A very touching story with a message of hope.Kasen is a young man who doesn't struggle with his identity, but with other's acceptance.  He know's he is different when it comes to his sexuality.  He also knows the small town he lives in, may not accept who he is.Rowan moves to Chartreuse to start a new life after a breakup in his relationship.  He is now the town's Vet.  While walking his dog one morning, he meets Kasen.  A young man who is shy, and not very talkative.  Rowan also listens to the towns radio station.  There he listens to Cool Kasey, the DJ at the station.  Rowan really enjoys listening to Kasey. After offering to bring Kasey some dinner over, he finds Kasen at the station, as Kasey.  There, it all begins.  Rowan takes Kasen out of town for an early breakfast.  Just a small Waffle House, but a first for Kasen.  Rowan and Kasen's journey begins there.  Hidden thoughts and actions slowly begin between the two.This was a very touching story.  Very well written and put together nicely.  I don't usually read these kind of stories, but Tonya is my friend.  I'd read anything she has written.  Although this type of book was different for me, I learned so much about the lifestyle of two men who are attracted to each other, and the struggles they go through, just to be together.  If you're looking for hardcore sex scenes, you might want to chose a different book.  This is about tender exploring, finding someone you can be comfortable with, slowly receive feelings for, and experiencing what love feels like.  For the first time.  I loved this book and hope to read on about Rowan and Kasen's journey together.
