The Missing Butterfly by Megan Derr

The Missing Butterfly

1/5. DNF. M/M about this guy who wanted to be a rock star before he had to raise his siblings instead, and this other guy who was in the foster care system but then inherited millions, like you do, but he still works a pointless office job he doesn’t like, because otherwise how would the author have him hitting on his employee?

Admittedly, I am on pace to bill 75 hours this week, so my usually low bullshit tolerance has hit zero bullshit tolerance. I wanted something pleasant to skim on my commute. Instead I got one dude paying people off to create a scenario where his boyfriend will be forced by circumstance to do a thing he said he didn’t want to do oh but it’s for his own good he’ll be grateful in the end.

Fuck. Off.
