Review: An okay attempt at gay YA
Rating: 3 out of 5

2.5/5 starsLuke and Randall are foster brothers and best friends. The attraction is there from the start for Luke, it takes Ran a little longer to admit it. Ran promises not only himself, but his foster parents that nothing is going on between them when they learn he’s gay. They’ve always treated him like family, but since learning of his sexuality, they are more rigid than they use to be. But not Luke, he ever present as a friend hoping to become more.Underneath everything this was a cute coming of age and finding your true love at a young age story. But sadly there were many issues I had that made the book less enjoyable for me. Too much going on in so few pages, the author really should have tried to make this a full length novel. That complete 360 degree turn that Luke’s parents did hit me like whiplash. It did not fit with the story at all. A few grammatical errors sprinkled here and there that stood out more with the other issues.Luke and Ran were absolutely adorable though, and the slightly elusive sex for them really worked well for this storyline. If you’re looking for something young and cute you may enjoy this one.
