Publisher's summary

A witty search for sex and romance in the age of Covid-19.

Pears is a divorced 40-something living with her mother in Queens when the unsexiest pandemic ever hits the country and smatters her potential love life. If her mother wasn’t enough to cock block her, this virus does a double cock block of trapping her in masks while dosing her in hand sanitizer.

With her customary dry wit and the support of her Queens Girl Gang, Pears endeavors to find a way—some way, any way—to get laid safely, sexily, and sanitarily, by men and women alike.

An unlikely heroine in her mid-40s with a voluptuous size 12 body and an equally voluptuous sense of humor, Pears takes us through her adventures in a fabulously diverse Queens that is, in its own inimitable way, as sexy as ever.

My Covid Romance follows Pears through a SexIntheCity-esque romp through love and desire in the age of masks and social distancing. Pears is something of an everywoman who gives the world what it currently needs most: humor, sex, heart, and a halfway decent climax.

Fun, Hilarious, Quick-Witted

I thoroughly enjoyed this series and am looking forward to Season 2! A little levity goes a long way these days, and this hit the mark. Clapping-hand Emoji’s for days!

All you could want in an audio comedy!

This is one of the best things to come out of the pandemic. MCR is a hilarious and amazingly produced modern epic about human (dis)connection post-COVID. This audio drama illustrates the post-pandemic dating scene beautifully and has so many laugh out loud moments. Stellar performances by all performers. Im ready for the next audiobook in the series!!!

Zany, hilarious, and filthy

This is such a fun listen! I literally laughed out loud so many times. The actors are fabulous, and I feel like I wanna be besties with Pears. She knows how to have a good time, and to make one happen if it comes to it!! Added bonus of horny pandemic Fauci fantasies makes this a must-read.

Knocked it lit of the park, AGAIN!

Another fantastic Love Bytes Original! Well done all. Loved the story line and writing of the characters Gabra! Emily your voices were fantastic! The relationship dynamics and sexy character interactions were wonderful to imagine, very wonderful! 😉 Loved the diversity of the characters sexuality and identities. You’ve really covered all the bases. Bravo!
