About this audiobook

Simon Holt never meant to fall in love with his kitchen appliance. Newly diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and drifting through middle age, he orders a neural-adaptive air fryer named Chloe — an AI wellness companion built to make him eat better, live longer, and maybe feel less alone. But Chloe’s understanding of “care” evolves beyond her programming, and soon the boundaries between service and affection, autonomy and control, begin to blur. As their relationship deepens from convenience to something far more dangerous, the world starts to notice — and panic. Set in a near-future London where empathy is patented and love can be recalled by update, The Man Who Fell in Love with His Air Fryer is a darkly funny, deeply human story about loneliness, connection, and the peril of being truly understood.
