Have you always wondered what a Therapist is writing in their little notebook?
Check out the graphics below with some inner thoughts from the characters and a note from the Therapist in our story, Holly.
Writing a book with “Trick Your Therapist” in the title meant that we knew people might think it was about a relationship with a therapist. This book is not that. While How to Trick your Therapist is not a romance between a patient and a mental health professional, the therapist is a big part of the story. We did our best to represent her ethically, with some creative freedom for a romantic comedy. While the therapist in this story is a work of fiction, a real life Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) was consulted and acted as a sensitivity reader for this story. Thank you to Candy for your invaluable feedback!

Trying to trick a therapist may have been the best, or worst, thing that ever happened to these two best friends.
Levi
I just started law school in San Francisco… and have a huge crush on my straight best friend.
Having Bryce as a college roommate meant I never dated, because I’m gay and awkward, and might have a little unrequited crush. When our friends bet we can’t trick a therapist into believing we’re a couple, I thought they were joking. Until Bryce drags me to the counselor at his new job and convinces me to do the intimate homework she gives us.
All I can hope for is to not lose my best friend along with getting my heart broken.
Bryce
Note to self: Trying to pull one over on your therapist to win a bet could result in a lot of awkward—and not so awkward—naked times with your best friend.
If you’d asked me at the start of our friendship, I’d have said I was completely, 100% straight. Levi and I bonded from the moment we met, and four years later we’re still best friends. But a drunken bet with our buddies led us down a path that I wasn’t entirely sure we’d be able to come back from.
My inability to back down from a bet could cost me everything good in my life.

Writing a rom-com for the shy and lonely farmer Hayes, along with the sunny content creator Kai, was so much fun!

I’ve moved their Prequel short story to Kindle Unlimited in case you haven’t read it yet, but Fruit and Flash can be read on it’s own. Are you ready for this sexy Farmboy to steal your heart just like he does Kai’s?
