One thing Liam Turner knows for sure is that he's not gay—after all, his father makes it very clear he'll allow no son of his to be gay. And Liam believes it, until a chance meeting with James "Jay" Bell turns Liam's world upside-down. Jay is vivacious and unabashedly gay—from the tips of his bleached hair to the ends of his polished nails. With a flair for fashion, overreaction, and an inability to cork his verbal diarrhea, Liam believes drama queen Jay must have a screw loose.

An accident as a teenager left Liam with a limp and a fear of driving. He can't play football anymore either, and that makes him feel like less of a man. But that's no reason to question his sexuality... unless the accident broke something else inside him. When being with Jay causes Liam's protective instincts to emerge, Liam starts to believe all he knew in life had been a convenient excuse to stay hidden. From intolerance to confrontations, Liam must learn to overcome his fears—and his father—before he can accept his sexuality and truly love Jay.
