About
"There was precious little evidence, and certainly nothing concrete, to confirm that I liked boys. I just knew that I’d fallen for him. And if he’d been a girl or a… or a frog… maybe I would have felt just the same love towards her or it."

When two friends move to a new school, they expect some change but nothing like the events that unfold over several terms.

A schoolboy crush takes hold and refuses to let go, propelling both boys towards a moment so devastating it will change their lives forever.

A gripping and moving coming-of-age novella from the author of the award-winning novel FAG and the novella Pride.
