Eighteen and desperate for work, Jake's prospects seem dire. His siblings have scattered, leaving him and his overbearing mom in their small-minded town. A chance encounter lands Jake a job, along with his first, deeply confusing attraction to another man.

Ashton's determined to make the best of his homecoming: he's sure he can sell menswear in a place where work overalls are the height of fashion. The confident, ambitious 25-year-old throws Jake's emotions into turmoil, only Ashton has skeletons, too. Haunted by his last breakup, and as wary of their age gap as he is of Jake's inexperience, the battle of head versus heart has never been more fierce.

A glimpse beyond his humdrum life puts Jake on a crash course with the realities of being an openly gay man. Running away seems tempting, but some responsibilities can't be avoided. Can a relationship with Ashton coexist with the expectations of Jake's community, or would it have been better had he never realized his true desires?

"No Experience Necessary" is a high-heat, age gap workplace m/m romance, intended for adult readers.
