Secrets.Some are big; some are small. Some need to be protected more carefully than others. Born into an ultra-conservative farming family, fifteen-year-old Eli Johnston learned this early in life and lived by it until a picturesque summer day when he was discovered being a little too friendly with his secret boyfriend. The discovery of one secret set the wheels in motion for many more secrets in his young life. Hiding the even bigger secret of his resulting homelessness, now going by the name Neville Reilly, he learns to better guard his secrets until Bailey Regan walks into his life. As he slowly gains Bailey's confidence while cautiously pursuing him, desire begins to fight against the secrets that are now both a large part of him and key to his very survival. Yet, while forced to conceal his secrets, he's sure Bailey would understand. If only he could tell him. If only Bailey could see the secrets Neville hides, it would be so much easier.
