I'll Make You A Deal

by Quinn Titus, Brooke M.L. Phillips (Illustrator)

Grant and Oz absolutely cannot stand each other. Grant has spent his whole life fighting to convince his mom that he can ace fine arts school and land a lead musical role on Broadway, whereas Oz has preferred to get drunk, strum his bass to heavy metal, and do everything in his power to get expelled from his father’s prestigious university. But when Oz wants his ex-boyfriend back and Grant needs a way to get his foot through a casting agent’s door, the two roommates make possibly the stupidest deal of their Grant will pretend to be Oz’s boyfriend to make his ex jealous in exchange for a recommendation letter from Oz’s father. Between playing spin-the-bottle at frat parties, dressing up like skeleton strippers, and almost drowning in an indoor hot tub, Grant and Oz are forced to ask themselves the big questions. How badly does Oz need Caleb to love him in order to love himself? Is Grant really ready to leave everything behind to chase his dreams? And how do you define your relationship with your fake-boyfriend-roommate who may or may not love you back? I’ll Make You A Deal is a satirical, sarcastic, vitally queer love story that begs the reader to question how far they’re willing to go to admit that they’re in love.

[Llorona De Luna · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is funny, witty, and thoroughly entertaining from beginning to end! I’m a big fan of Titus’s writing and character development, and will be first in line when they drop any new books in the future! :)

Ahhh! What a cute, heart wrenching story! I felt so fully immersed in the characters’ lives the whole time, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen the fake dating trope executed this well before. Guaranteed, this book will give you all the feels.
