Here's "It All Started With A Text" by Jax Calder. It's the second novel in the Queer Ways to Fall in Love series.
["Nick:
Okay, so making a viral video mocking my celebrity crush's pretentious apartment tour isn’t exactly a strategy for finding love.
And when some random guy slides into my DMs claiming to be Anthony Devine—Grammy-winning pop star, LGBTQ+ icon, and owner of cheekbones that should be illegal—I do what any rational person would do. I assume he's a forty-five-year-old catfish living in his mom's basement.
Except we start chatting and somehow it’s the most real conversation I’ve had for ages. One month and approximately five thousand messages later, AntD has become my favorite person to talk to. He sends me Baby Yoda memes, asks about my assignments and actually listens when I rant about my cheating ex. And it's become our standing joke, him insisting he really is Anthony Devine.
Hilarious, right?
My friends say I need to stop catching feelings for a guy whose real name I don't even know. But meeting him would mean risking everything we've built. Stepping out of our perfect digital bubble. Finally finding out who he actually is.
What if he's not who he says he is?
What if he is?"]
Oh was this story sweet!
It was about building a friendship before a relationship. It was about trust and openness and vulnerability. It was about laughter and friendship and a bond that transcended time zones and probability.
It also had a very certain fanfic vibe to it that I am SO here for it. I wrote so many of these kinds of things, so many of us did. Seeing some so well written, with so much heart, and so much down-to-earth-ness, one that will hopefully get some serious traction, I'm so happy.
