Justin Reed is sixteen and has problems. His mum died during the summer holidays, his older brother, the only person he feels he can talk to, is away at university, and he lives with a father who simply can’t deal with anything emotional. Justin tries to navigate his way through his final year at secondary school but his friends and teachers no longer seem to know how to treat him, or what to say, so they keep their distance. But then there’s Niall Casey; he’s funny and compassionate, and makes Justin feel things that confuse him; they make him feel wonderful but even more isolated at the same time. As if Justin’s life isn’t complicated enough, he now has to try to make sense of the thoughts and emotions that course through him every time he sees Niall. This is a story about taking risks, facing the truth and finding love when it seems that the whole world is against you.

I write contemporary gay (MM) fiction. My books are about growing up gay and living in a world which at best often misunderstands. I look at the big themes – finding love, coming out, prejudice and intolerance, religion and families. I also like to look at the often hidden issues that many of my straight friends never think about – how it feels not being able to hold hands when you walk down the street with your partner, wondering how gay friendly a hotel or holiday resort might be when you make a booking, worrying how your new work colleagues might react to the news that you’re gay.
