"You don't have to do it alone." When Sam inherited his mom's diner and guardianship of his little brother, he lost himself in the rush. His fixation on routines makes dating a challenge, and he's pretty sure he's demisexual. Besides, he's not used to anyone sticking around. Ten years older, Denver survived everything life threw at him before founding a charity. But the ignorance is everywhere, and he can't bring himself to have his heart broken. Love and acceptance don't just get served up with a milkshake. When the guy who always sits in the corner booth surprises the kid who's always working with a different order, all their preconceptions start to collapse. Can they give in to their steadily building attraction, or will uncharted territory make them flee? Faux is the third book in the F-Word series, which features queer found families, characters choosing their own labels, a lot of trans joy, opposites attracting, spice for days, and the happily-ever-afters we all deserve. This novel can be read as a standalone. Rainbow Awards Runner-Up in Asexual Contemporary Romance!
