Summer, 2003. An easygoing teen skateboarder and his insensitive best friend must navigate their changing friendship when a flirty boy comes between them. ***** Sixteen-year-old Matteo is a simple dude. It's 2003, his brother is fighting in Afghanistan, and his best friend Logan is obsessed with gay jokes, but Matt doesn't like to worry. He just wants to film his skateboard video. Then cute emo boy Quinn applies to work at the skate shop with Matt. Being friends with clever, flirty Quinn is like learning a new skateboard trick: a little bit intimidating but totally (probably) worth the challenge. Now Logan hates Quinn, there's money going missing at the shop, and Matt can't seem to figure out if Quinn might possibly, maybe, want to kiss him back. This summer just got a lot more complicated. ***** *featured in LGBTQ+'s "BxB Teen Fiction", LY's "Love Your Identity", and WattpadNaNoWriMo's "2019 Top Picks" lists* Complete at 59k words.

[A VERY Slow Burn, BXB Romance] Adrian Murphy isn't out yet, and he doesn't plan to be. That doesn't stop his mysterious friendship with the boy with green eyes to throw a wrench into those plans. ~ 16-year-old Adrian Murphy is just trying to survive being in the closet with a father who most likely won't understand him. Fumbling through the last three years of high school is his plan - lay low, quietly suffer at the hands of his bullies, and don't come out. College will be better. Maybe he'll come out then. That is, until he suddenly finds himself in the company of the mysterious teenager with striking green eyes. Adrian hadn't planned on striking up a strange friendship with him, yet, as he confides in the green-eyed boy, a surprise confession, and fighting back starts his high school plans falling apart. Yet the boy with green eyes is there. Always there, and Adrian can't help himself but fall in love with him, stumbling with him on a whirlwind of self-discovery, the difficulties of coming out, fumbling with first loves, and a lack of naïveté that only Adrian possesses.

Forced to share his bed with an attractive stranger, Ash Jamieson suddenly finds himself confronted with feelings he thought he'd repressed. ***** Riddled with adolescent angst, lavished with profanity, and adorned with more cheese than your favourite take-out pizza, Top and Tail chronicles the life of Ash Jamieson as he haphazardly navigates his way through malicious schoolmates, whackjob teachers, disillusioned parents, imbecilic athletes, audacious girls, and of course, his most pressing problem: the subdued pretty-boy that has suddenly invaded every aspect of his life.
