Booklist: Most Anticipated LGBTQ+ Romances of 2024

A legal assistant by day becomes a karaoke queen by night to grab a second chance at love in this joyfully queer rom-com, perfect for fans of Casey McQuiston and Alexis Hall.

For Rex Araneta, his college sweetheart Aaron Berry was always the one who got away. So when he finds out that Aaron is now living in the same town and needs help saving his karaoke bar, it’s Rex to the rescue. Or more like Regina Moon Dee, Rex’s internet-famous drag queen alter ego. Even if no one can know the identity of the man behind the makeup.

As Regina’s popularity grows, Rex’s ruse becomes more difficult to keep under wraps. It even becomes a family affair with his mom and sister helping to keep his secret. It’s dawning on Rex that he’s hidden this side of himself away for far too long . . . and perhaps his real shot at love is to reveal his true self. And be loved for all that he is.

Another winner

Great story well written love the different characters also perfectly read, Manila did a great job. I hope that Dominic has another book in the works.

Sweet and funny and perfectly lovely

I loved it so much! The cultural immersion was to die for. Drag, Philippino, San Francisco... Ugh. I have book hangover and it's all this book's wonderful fault. %he romance was so freaking sweet and supportive and perfectly lovely, and three narrator did an amazing job and made a wonderful Rex. I can't wait to listen to it again!

Pink Unicorn for the win!

This was a new to me author and narrator. I am not usually into contemporary romance, but I loved this one. I enjoyed learning a little bit about the Philippine culture and food. I loved all the characters. Minimal angst. No on page smexy times, but that just gives the story more of a spotlight.
I will definitely try this author again.
