About this listen

Now an award-winning film, this gay coming-of-age romance kicks off a binge-worthy saga of first love and second chances.

Out and proud high school student Ben Bentley is lonely until the fateful day someone new moves into town. Tim Wyman is fiercely handsome, enviably athletic, and instantly popular. He seems to have it all… but the truth is rarely so simple. As their lives begin to intertwine, Ben is convinced that he’s met his soulmate. Their budding romance is soon tested by spreading rumors, the danger increasing along with the tension between them.

Years later, Ben is attending college while dating a wonderful guy. Everything is perfect until Tim shows up unexpectedly. Overwhelmed by old feelings, Ben is forced to reconcile the summer-filled dreams of his youth with the complexities of his new adult life... But some love stories are impossible to forget.

Discover the passionate LGBT series that indulges in intimate details while delving deeply into emotion, resulting in an experience that will stay with you long after you finish listening.

Any additional comments?

The story starts out much like any other teen coming of age story and over the first few chapters there is some great character work which gives the whole story a 3 dimensional feel.

By the time I got to the end of the story I was almost in tears.

Wow, just wow!

I have read this book and wanted to hear it again. The love story. It makes you laugh and cry, and each chapter will leave you thinking about what more can happen. I kept my finger crossed for Ben and Tim all the time. And in some part was worried about this relationship. I dearly recommend everyone to read this book and to complete all adventure in which all characters appear, and it would be better to go through the rest of the series books too.

Love it

This book is incredible, I’m so happy I’ve found the series. It’s impossible to relate to nearly all of this story, and it’s heartbreaking twists. I don’t think I’ve ever read/listened to a story which gives me so much hope for the future

Perfection!

The story was very surprising. Unexpected things happen all the time. It was a bit sad at the end, but everything gets better in the last chapter.

Something Realy Good
