Trey Lari's LGBTQ+ Romance novel, Crunchy Orange Chicken, is now available at your favorite book retailers in paperback or eBook.

Kaden, a shy fifteen-year-old baking nerd, is just trying to make it through the stormy seas of high school. Enter Hunter, the dreamy swim jock who crashes Kaden’s gaming session with his bestie, Gabby. Kaden, being the ultimate wingman, hatches a plan to get Gabby noticed by this Adonis in a swimsuit. But hold up, because Kaden’s protective bro, Jacob, is convinced that Hunter’s flirty vibes are aimed at none other than our sweet, oblivious Kaden. Cue the internal panic and heart palpitations every time Hunter so much as breathes in Kaden’s direction.

Just as Kaden is ready to dive headfirst into this pool of confusing emotions, a devastating tragedy cannonballs into his life, threatening to drown his already chaotic family.

Kaden must tread the treacherous waters of falling for the boy of his dreams while desperately trying to keep his family afloat. He’ll have to embark on a journey of self-discovery, and sacrifice, learning that sometimes, you’ve got to risk it all to find your way to happiness.

“Crunchy Orange Chicken” is perfect for fans of “Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda” and “Heartstopper.”
