Proximity Disorder: A MM Why Choose Romance

by Violet Kensington

Ace’s life was painfully normal.

Until he accidentally went on a first date with the wrong twin.

Cedar is charming, warm, and dangerously good at flirting. When he asks Ace out for drinks, Ace assumes it’s a miracle.

Then Cedar’s identical twin shows up.

Aspen is brilliant, terrifying, and apparently believes personal space is a social experiment.

Ace spent twenty-seven years being ignored.

Now two disasters are fighting over him.

And things are about to get very complicated.



This story also contains explicit sexual content between consenting adults within a polyamorous relationship (MM+), as well as intense emotional and possessive dynamics.

While the novel explores heavy topics, it is ultimately a story about survival, healing, found family, and reclaiming safety after trauma.

This story is not intended to glamorize or romanticize mental illness.

I VIOLENTLY devoured this CHAOTIC book ENTIRELY in one session to MAINTAIN THE PERIMETER of my fixation on this insane dynamic

was this well written? no. do I regret reading it? also no.

It's junk food reading for anyone who needs a little pick me up after exhausting all the decent mm options.

Was going through a reading slump and this book came across my timeline as a “get out of your reading slump” book.

It did that.

Aspen gave me slight Sheldon vibes with everything down to the mildest thing turning into a scientific statement. Cedar is definitely the Prince Charming personality. And good ole Ace is just the quiet golden retriever vibe.

🌶️🌶️🌶️ spice

This was such a fun read. Aspen reminds me of Sherlock from bbc. Just so literal and scientific. I love him. He is baby and must be protected. Ace is adorable and I love how he balances them. He is a perfect blend of them both. Cedar is the normal that they both need to function in the world.

I absolutely loved this book. The twins differences and the way they take care of Ace made my heart feel so full. I love Aspens way of dealing with things in a completely logical and clinical way. Cedar was the perfect golden retriever.
