The Invisible Roommate - by Timothy Janovsky (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

The Invisible Man meets Love is Blind in this autumnal love story.

Gerard Wells loves music but hates fame --not ideal when he's the youngest member of the chart-topping band of brothers, We the Wells. Cracking under the spotlight, Gerard runs away to a small, remote island in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay. There, he goes by "James" and takes up residence in a crumbling Victorian house on the island's shrinking shoreline. Little does he know, he's not the studio apartment's only inhabitant...

Mysterious and moody Emory Griffin never planned to be a test subject for his own groundbreaking invisibility research. He also never planned on sharing a room with a world-famous pop star, but needs must when you're an unemployed graduate school drop-out who's wanted by the local police.

With nowhere else to turn, the unlikely pair agree to be temporary roommates. Their forced proximity and vulnerability lead to an unexpected romantic spark. As Halloween approaches, their secrets and feelings grow harder to keep hidden, testing the strength of their newfound bond. Could this be a love that neither of them saw coming or an experiment set to go horribly wrong?
