Liam thought a summer job as a camp counselor would give him some peace to focus on his art, away from the noise of high school. But when he's paired with Ethan-the charming, confident football star-his quiet world is turned upside down. Ethan seems to have it all figured out, but beneath his carefree exterior is someone longing to be understood. As they bond over late-night talks by the lake and shared moments away from the rest of camp, Liam starts to feel something he's never let himself acknowledge before. Can Liam let down his walls and open up to the boy who's slowly stealing his heart, or will his fears keep him from something real?

"We've been best friends for fourteen years. Did you really think I wouldn't notice? I can see it... in your eyes. Your smile never reaches your eyes." -- When Aspen Ace falls, he falls hard. It's a gradual descent that happens so naturally, Aspen doesn't even recognize anything's changed until he's already neck-deep in an unrequited love for his best friend, Rafe Alvarez. Nervous and insecure, Aspen brings this new revelation to the person he trusts most-his older brother, Alex. He doesn't expect to be met with unconditional acceptance, but the reaction he receives is nightmare fodder. Regret barely scratches the surface of Aspen's emotions when his brother decides to blackmail him, but with no other option, Aspen learns to survive. Aspen can deal with the abuse as long as Alex keeps his sexuality a secret. He'll just wait it out. Aspen will graduate high school with a baseball scholarship and get the hell out of his conservative hometown... if he can endure. But he can't, and Aspen's suddenly fighting not only his brother, but the all-consuming monster in his head.
