This is a slow burn novel with the strangers-to-friends-to-lovers trop. The Straight Game is a M/M Romance with a HEA. This thing we’re doing? It’s just a game. We’re just friends, and besides, I’m 100% straight. But there are a lot of things about Daniel that are impressive - he’s kind, thoughtful and absolutely gorgeous. Honestly, I’m impressed Daniel’s brave enough to keep going even when it means kissing and touching each other and taking our clothes off. Somehow our competitions somehow turn R-rated. But as we spend the summer holidays together and our games get increasingly sexual, I’m forced to face the terrifying truth: I might like Tate more than a friend. I can’t say no to a competition, no matter whether it’s a swimming race or an intense match of truth or dare, no matter how much Tate makes my heart flutter. Something about his toffee-brown eyes and fearless attitude immediately draws me in and I learn we have a lot in common:

When I’m stuck in an unfamiliar city, attending maths lectures for my final high school exams, I resign myself to two days of boredom.
