The Way I See You [Book One - The Way We Find Each Other Duology]

Freddie Taylor has always believed his life was pretty simple: football, school, mates, and a future he hasn't bothered to plan. But when he's paired with the effortlessly confident and openly gay Theo Brooks in English class, something begins to shift. It's not just a distraction-it's a quiet, complicated awakening.

What begins as stolen glances becomes long conversations, shared blankets, and kisses that shake the truth loose. As Freddie starts to question everything he thought he knew about himself, Theo helps him see that love doesn't always come with easy answers. Sometimes it's found in awkward movie nights, snowed-in bookshops, and quiet walks beneath flickering streetlamps.

Set against the backdrop of London, The Way I See You is a coming-of-age boys love story about identity, family, and the terrifying, beautiful truth of falling in love for the first time.
