Brian
You’ll make it out of here, Brian. I swear.
I had everything—school quarterback, popular with girls, and my dad was proud of me. I told myself it didn’t matter no one knew the real me. And then I nearly died. Landon saved my life. He’s the bravest guy I know. He came out a few years ago, proud and fierce, and he ran into gunfire to help others. Me, I’m a mess. Can’t even stand to be in a room with the curtains open. But here’s the thing about losing it all: You get a chance to start over and be someone new. Only how can I move on when the two shooters who attacked our school were never caught? And why do I feel like I’m still in the crosshairs?

Landon
Will you kiss me?
When I came across Brian Marshall,the hottest guy in school, dying on the cafeteria floor, I did what anyone would do. I tried to save him. His request surprised me, but I figured he needed comfort, so I kissed him on the forehead. When he survived and came back to school, he was broken in body and mind. He still needed me, and soon we were unlikely besties. But what I saw at school that day woke me up. I want to demand action on gun control, lead protests, raise my fist. I’ll tear the world down if I have to. And if I can get the man of my dreams and save the world at the same time? I’ll take it. Only I didn’t understand that the horror at Jefferson Waller High wasn’t over.




4 1/2 out of 5 stars

Oh my emotions. This book tore them up. The book deals with a very touchy subject and will lead to some heavy emotions, but I thought it was well done and the characters were all ones I wanted to learn more about and really get in their heads!

Brian is the quintessential football quarterback that all the girls want. The guy that everyone knows and wants to be friends with. Landon is the out and proud gay kid, the one that will stand up for those who need a little boost and also happens to have a crush on Brian - though he would NEVER think anything could come of it! A tragedy brings the two together and their connection is so deep that it seems impenetrable.

Though this story isn’t easy to read nor is it strictly a romance, it was definitely worth the time it took me to read and one I would highly recommend. I still (a week after finishing) have strong emotions tied to this book and these characters and can’t believe all that they went through and only hope they are having their HEA out there in the fictional world somewhere.
