Twenty-eight-year-old Oryn Patterson isn't like other people. Being an extremely shy social introvert is only part of the problem. Oryn has dissociative identity disorder. He may look like a normal man on the outside, but spend five minutes with him, and his daily struggles begin to show.
Oryn shares his life and headspace with five distinctively different alters. Reed, a protective, very straight jock. Cohen, a flamboyantly gay 19-year-old who is a social butterfly. Cove, a self-destructive terror, whose past haunts him. Theo, an asexual man of little emotion, whose focus is on maintaining order. And Rain, a five-year-old child whose only concern is Batman.
Vaughn Sinclair is stuck in a rut. When his job doesn't offer the same thrill it once did, he decides it's time to mix-up his stagnant, boring routine. Little does he know, the man he meets during an impromptu decision to return to college is anything but ordinary.
Vaughn's heart defies logic, and he finds himself falling in love with this strange new man. But how can you love someone who isn't always themself? It may not be easy, but Vaughn is determined to try.

Adam Gold's narration is award-worthy. Perfectly paced, wonderfully nuanced and both vulnerable and strong at the same time. I listened to Love Me Whole feeling wholeheartedly that the narrator *got* this story and understood these characters at a molecular level.
I could not recommend this story more. 5/5 stars and a whole lot of love!
If only I could give this a million stars

From a DID system’s perspective

This was a tough road story with lots of tears, but so worth it to feel this representation of DID.

It's different, and it's difficult, and it's beautiful.
This is the story of Vaugh and Oryn... an all his alters. Oryn suffers from disassociative personality disorder (DID), and he has developed five other personalities withing himself.
Vaughn is the narrator, and we see how his and Oryn's story develops. We meet all the alters through his eyes, we feel his confusion, his struggles, his guilt and his love.
It's amazing how the author manages to write the voices of all the alters in such a distinctive way, all of them an important part of the protective system built to protect Oryn from the abuse he sustained in his childhood. We are never told what happened then, Cove is the alter who holds those memories, and he will never tell. We meet all these people, and we feel different about all of them, and it's... mind-blowing.
It was really hard for me to understand Vaughn and Cohen relationship. I know it helped Oryn to feel safer, and more sure about Vaughn. And, intellectually, I understand that it wasn't exactly cheating, and yet... I really struggled through it.
And about the narration... I mostly enjoyed it. Adam Gold did a superb job giving every character a particular voice, but all the sighs and breathing... it got too much, too soon. I wish he would have done it more subtly.
Nevertheless, this is an astonishing good story. This is a new author for me, and I sure will be reading more of her books.
An extraordinarily moving story
