Unconventional


Max Hudson - 2017
    The only things he knows about him is that he's attractive, likes lattes, and his name is Jonathan. Afraid of having nothing to talk about with him, Cameron can never seem to start a conversation, as much as he tries. He decides the upcoming weekend at UnagiCon, a local anime convention, will help him clear his mind and help him find someone to get his attention away from the unattainable Jonathan. Jonathan Nakamura has a huge crush on the cute, friendly barista who takes his coffee order each morning. Afraid that his geeky interests would scare him (or anyone for that matter) away, Jon is unable to bring himself to speak to the barista outside of ordering his usual drink. Jon, shy, gay, and lonely, hasn't had anything resembling a relationship in years and has turned to hookups to keep himself occupied but hasn't been able to get the barista off his mind. He decides his next fling will be at the convention, hoping that it will provide him the confidence to finally ask the barista out. While Cameron thinks Jonathan is way out of his league and vice versa, the two find themselves slowly being pushed together and a whirlwind weekend at a local anime convention may prove that they have far more in common than they originally thought. Please Note: This book contains adult language & steamy adult activities, it is intended for 18+ Adults Only. Novella, approx. 25,000 words in length. HEA (happy ever after ending).
