Straight Boy

By Jay Bell

I love him. And I’m pretty sure he loves me back... even though he’s straight.

When I first met Carter King, I knew he was something special. I imagined us being together, and we are, but only as friends. Best friends! I’m trying to be cool with that, even though I know he has secrets, and there have definitely been mixed signals. I don’t want a crush to ruin what we already have. Then again, if there’s any chance that we can be together, it’s worth the risk, because Carter could be the love of my life. Or he might be the boy who breaks my heart.

Straight Boy is Jay Bell’s emotional successor to his critically acclaimed Something Like... series. This full-length novel tells a story of friendship and love while skating the blurry line that often divides the two.

An amazing heart-wrenching story from start to finish! Loved It!

I love how in the end they give each character their own special ending! Made for a great ending, even though it didn’t end how I wanted/envisioned i’m still glad I read it (even in just one day haha)

Thanks for this great book. I had to read it all. Two days it took me. I enjoyed so much, I myself had a straight friend who I loved and he loved me too, he ended up doing stuff with me but only because he knew I wanted. He has a kid now and wife.
