Summary

Two bisexual exes, one unforgettably hot summer . . .

In #1 New York Times-bestselling author Casey McQuiston's latest romantic comedy, two bisexual exes accidentally book the same European food and wine tour and challenge each other to a hookup competition to prove they're over each other - except they're definitely not.

Theo and Kit have been childhood best friends, crushes, lovers and, after a brutal breakup four years ago, estranged exes.

It’s not until Theo and Kit are trapped on board a tour bus that they discover that they’ve each had the same idea: to take their dream European food and wine tour – alone. And now they’re stuck with each other for three weeks of the most romantic sights and sensuous flavours of France, Spain, and Italy. But it’ll be fine. They’re absolutely over each other.

So, when Theo suggests a friendly wager to see who can sleep with their hot Italian tour guide first, Kit is game. In fact, why stop there? Why not a full-on European hookup competition?

But sometimes a taste of everything only makes you crave what you can’t have.

'The summer's best romance novel.' Rolling Stone

'Spicy, sexy and absolutely delicious.' People

'Move over "hot girl summer" – "hot bisexual summer" is ready for its moment and Casey McQuiston’s new novel The Pairing is here to usher it in.' USA Today

Critic reviews

Fresh, funny, exhilarating and outrageously sexy, Casey McQuiston is unparalleled in writing queer rom coms with heart, warmth and wit. (Laura Kay, bestselling author of The Split)
McQuiston’s horniest romcom yet! Greedy bisexuals rejoice – even the most hedonistic readers will be full from The Pairing's abundance of fine wine, food, and sexual promiscuity. (Lily Lindon, bestselling author of Double Booked)

a rich, decadent story

really enjoyed the story of this book but I struggled with this audio recording. I enjoyed the narration if this character but I could let get on with the kit narrator at all. it was a real shame as I was invested in the story and then really started to not enjoy it after POV change. maybe just me. the story however is excellent, I think this will be a book read for me in the future rather than an audiobook listen.

Swoon - romance food and love

So romantic, depth of characters was so interesting and enjoyable to follow.

Spicy scenes were romantic and erotic and well written.
