I admit, I was hesitant to pick up this story. I had encounters with Transgender stories before and they pretty much put me off the subject for a long time.Having read pretty much everything else published by the author, I decided to give it a go, and was rewarded with a wonderful story.***Spoiler Alert***Lexi (Alexander) doesn't hide her choice to live as a female after leaving her disapproving family home, but she isn't wearing it openly on her sleeve either, due to still existing prejudice against transgender people.When John lands at her feet (literally), the friendship soon grows and feelings develop, but can Lexi trust them or will her fear prevent her from finding love?What I like about the story is the fact that it doesn't need things like a damaged childhood, or any kind of violence, to work perfectly. It gives the reader a rare inside view into the daily struggles of transgender people everywhere and as such can actually be classified as a learning experience.
