University is a new era for Henry Graythorn's life. He's ready to branch out from under his parents' thumb and go on new adventures. He's fantasized of those midnight road trips, raging parties, and exploring Boston until dawn.
Best of all, he can openly be who he is, a gay guy.
But years of living inside his own head and making a home out of it made him unprepared for the possible encounters he may have, including his arch nemesis from high school and a new mysterious guy who's made his intentions clear from day one.
Henry soon learns the difference between an inconvenient truth and a comfortable lie, and being who you really are comes with a price.

The one person who can make him laugh after a terrible day. The one person who somehow sees through every carefully built wall Jayden has spent years hiding behind.

And for the first time, he has to decide whether he's willing to stay the person he's always been... or become someone better. Even if it costs him everything.Complete
