Publisher's Summary:
One thing Liam Turner knows for sure is that he's not gay - after all, his father makes it very clear hell allow no son of his to be gay. And Liam believes it, until a chance meeting with James "Jay" Bell turns Liams world upside-down. Jay is vivacious and unabashedly gay - from the tips of his bleached hair to the ends of his polished nails. With a flair for fashion, overreaction, and an inability to cork his verbal diarrhea, drama queen Jay must have a screw loose.
An accident as a teenager left Liam with a limp and a fear of driving. He cant play football anymore either, and that makes him feel like less of a man. But thats no reason to question his sexuality... unless the accident broke something else inside him. When being with Jay causes Liams protective instincts to emerge, Liam starts to believe all he's known in life has been a convenient lie. From intolerance to confrontations, Liam must learn to overcome his fears - and his father - before he can accept his sexuality and truly love Jay.
Members Reviews:
Cute story
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, it is an Aussie book, so expect the narration to go with that, but very sweet book about family, coming out, and being accepted.

Jay!
What about Dave Gilliess performance did you like?
His voice was perfect for the characters
Who was the most memorable character of Loving Jay and why?
Jay!
This is a great little love story
What did you love best about Loving Jay?
The fun descriptions of how J behaved and his personality. The way he and Liam interact and the protectiveness awakened in Liam are too fun.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Loving Jay?
The bashing of J and Liams' reaction were very touching. The you tube video bit caused tears in my eyes.
Which scene was your favorite?
My favorite scene was when Liam comforted J in the kitchen after his grandma passed.
Who was the most memorable character of Loving Jay and why?
Jay himself was the most memorable character. He is a fun person who would be great to have around.
Any additional comments?
In the past I have returned a book read by this narrator. He was awful on that one. Here he is very good. If you too have heard his reading of Tigerland and been put off him, give this book a chance. Where that one had little differentiation between the different characters this one is easy to tell which character is talking.
British Accent!
Where does Loving Jay rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?
What's not to love ? A shy closeted former football player pursuit of an openly gay man. This book was funny, honest,and purely a special book. I was glad to use a credit on this one.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Loving Jay?
When Jay told the story on how he missed the train on purpose to just talk to Liam.
Have you listened to any of Dave Gilliess other performances before? How does this one compare?
I loved his accent and he made funny passages exciting.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Liam outing himself accidently and didn't care.
Any additional comments?
Would love to find out what Liam brother and Jays sister get into. I hope theirs a novella. Or book 2. Imagine Jay with kids and pets.
Great romance / coming out story.
This was a great story with a British accent. I thought it dealt well around the issues of a young man realizing he was gay.
