Chapter 1

Cole Hayes was born in the small hometown of Leighton Hills, Massachusetts. He's had his best friend Amy Ray by his side since birth and now they are ready to take on their senior year. Now, in Leighton Hills, there isn't much to do or see. Sure, a town with 'Hills' in the name should be amazing, but everything is boring. Nothing special ever happens. Cole has a secret though, he's gay. In Leighton Hills, homosexuality isn't really the recommended route. Weird, considering Massachusetts was the first state to legalize gay marriage. This town is different though. If you aren't straight then you aren't really anything. But when a strange newcomer enters the area, everything changes. Maintaining the secret may not be his biggest problem.
