About this ebook
Steven McKinnon is in a rut. He’s tired of being a burden to his friends. He feels like life is passing him by. Nothing is going his way.
When a friend convinces him to try speed dating, things start to look up… initially. As soon as Bachelorette Number One discovers that he’s a virgin, she unceremoniously dumps him. What follows is a quest across Europe in search of happiness, companionship, and an answer to the age-old question: Why is sex such a big deal?
But much like everything else in Steven’s life, things don’t go as planned. Soon, he discovers the dark side of putting himself out there. Brash-talking strippers, treacherous friendships and an unexpected encounter with the police leave him wondering if his old, boring, solo life was really so bad after all.
Told with painful honesty, raw emotion, British humour and wit, Boldly Going Nowhere is the true story of what happens when one man takes a stand against his own insecurities and societal pressures — and somehow manages to find himself in the process.
