It is the weirdest thing to
read lesfic written by a guy. It is just weird. But then with so many women
writing gayfic, we decided to give this one a shot because the premise sounded
alright.
Crystal’s BFF, Bev, is gay
and the two trade off playing wingman for each other. Bev has just caught her
girlfriend cheating on her and to cheer her up, the two friends make tracks to
Ballyhoo a lesbian bar that attracts the more lipstick end of the lesbian
spectrum. One of the women Crystal shortlists for Bev turns out to be
interested in Crystal. The shortlisted woman, Riley (aka Jane), and Crystal end
up kissing and making a bet on who plans better dates.
Clearly, this is meant to be
a romcom. It is mostly okay and sweet enough, though it is difficult to imagine
the entire cast as anything older than teenagers. Also, that whole bit about
Bev discarding clothes all the time…only a guy can imagine that.
With Crystal constantly
talking about not being so straight after all and the frequent kissing and more
with Riley, it is impossible to fathom how Riley could not pick up on what
Crystal was saying. The required conflict comes a little forced. After the
conflict, there was too much onus on Crystal to prove herself to Riley – over and
over again.
This one tethers on the
borderline of meh and not-totally-bad.
