Summary: Like any man Gerard watches porn, but his obsession with popular gay pornstar Frank Iero has left him unable to commit to a relationship since he was a teenager. When he finally meets his idol he wishes he could seduce him, never imagining it could bring up past ghosts and fears that he tried so hard to erase.

So rosielovesmcr recommend this story to me, and even though it isn't my favorite thing I have ever read, I think it is worthy of going on this list.

I have a thing for Porn Star AU's and this one was actually really cute, but I found the smut kind of lacking...like there was a lot of it, but it was too clinical for my tastes. The plot more than made up for it though, and it is definitely worth reading.

So like the summary says, Frank is a famous porn star and Gerard is basically his biggest fan boy. Frank really likes Gerard because he seems different than all the other men he has met before. They end up dating, and there is a lot of drama and cute moments, and it is an all around good book.

I love the way the author wrote their personalities. Gerard is ridiculously shy and Frank has a temper, but they work together so perfectly and the whole story made me really happy and smiley.

This story is also on Wattpad somewhere, but it is one of those accounts that just post stories they like, not their own work, and since a lot of this is smutty, you have to be following them to read the whole thing, and I don't like to follow people who don't post original work, so I chose to read it on AO3.
