Overview
Two bisexual exes, one unforgettably hot summer . . . In The Pairing, bestselling author Casey McQuiston's 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

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 <i>The Split</i> Decadent, rich and oh-so-vivid, McQuiston’s artistry is one to behold on your own sunny travels. * Daily Mail * A big, beautiful, extremely bisexual European romp * Vogue * McQuiston is back with another irresistible, inclusive romance * Cosmopolitan UK * There was a time when you couldn’t get on the tube without seeing a copy of Red, White & Royal Blue, and we reckon the same thing is going to happen with Casey McQuiston’s newest romantic queer comedy The Pairing. * Glamour UK * 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 <i>Double Booked</i> As charming as Red, White & Royal Blue, but far hornier, and peppered with such sharp, intricate details of Europe’s very best facets – salt air, crisp wine, velvety gelato – that readers will have to engage maximum restraint not to book a late summer trip. * Pink News *
