Bachelor Kisses, Nick Earls , single work novel humour

'Jon, Rick and Jen are in their mid-twenties and share a house in Brisbane. Together they share food rituals, sporadic cocktail nights and the quest for love. Rick seems destined to long, lonely nights beneath his Porky Pig doona. Jen consumes men like chocolate bars. And Jon gets lucky in a way he's never expected - more women than he knows how to handle. A young doctor with grand plans for the hormone of darkness, he finds his life is spiralling way out of control.
'Bachelor Kisses is the mess Jon Marshall makes of his life when it stops making sense. It's the story of one man's hilarious search for meaning: a chaotic comedy of misjudgements, misinformation and misguided intimacy.' (Publication summary)

Perfect Skin, Nick Earls , single work novel
In this sequel to the bestselling Bachelor Kisses, Jon Marshall has come a long way since his bachelor days.

In a post-Duran Duran world, Jon is a laser-wielding skin specialist who drives a BMW, owns his own home, and falls prey to the vicissitudes of e-mail dating. But life hasn't taken the path he guessed it would back in his twenties, and he now faces up to being the lone parent of a baby girl, the Bean. Throw in a new running buddy--a woman with an accident-prone cat--and watch Jon's world spiral out of control. (Source: Trove)
