🏆Featured ×3 Revised edition available on Barnes and Noble, Apple Books, Amazon and many more retailers near you! ** 22 letters. 24 days. 1 boy. What could possibly go wrong? ************* When Leon James takes a bet to reveal his true feelings to his crush, he didn't expect a timeline to it. He also didn't expect that timeline to be in 24 days. Now with his shyness and mental health getting the best of him, he has to find a clever way to let his crush- or crushes- know how he truly feels. And what better way than writing letters to them?

Caleb never thought he'd receive a confession, let alone two in the same day. Now it's time to face his own feelings unless he wishes to lose someone who is closer to him than he originally thought.

Jack Robinson is a little more than world-crushingly-in-love with Nolan Skinner, who is well-known for being both stoic as well as intense. He knows Nolan feels the same way - but, is it enough to guarantee them working out? Jack wants a lot of things. None of them as badly as Nolan. - An entry for @lgbtq 's Song Fiction Challenge; based on "Lemon Boy" by the artist Cavetown.

At that, Oliver's eyes literally bloomed, the colour of earth freshly kissed by spring rains, a hue that promised to stir the life from dormant seeds, like all the fluorescent verdure around him actually lived within. And it took Cillian's breath away. And in that moment Cillian realised, he did have a favourite flower after all.
