In this episode, we discuss Vanessa North’s M/M romance, Out of Sync: “Jacks Williams is Ritchie Ford’s one great love. Their life as the rhythm section of the band Vertical Smile is perfect—only upstaged by the one they share as lovers. Until one night Jacks locks himself in the bathroom and slices his arms open, shattering everything Ritchie knows.
Ten years earlier, Jackson Williams, III appeared to lead a charmed life. In reality, it was hell. Trapped in an abusive home, Jacks acted out small rebellions and dreamed of freedom. Until Ritchie Ford rescued him like a puppy, and everything changed. He would be perfect for Ritchie—it was the least he could do.
Months after Jacks attempted suicide, the two men struggle to navigate their formerly perfect relationship. After ten years of loving their idealized versions of each other, can they make a life together out of the truth?”
This heartfelt and emotional book led to some great chatting about codependent relationships, the countless benefits of therapy, and the beauty of chosen families. We also ramble about our love for tattoos and bisexual rep in romance, the pitfalls of compulsive heterosexuality, and so much more! Oh, and this is the tea we talk about at the beginning of the episode: Menstrual Melody Tea by Euphoric Herbals.
