Summary: For some, acceptance feels like an impossible dream—Even of themselves. . . Growing up in a military family and drowning in his parents’ broken promises, Ryver Nelson finds himself stuck in small-town Missouri for his senior year of high school.

That is until he meets Jorrin Turner, the hot quarterback with a heart of gold and a sinful body. The closer Ryver gets to Jorrin, the harder it is to navigate a homophobic father, small-minded classmates, relentless hormonal urges, and the desperate need just to be himself.
