“I guess I always figured coming out was something you did for friends and family, and maybe it is, but it’s personal too, you know? The person I was last night is new. I wanna get to know him.”

I had two things on my list when I arrived in Los Angeles. One, track down Henry Bennington, the uncle and guardian of my little brother’s best friend, and tell him to get his ass back to Washington. He needed to do something about his nephew, who was turning into a douchebag. And two, figure out just how non-straight I was. For the past two years, I’d had all these fantasies, and now was the time to explore them, far away from my sleepy little town. 

Nowhere on this list did it say, “Get Ty’s uncle into bed and fall for him.” I wasn’t supposed to fall in love with another city either. But between brunch, making new friends, and discovering the man I was meant to be, I lost sight of the future that had once seemed pretty damn vivid. How the hell was I supposed to merge my old life and who I used to be with the new dreams Los Angeles and Henry had awakened in me?

Review : Zach goes to California to get his brothers best friend Ty's uncle to help him cause Ty is turning into a dick. Ty lost his parents young and is being raised by his grandparents who are bigots and disowned Henry . Zach is looking to experiment cause he doesnt think he is straight and Henry is catching his eye and after one night at a bar and lots of drinking and having fun they end up kissing . I love zach and Henry together even though there is an age difference it shouldn't matter cause how they feel about each other matters . Ty finally comes out and Henry and him finally talk slash fight . Zach has to leave to go home but Henry is like oh it's ok if you want to sleep with someone else and that makes zach mad I would be to I think it was dickish of Henry. Zach ends up getting beat up by some homophobic idiots Henry is there for him and zach ends up getting a modeling job loved this book.

Quotes :Can I come out to anyone, or am I gonna be the last to know I’m gay?”


What are your plans for the day?” Martin asked. With a wave of his hand, he added, “Other than screwing each other’s brains out.

that, I froze. Henry grew still too, and Martin rolled his eyes. “Good God, we share a wall, Henry.”


I don’t mean to be a dick, Zach, but…” He shifted in his seat, hesitant. “I kinda already assumed you were queer. Or gay, sorry.” My eyebrows shot up. “The fuck? Is there a sign on my forehead or something?” “No, but there’s gay porn on your computer at home,” he replied frankly
