Naked in Paradise: The True Story of Three Men in Love

by Len Richmond

Naked in Paradise: The True Story of Three Men in Love Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

What if you got dumped by the love of your life and he wouldn't tell you why?

And what if, as soon as you found a new relationship, the lover that dumped you came storming back into your life again — and had an affair with your new lover?

Naked in Paradise, subtitled The True Story of Three Men in Love, is a laugh out loud tale of a trio of erotic neurotics — a hard-drinking, aging heartthrob; a frustrated academic with sex on the brain; and an obsessive-compulsive, Jewish comedy writer.

In a debut that's both funny and heart-wrenching, Richmond brings us a vibrant portrayal of a gay mid-life crisis that all readers, regardless of their age, can relate to.

Wise, erotic, and wickedly funny, this is queer life as you've never seen it before!

Review:

"Rich with funny portraits of all the boyfriends you've ever had, some of them only in your dreams, and one or two only in your nightmares." Bruce Vilanch

Synopsis:

The true story of three men in love.

Recovering from his break-up with the handsome, hard-drinking Mikey, the author tries gay personal ads-but mostly ends up deflowering curious straight men. Then he meets Kieran, a naive, hot college guy precisely half his age, who's hungry for new sex, new drugs, and new experiences. The two fall in love and all's going great, until...Mikey comes back, and he falls for Kieran too. Eventually, an affectionate ménage à trois develops between this trio of erotic neurotics, and the question becomes, can they navigate the choppy waters of a three-way relationship without rules?
