My Neighbor Was A Porn Star

Alex thought he was moving into a regular old San Francisco apartment building. Tiny elevator, strange neighbors, thin walls, questionable plumbing - the usual city charm. Then he met Jhon, the laid-back white guy down the hall with stoner energy, decent looks, and one very unexpected past. His neighbor used to be a porn star. For Alex, a gay man with a weakness for beautiful disasters and questionable thirst traps, the discovery should have been simple gossip. Instead, it turns his whole building into a ridiculous hunt for answers, secrets, old videos, awkward elevator rides, late-night theories, and one very large dog who seems to know more than anyone else. At the center of the chaos is Lupe, the older Latina neighbor who has seen everything, heard everything, and has absolutely no intention of minding her business. She knows the building, she knows the tenants, and she definitely knows when somebody's past is louder than their present. Set inside an old Russian Hill building in San Francisco, My Neighbor Was a Porn Star is a darkly funny, character-driven novel about gay curiosity, city gossip, strange friendships, aging apartments, nosy neighbors, and the ridiculous ways people's pasts can follow them home. Campy, messy, heartfelt, and full of old San Francisco attitude, this is a story for anyone who has ever gone looking for a little harmless eye candy and accidentally found a whole neighborhood mystery instead.
