520    Three Black gay millennial men look for love, friendship, 
       and professional success in the Motor City in this 
       hilarious and touching debut novel.    Suddenly jobless 
       and single after a devastating layoff and a breakup with 
       his cheating ex, advertising copywriter Dominick Gibson 
       flees his life in Hell’s Kitchen for a fresh start 
       in his hometown of Detroit. He’s got one objective&
       mdash;exit the shallow dating pool ASAP and get married by
       thirty-five—and the deadline’s approaching 
       fast.    Meanwhile, Dom’s best friend, Troy Clements,
       an idealistic teacher who never left Michigan, finds 
       himself at odds with all the men in his life: a troubled 
       boyfriend he’s desperate to hold onto, a perpetually
       dissatisfied father, and his other friend, Remy Patton. 
       Remy, a rags-to-riches real estate agent known as 
       andamp;ldquo;Mr. Detroit,” has his own problems&
       mdash;namely choosing between making it work with a long-
       distance lover or settling for a local Mr. Right Now who&
       rsquo;s not quite Mr. Right. And when a high-stakes real 
       estate deal threatens to blow up his friendship with Troy,
       the three men must figure out how to navigate the pitfalls
       of friendship and a city that seems to be changing 
       overnight.   Full of unforgettable characters,  Boys Come 
       First  is about the trials and tribulations of real 
       friendship, but also about the highlights and hiccups&
       mdash;late nights at the wine bar, awkward Grindr hookups,
       workplace microaggressions, situationships, frenemies, 
       family drama, and of course, the group chat—that 
       define Black, gay, millennial life in today’s 
       Detroit.
