The Bad Boyfriends, Inc is back with a fresh look for Horribly Harry. This is a low angst bad meet cute demisexual representation. (This book is substantially the same as previous versions, just re-covered and edited for typos)
From the blurb:
Bad Boyfriends, Inc—when you can’t find a good boyfriend, why not hire a bad one instead?
To supplement his income while he’s completing his Early Education degree, Harry Townsend hires himself out as a terrible date—for a set fee, he’ll horrify parents and family members in all sorts of interesting ways. But when it comes to actual relationships—and sex—Harry doesn’t get the appeal. He doesn’t get the same tingly feelings everyone else seems to when they meet someone attractive. And he’s fine with that.
Jack Windsor abandoned his university degree to do an apprenticeship as a mechanic. He’s happy with his choices, but leaving uni meant losing his accommodation, and now he’s crashing on his sister Mia’s couch. It isn’t ideal, but it’s only until he finds something else—which is proving difficult in Sydney’s brutal rental market.
When Jack recognises Harry from his sister’s terrible date, he almost kills him with a strawberry smoothie. In the aftermath he discovers that not only was Harry’s bad date with Mia a setup, but that Harry is looking for a roommate.
Moving in with Harry is great, if only he wasn’t so distractingly cute—and totally uninterested in Jack. Except as they grow closer, for the first time ever Harry starts to develop feelings—tingly ones. But how can Harry and Jack be together when Jack’s family thinks that Harry is the worst human being in the universe?
Horribly Harry has previously been published. This new edition contains no major content changes.
Molly Otto's review:
Well, these two are the cutest couple ever to couple. What starts off with the worst possible meet cute in history turns to be a sweet romance. Harry does bad boyfriend dates to pay for his schooling and room and board but never actually understood dating itself. Jack's sister was one of Harry's bad dates, and when he sees him again, it doesn't go so well.
First impressions aside, Jack moves in with Harry & Tris and ends up being a perfect match for Harry. Yeah, these two make some mistakes, but in the end, they make it all work out. It's a beautiful representation of a demi relationship and understanding what it is to be demi. Absolutely adored these two and am looking forward to reading the chaos that is Tris story.
