  Three Black gay millennial men look for love, friendship, and professional success in the Motor City in this hilarious and touching debut novel. Suddenly jobless and single after a devastating layoff and a breakup with his cheating ex, advertising copywriter Dominick Gibson flees his life in Hell’s Kitchen for a fresh start in his hometown of Detroit. He’s got one objective—exit the shallow dating pool ASAP and get married by thirty-five—and the deadline’s approaching fast.  Meanwhile, Dom’s best friend, Troy Clements, an idealistic teacher who never left Michigan, finds himself at odds with all the men in his life: a troubled boyfriend he’s desperate to hold onto, a perpetually dissatisfied father, and his other friend, Remy Patton. Remy, a rags-to-riches real estate agent known as “Mr. Detroit,” has his own problems—namely choosing between making it work with a long-distance lover or settling for a local Mr. Right Now who’s not quite Mr. Right. And when a high-stakes real estate deal threatens to blow up his friendship with Troy, the three men must figure out how to navigate the pitfalls of friendship and a city that seems to be changing overnight.  Full of unforgettable characters, Boys Come First is about the trials and tribulations of real friendship, but also about the highlights and hiccups—late nights at the wine bar, awkward Grindr hookups, workplace microaggressions, situationships, frenemies, family drama, and of course, the group chat—that define Black, gay, millennial life in today’s Detroit.

  Eli never thought he’d get past the first audition for a dating reality show. Awkward, self-conscious, and far more at ease behind a laptop than on stage, he expected to be sent home before the first episode ended. Instead, the producers cast him as one half of the season’s biggest “rivalry.” His opposite? Carter confident, magnetic, and annoyingly good at charming the cameras.
   
  The producers push for drama, so Eli and Carter deliver: sharp banter, playful sabotage, and every ounce of tension the audience craves. But when challenges turn ridiculous and late-night confessionals stretch too long, the line between staged performance and something real starts to blur. Fans online are already pairing them as the season’s surprise couple, though Eli knows how dangerous it can be when the whole world is watching.
   
  As the public vote raises the pressure and off-camera moments cut too close, Eli is forced to ask himself what’s true. Is his connection with Carter just part of the game or is it something he can’t walk away from when the lights finally go out?
   
  When the last confession arrives, will Eli be ready to make it matter?

  The line between annoyance and affection blurs with every fight, every laugh, every compromise. Their apartment may stay cluttered, but what about the feelings building between them?
   
  Can two opposites turn chaos into something worth keeping or will the noise be too much?
