Shawn Wesley Ballenger is an Arkansas native. When not writing, he enjoys records, restoring old electronics, hiking and geeking out over classic Doctor Who. A proud nerd since 1983.
It’s 1973 and it seems like Shawn and Will—cousins that look so similar they could be twins—are on top of the world. That high is shattered when tragedy strikes and secrets unravel, but it’s love that will bring them back to peace, if only they can trust in love again.
1973 is a time of social change. Are 15-year-old Shawn Stuart and his best friend Brad ready to accept something that goes deeper than friendship, or will they follow in the path that society expects them to?
