Townies

By W.S. Long

Back in high school, Johnny Cunningham had a secret crush on quarterback Zach Carpenter. Because of fear and anxiety, he didn’t do anything about it. A chance meeting after high school brings their paths together again, and sparks fly.

Zach Carpenter was born into the richest family in town, but since tenth grade, he has been attracted to Johnny Cunningham and wasn’t sure if Johnny liked him too. When they meet again after high school, Zach cannot deny his strong attraction to Johnny and pursues him, even though Johnny is a Townie and dirt poor and Zach’s parents have already determined Zach’s path in life.

When Johnny discovers Zach suffers from bipolar disorder and his parents have other plans for Zach that don’t include Johnny, can they overcome these obstacles and make their love last forever?

Raised in a military family, I lived in different places. This peripatetic life forced me to take refuge in books at a young age. I can't tell you how many books I read. But in middle school and through high school, I loved reading Victor Hugo, Thomas Hardy, Charles Dickens, and Jules Verne. Books were an escape.I eventually left home at seventeen to join the military and thought my issues with same-sex attraction could be solved.But, I was wrong. Luckily, I found someone in my life after undergoing trials and tribulations.Why do I read and write male-male romance? Frankly, we all need love and romance in our lives.You can never have too much love, or romance. Right?
