SYNOPSIS:
Senior year is almost over, and Jamie Peterson has a big problem. Not college—that’s all set. Not prom—he’ll find a date somehow. No, it’s the worst problem of all: he’s fallen for his best friend.

As much as Jamie tries to keep it under wraps, everyone seems to know where his affections lie, and the giggling girls in art class are determined to help Jamie get together with Mason. But Jamie isn’t sure if that’s what he wants—because as much as Jamie would like to come clean to Mason, what if the truth ruins everything? What if there are no more road trips, taco dinners, or movie nights? Does he dare risk a childhood friendship for romance?

WHY SHOULD YOU CHECK IT OUT?
Continuing on a good trend of new LGBT contemporary romances hitting the shelves this summer, this one is sure to be super cute—in the summer movie kind of way, even. We can just see the light flick that would come of it, complete with gaggle of match-making girl friends.

While the cover isn’t terribly eye-catching, the colors are nice and the composition is cute. It doesn’t scream out the protagonist’s gender or sexuality–which is could go either way for finding its audience.

This is author Sarah Tregay’s sophomore YA offering, after romance-in-verse “Love and Leftovers”. Will she repeat her earlier success with a bromance? You’ll have to read to find out!

EARLY REVIEWS SAY…
The portrait of a half-in, half-out gay teen seen as confident by everyone but himself is touching… A sweet, quasi–coming-out love story with a bass line tailored for art and design fanatics. (Kirkus Reviews)

The school’s factions are refreshingly nuanced… The fact that even with supportive adults, encouraging friends, and a gay-straight alliance, coming out can be a daunting prospect will make this story resonate with readers. (Publishers Weekly)
