A story that feels painfully real
"I haven’t even finished all the available chapters yet, but I already felt like I had to leave a review because this story truly deserves it. From the very beginning, this book pulled me in so deeply. The atmosphere is incredibly captivating, emotional, and beautifully written. There is something about Mae’s writing that feels so vivid and heartfelt, almost like you can feel every emotion the characters are going through. Jamie feels so real to me. The way his emotions, his thoughts, his fears, and his relationships are written makes it so easy to connect with him. I also absolutely love his family and the warmth they bring into the story. The characters don’t feel flat or distant at all — they feel like real people with real pain, real love, and real hearts. What I love most is how deeply emotional this story is without ever feeling forced. It has such a strong, honest atmosphere, and every chapter makes me want to keep reading. The writing is beautiful, profound, and so full of feeling. I don’t usually read many LGBTQ+ stories, but this one completely caught me off guard in the best way. It might honestly be one of the most beautiful and emotional stories in this genre that I have read so far. Mae, you created something truly special here. This story feels real, heartfelt, and unforgettable. I love it so much already, and I can’t wait to continue reading. ❤️"
Part 2 when ?
"This story was captivating, and its gradual development made it all the more enjoyable. I hope there will be a sequel. I highly recommend this story to anyone who appreciates LGBT+ narratives. The author keeps us on the edge of our seats from beginning to end; there's not a dull moment!"
When 'Like' turns into Love!
"Seventeen-year-old Jamie Montgomery appears to have it all: good looks, athletic talent, a Division I football scholarship within reach, and the admiration of everyone at school. But beneath his carefully crafted image as the school’s “Golden Boy,” Jamie is struggling with sexual feelings he doesn’t fully understand. Enter Louis, a strikingly handsome French exchange student, who visits Jamie's home for the school year. Though nervous about leaving Paris behind, Louis is immediately captivated by the handsome football star, while Jamie finds himself equally enchanted by Louis’s soft French accent, delicate features, and quiet charm. As lingering stares, blushing cheeks, and accidental touches spark an instant connection, both boys begin to wonder if fate has brought them together for more than just an exchange program. Whew! Oh the heat! I gotta tell you I love this novel. It is a sweet story about the beginning of sexual interest between two boys who are initially shy but quickly accept their passion for one another. Mae Miller (the author) creates immediate chemistry between Jamie and Louis, making their first meeting feel both sweet and believable and hot too. I admit I enjoyed some of the scenes even more than I should have. I also appreciated how Mae avoided the usual stereotypes of the family rejecting the individual because of their homosexuality. A fun read. And a heated one too! 🔥 "
This was so freaking good.
"I don't think I've ever read something with such depth of emotion. Something that so accurately captures the complicated emotions of this hormone fueled time. Jamie is just perfect. I can literally feel the weight of expectation pressing down on him. So wonderfully protective if Lou ❤️ Louis is cool as a cucumber, nobody gets to him except for Jamie. I was hooked from the first chapter. I will be personally offended if more chapters do not materialise. Love love love! "
