Seventeen-year-old Edgar "Eddie" Benjamin is uprooted from his normal life and sent to his grandmother's house for his own safety, but what he doesn't know is that he now lives in the scopes of something darker. He tries to adjust as best he can, but something is off about the way his peers, or rather, everyone in this town, treats him. He chalks it up to homophobia-small towns are not the place for young gay men-but he soon finds that his sexuality has nothing to do with it. The real reason he feels so ostracized is a dark town secret he couldn't imagine until he experienced it.
Elliot Jensen and Elliot Fintry have a lot in common. They share the same name, the same house, the same school, oh and they hate each other but, as they will quickly learn, there is a fine line between love and hate.
