Booklist 'The first book coming out from the imprint is The (Fake) Dating Game by Timothy Janovsky. This author is known for his m/m romances. His 2024 with Afterglow Books is about Holden and Leo who have undeniable chemistry, so much so that they agree to fake date. The only caveat is that theyre auditioning for a game show, Madcap Market. Honestly, this one sounds like so much fun and as someone who loves games shows, Im completely on board.'
