    About this ebook

    Bad Idea: Some mistakes are worth making.

    Reclusive comic book artist Trip Spector spends his life doodling supersquare, straitlaced superheroes, hiding from his fans, and crushing on his unattainable boss until he meets the dork of his dreams. Silas Goolsby is a rowdy FX makeup creator with a loveless love life and a secret streak of geek who yearns for unlikely rescues and a truly creative partnership.

    Against their better judgment, they fall victim to chemistry, and what starts as infatuation quickly grows tender and terrifying. With Silas’s help, Trip gambles his heart and his art on a rotten plan: sketching out Scratch, a “very graphic novel” that will either make his name or wreck his career. But even a smash can’t save their world if Trip retreats into his mild-mannered rut, leaving Silas to grapple with betrayal and emotions he can’t escape.

    What will it take for this dynamic duo to discover that heroes never play it safe?

      I need to preface this review by saying I now want to read everything Damon Suede ever has written and ever will write. That is how much I loved this book.

      Trip Spector, comic book artist and all around geek, meets Silas Goolsby, FX makeup artist and all around geek. It's lust at first zombie attack and it swiftly turns into so much more.

      Reasons why I liked this book:

      Trip and Silas are extremely well-rounded characters. As are the supporting characters. Every person in this book could easily get up and walk off the page.

      I like geeks and nerds and writers and artists. I understand them. They are my people.

      The sex was smoking hot. It wasn't just body part A meets body part B, it was emotional and intellectual and it was a full body and mind experience for Trip and Silas and therefore for the reader.

      The conflict that comes between them was believable and natural and was not something that felt manufactured by the author just for the sake of having a conflict.
