About this ebook

Jonah Gilchrist lives a double life. On the internet, he's a fashion-blogging Tumblr celebrity. In the real world, though, being an awkward gay virgin isn't as cute and endearing as it is online — it's a target on his back. After years of being bullied, Jonah's determined to start afresh at college, but it's hard to remake yourself when you're sharing classes with your ill-fated junior high crush.

Sebastian Rose, with his easy-going manner and great sense of humor, was one of the most popular guys in junior high. He was also one of Jonah's only defenders. Too bad Jonah knows Sebastian's kindness was only pity.

Bumping into each other after all these years makes it seem like the universe itself wants Jonah to have a second chance at his first love. But how can he ever hope to reinvent himself when Sebastian's presence pulls him further into his past? Then again, maybe moving forward doesn't have to mean leaving the best part of your past behind.

Querky and thoroughly well-written story, I liked this a lot. It is romantic, contemporary and edgy. I particularly like the way that the inner thought processes of the characters are immediately accessible. Looking forward to reading more from this author.

About the author

Heidi Belleau was born and raised in small town New Brunswick, Canada. She now lives in the rugged oil-patch frontier of Northern BC with her husband, an Irish ex-pat whose long work hours in the trades leave her plenty of quiet time to write. She has a degree in history from Simon Fraser University with a concentration in British and Irish studies; much of her work centred on popular culture, oral folklore, and sexuality, but she was known to perplex her professors with unironic papers on the historical roots of modern romance novel tropes. (Ask her about Highlanders!) When not writing, you might catch her trying to explain British television to her newborn daughter or standing in line at the local coffee shop, waiting on her caramel macchiato.
