Sweet, Lovely, Attentive

Arm has just arrived in Minnesota from Thailand, excited for his first semester of university in America and to leave some painful parts of his past behind. Exhausted after his long flight (and almost having his bags stolen), he quickly passes out upon making it to his dorm room. Suddenly, he awakes to a gentle voice and aqua blue, angelic eyes he can't break his gaze away from. They belong to Logan, aka Legs, a gorgeous, good-humored Minnesota farm boy who is to be Arm's roommate. But before long, both boys can sense there's more to their feelings than a shared bond as roommates. From there blossoms a love story that leads Arm and Legs through being best friends to a romantic relationship full of lasting commitment, support . . . and flirtatious teasing, verbal sparring, and overthinking. As Arm works part-time translating the work of Tim, a gay author of boys' love (BL) stories who helps the couple out more than once, he becomes convinced he has fallen into a dramatic BL plot. He's not wrong-together Arm and Legs face drama around campus, family secrets, and past trauma as they build a relationship according to their own rules. Blending elements of Thai BL dramas and North American LGBTQA+ romance into one passionate package, Sweet, Lovely, Attentive is a gay college romance perfect for older teen and adult readers.
