When it rains, it pours. And right now, it’s a freaking monsoon.
Bjorn:
After my parents' deaths, I gave up on the typical twenty-something lifestyle and devoted myself to raising my younger siblings. Sure, it meant growing up fast, but someone had to keep the family together. With very little time or energy to focus on myself, I missed out on two potentially great relationships with amazing guys. But my siblings always come first.
Now we’re all grown and have our own lives, not that I’ve stopped guiding them where I can. Old habits die hard. But it takes my own near-death experience before I step back and finally focus on me. The problem is, I’m not sure I remember how. When Kaino Nieminen and Xander Neilsen, my two missed chances, walk into my hospital room on the same day, at the same time, is the universe finally cutting me a much deserved break? Or is this just another cruel joke?
Kaino:
Making friends doesn’t come easily. I could blame my ASL interpreting job that keeps me busy across the tri-state area, but I'm a non-binary, casual-touch-averse, demisexual, so making connections is a challenge. I need time to really get to know a person before casual touch or flirting can happen, and believe me, most people aren’t that patient.
Then I found shibari, and the intimacy I struggle with in typical ways comes naturally in the intention and precision of the lines and knots of rope. For years, it’s been enough. But when the only guy who ever took the time to know and accept me as I am almost dies, I know I’ve been kidding myself. Before I know it, I’m in Bjorn’s hospital room, and the almost instant re-connection between us has me shaken and ready to give things one more try. Then Xander Neilsen walks in and throws a wrench into my plan.
Xander:
I live to fill eager student’s minds with the wonder that is Dickens and Austen, to debate the merits of Shelley and dive into the scandalous roots of the Bronte sisters’ novels. Woe betide the graduate student who doesn’t find English Literature as fascinating a topic. And if they’re foolish enough to take my class? Well, some of the nicer things I’ve been called are sharp-tongued and defensive. Not usually traits that win friends and influence students. Or Deans in the English department. Or romantic partners.
Except for Bjorn Osouf. Our fleeting but passionate relationship is burned into my memory, like the glowing embers of Manderlay. When the fool plays hero and almost gets himself killed during a hostage situation, I know it’s time to find him and reconnect. As expected, there’s still a spark between us. What I don’t anticipate is the imminently fascinating Kaino Nieminen, or my inconvenient attraction to them.
Complete Me is a low-angst, mxm, opposites attract contemporary LGBTQ+ romance about unexpected connections, being more than two halves of a whole, and finding the perfect fit, even if it’s not quite as expected. There is no cheating, but there are lots of dad jokes, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
