About the Author-
Helen Hoang is that shy person who never talks-until she does and then all the worst things fly out of her mouth. She read her first romance novel in eighth grade and has been addicted ever since. In 2016, she was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, in line with what was previously known as Asperger's Syndrome. Her journey inspired The Kiss Quotient. She currently lives in San Diego with her husband, two kids, and pet fish.
Reviews-
July 19, 2021 A classical musician struggling with professional burnout, family judgment, and a faithless long-term boyfriend gets her groove back in the beautifully melancholy and meditative latest from Hoang (The Bride Test). Violinist Anna Sun is already in a major professional rut when, instead of the marriage proposal she expects, her parent-approved long-term boyfriend proposes that they experiment with an open relationship. Given what he perceives as Anna’s lack of interest in sex, he doesn’t expect that the experiment will go both ways. But then Anna meets sexy, tattooed, motorcycle-riding Quan Diep. Quan quickly proves that he only looks like a bad boy; he’s patient, kind, and supportive as both a friend and sexual partner and, sweetly, brings food for Anna’s unwelcoming family when her dad lands in the hospital. Hoang strikes a more somber tone in this outing, giving Anna daunting challenges to overcome, including some serious hang-ups around sex. Readers shouldn’t expect a typical rom-com, but many will still swoon for this sensitive love story. Agent: Kim Lionetti, Bookends Literary.

Natalie Naudus and Brian Nishii narrate an emotionally demanding but ultimately rewarding romance. Musician Anna Sun feels trapped both professionally and personally when fate leads her to Quan Diep. The biker is the first person who has ever loved her simply for who she is. Anna's emotional journey is at times devastating, and Naudus fully embodies her distress. Anger over her ex-boyfriend's betrayal, grief over her father's medical situation, agony over her family's dismissal of her pain are all visceral and real. Nishii gives Quan a quiet determination that makes his unconditional support of Anna all the more comforting when seen as a counterpoint to the turmoil in her life. The journey Anna and Quan undertake is intense, but Naudus and Nishii see them through. K.M.P. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine
