Stretch Marks
Will is ready to start living the life he's dreamed of.
He's starting college.
His place on the volleyball team is set in stone.
And his dream boyfriend is only a bus ride away.
Everything is in place for him to get on with the happy ever after he's been daydreaming about for months, but life in the city isn't as idealistic as Will first imagined. With college deadlines, therapy, volunteering, volleyball, and friends, all packed into his schedule, his time with Gabriel is restricted to stolen moments, and Will quickly feels the strain of keeping the relationship a secret from his friends.
Will is determined to take hold of his happily ever after, but it becomes clear that to keep hold of that, he has to sacrifice parts of his life in exchange. Will has to figure out what it is that is truly important to him and grasp it tightly or risk losing what matters to him the most.


"I'm hooked."
- Goodreads Review

"Will’s story is a story of love, but also of friendship, family, the struggle for self-acceptance, bravery.
It’s inspiring on so many levels."
Amazon Review
There’s so much I could say about my newly found love for this book. It had well-written characters and an amazing plot that keeps you entranced. I have so many high expectations for whatever new books this author comes up with in the future.
Goodreads Review
For me, this book is mostly about love, especially about self love and love for the ones around you. Read this book if you’re gay. Read this book if you have problems in your family. Read this book if you have problems figuring yourself. Read this book anyway, it’s worth reading.
