by Jude Sierra
Readers will savor every dip and peak of Milo and Andrew's relationship as they balance the need for safety with the necessary risk of pursuing happiness.
Moments after Milo Graham's family relocate to Cape Cod, he meets Andrew Witherell - launching a lifelong friendship built on a foundation of deep bonds, secret forts, and plans for the future. When Milo is called home from college to attend his domineering father's funeral, he and Andrew finally act on their mutual attraction. But, doubtful of his worth, Milo decides to sever all ties with his childhood friend. Circumstances send both men home again years later, and their long held feelings will not be denied. But will they have what it takes to find lasting love?
