Vincible: A New Adult Comedy by Jay Jameston

Breakups are hard, but going viral during your meltdown is alarmingly easy.

Jake Durham just got dumped, humiliated online, and shoved back into the dating pool with absolutely no idea what he’s doing. Meanwhile, his ex racks up likes and glow-up photos across social media.

Desperate for closure, or at least a distraction, Jake plunges headfirst into dating apps, ill-advised hookups, and a series of HR “misunderstandings” that spiral wildly out of control. Each swipe, text, and morning-after pushes him deeper into post-breakup purgatory and closer to torching his job, his reputation, and what little self-respect he has left.

As public embarrassments pile up, Jake stumbles into a dangerously intoxicating situationship that offers nothing but sparks and zero emotional safety. He soon finds himself on a collision course with a very public reckoning and a very private realization about who he is when no one’s watching.

Can Jake find closure, or even his dignity?
Or is he destined for a lifetime of people rightfully swiping left?

If you love cringe comedy with heart, Vincible is a laugh-out-loud novel about heartbreak, modern dating, and the messy middle of growing up while pretending you’re “fine.”

Perfect for fans of Forgetting Sarah Marshall, High Fidelity, Fleabag, and anyone who has ever swiped right on disaster and called it personal growth.
