something like summerLove, like everything in the universe, cannot be destroyed. But over time it can change.

The hot Texas nights were lonely for Ben before his heart began beating to the rhythm of two words; Tim Wyman. By all appearances, Tim had the perfect body and ideal life, but when a not-so-accidental collision brings them together, Ben discovers that the truth is rarely so simple. If winning Tim’s heart was an impossible quest, keeping it would prove even harder as family, society, and emotion threaten to tear them apart.

Something Like Summer is a love story spanning a decade and beyond as two young men discover what it means to be friends, lovers, and sometimes even enemies.

Why I write…

Young Love

Our first year together.

When I was a teenager and still in the closet, I thought I’d never find the sort of love I dreamt about. Coming out changed everything. I eventually met a handsome guy from Germany who was visiting the US as an exchange student. His accent was adorable, his heart was kind, and his muscles were impressive, so I fell quick and hard. I want other people to experience that kind of love through my books. My husband continues to inspire the stories I write, just by being so darn adorable. He even illustrated the covers of the entire Something Like… series!

“The [Something Like…] series pushes all the right buttons for me. Every. Single. One. I can’t get enough of this world and the characters that live in it. It really is my ideal type of story.” ~Breann, Boy Meets Boy Reviews
