Weekend

May 2016, Arsenal Pulp Press 1551526352 (ISBN13: 9781551526355)   

“Propulsive,” says Publishers Weekly; “The best book I’ve read all year,” says Julie Enszer. “The book to beat for the 2016 Lammy. Buy it, read it, love it.” “A tour de force,” says the Vancouver Sun. “Remarkable.”

“Sexy romp and tender exploration of vulnerability.” Zoe Whittall

“Tender and raw, with smoldering sex scenes and intimate arguments that leave bruises.”

“…astonishingly tender queer exploration of gender, race, class, ability, love, family, sexuality, sex, and kink that is also a damned fine story. Captivating, sexy, heartbreaking.” -Sassafras Lowrey
