He’s bottled his previous two attempts at confirming his suspicions – but on his third visit to a London gay club, a quick hook-up with the most beautiful man he’s ever seen tells him everything he needs to know, and he calls off his wedding the next day. Jay Sorrentino has been questioning his sexuality for quite a while now, but with his wedding rapidly approaching he decides he needs to finally get some answers. It’s warm, funny, poignant and beautifully written, and the performance by new-to-me narrator Richard Stranks is a perfect fit. Fearne Hill’s To Hold a Hidden Pearl is a lovely, character-driven contemporary romance featuring an eccentric grief-stricken earl and a big-hearted regular bloke who, in the time-honoured way of romance novels, hook-up one night only to discover, a week later, that they’re going to be working together.
