Not That Complicated is a 74k-word romantic comedy that just so happens to also have some dead guys in it. Because Ray and Adam have a complicated history, and starting something would be a terrible idea. He is too young for Ray, too cool for him, too beautiful for him.and for some bewildering reason, Adam is always there for him when Ray needs him the most.īut Ray's not falling for it. Luckily for Ray, the last man in the world he should be interested in has distraction on his mind, and it seems like all Ray can think about is Adam Blake. (Also, the police were kinda mean, and now everyone thinks he's a serial killer.) Ray's just a thirtysomething graphic designer with a broken heart who doesn't much like his life right now.Īnd he's already having nightmares about the whole thing, come on. If this was your classic Cotswolds murder mystery (it's not) and Ray was an amateur detective (he isn't) then when he stumbles across something unexpected under his bedroom floor, he'd investigate the hell out of it.
