and the messy, beautiful arc of falling for your best friend.
