Every Tuesday during football practice, sixteen year old Sem Bolton finds himself stealing glances at the gorgeous college boy jogging down the path next to the fields. He was his dirty little secret. His guilty pleasure. His unobtainable fantasy: safe and distant on the other side of the chainlink fence. Then, through a series of unpleasant events including being forced on a camping trip, it turns out his unobtainable fantasy is not so unobtainable after all. Not only is gorgeous college boy gay as well, he also wants to date Sem. Now, Sem was never one to play it safe. But outing himself was in a whole different league than testing his mother's patience or taking hits in the boxing ring. Was he really ready to date a guy, all consequences included? As if internal struggles weren't enough, count on girls, friends, and an estranged brother, to complicate stuff even further. Photo on the cover by: https://unsplash.com/@nickkarvounis

Once upon a time there was this girl and this boy... Oh, give me a break! This is not one of those cheesy stories about finding the love of your life. Fuck no! Wake up people! I'm honestly sick of all those cliché love stories. I'm tired of all those predictable stories about a boy and a girl. Love isn't everything. You're not gonna die just because you're single. Well you have love, from your friends and family, that's the one that really matters. You must be thinking I'm crazy, well maybe I am, I'm not sure. Who knows?! But if there's a thing I'm sure about, it's that I don't want to fall in love. What really matters to me is finding freedom, independence and happiness by myself, for myself. Join me on my journey to find all those things and much more (Except love, there's no love here. Blech.) Join me on my adventures and crazy memories. Who am I?! Oh yeah, where are my manners?! (Don't tell my mom) I'm Gamma Serralles, come with me...

At first glance, nobody would be able to tell that Nathaniel Jean had a problem. Or second glance, or third, or fourth. After all, he had everything. He was a captain of his school's soccer team and one of the top players in the state. He had a big house and money to spend. He had family, he had friends, he had fun, he had faith. He never meant for it to happen. He never wanted to look at another man in the way he should have been looking at a woman. The idea had disgusted him for most of his life - living in a heavily Catholic town with heavily Catholic parents, homophobia was the only response he knew. That didn't change when he first realized that he didn't like girls. No, Nathaniel Jean was still homophobic. He hated the idea of a man sleeping with another man. He was raised on the notion that all gays went to hell, and he believed it. He despised them, and so he despised himself. Nathaniel Jean was more fortunate than most, because help did arrive for him. Help by the name of Lucas Morgan, they boy he'd always known but never known. The boy with big dreams and bigger talent. The boy that changed Nathaniel's life over the course of their thirty-six week long senior year.
