24 parts Complete MatureAdam Hixx is a cool guy. In a small Louisiana town like his, being a Christian, straight, brash delinquent with a douchebag crony and a hot girlfriend is the recipe for popularity. Life's going great for Cool Adam.
But not for Regular Adam.
Being gay and having the nerve to doubt his family's religion sparks anger in him. Rage fueled by years of abuse, both exterior and within himself. Rage that comes out in violence towards his childhood best friend, whom he wished so desperately to be with again... At least, until he came out as gay.
Love and hate battle in this heart-breaking, gut-wrenching, bittersweet story of overcoming abusive backgrounds, learning to let go, and even learning that maybe, having emotions isn't as bad as it's chalked up to seem.
Cool Adam will just have to wait and see.
