FORMAT: Audio
Olu has lost a part of himself after a gross betrayal of trust, and it is impacting his desire for intimacy in the very worst way. His behaviour is growing more aggressive, unpredictable, and self-sabotaging as he lashes out over the loss of something so integral to his being. The libido is there, but a disconnect between brain and body turns every opportunity into a non-starter, leaving him functionally asexual.

This is a mlm romance, which I didn't know because I only picked it up because I like this author, but the book was really pretty. I wanna say Griffin is in the autism spectrum, the same way the author is but I could definitely be wrong. I really liked the characters and how they engage with each other and their friends, and how they develop and come to their own realizations.
