Publisher's summary

Leland Swain is a free spirit. He goes wherever his heart takes him. When he's not catching rays, he's catching waves. All within the magical place of Oak Island, North Carolina. With a supportive family and a beach bum lifestyle, what more could he possibly want?

Radcliffe Douglas Brunswick III is the son of old money. His parents are staunch conservatives who will have no one disrupting their supposed picture-perfect world. So when they find out their son likes boys, they kick him to the curb. What's a coming-of-age boy to do when he's cut off from all moral and financial support?

Sometimes, we have to lose everything we know to find where we're meant to be. Other times, we need a guiding light to lead the way. Join best-selling author Daniel Elijah Sanderfer for this beautiful story about love, hope, life lessons, and found family.

Great Story and Voiceover!

I love dual perspective audiobooks a lot, if you are looking for that and a great voiceover, then this is the book for you! I loved the difference in accents as it really makes it feel like two different people and brings you in the world so much more.

Realizing Love is strong and will overcome all obstacles

I always like how it works out finding a true connection with someone who makes you feel whole but I think it was rushed a bit going through the story.

So cute and charming!

Loved the story, the characters, how cute the romance is and how cute they are togther. But please tell me they didn't get engaged after only knowing eachother for less then a month at 16 and 17 😂 What in the Diseny princess is going on lol. Overall tho the narrator did an awsome job with the voices and characters, loved how each character had their own voice that where different from one another. Would love a sequal with a little bit more... spiciness if ya know what I mean 😜 definitely worth the listen ❤️🌊

This was a very enjoyable audiobook.

That being said, why is it when gay authors, design their characters in their heads that the gay people in the book are always liberal Democrats. This book brings up the evil father donating money to Donald Trump. What a travesty. 👀

unconditional love

it needed to be longer an more about them. so far it's just the beginning of their lives together. what about the rest? what happen to them later in life. did they stay together? did they get married? how did life treat them in short term an long run? so many questions?

Great book

Great book however, it was to short I wish it was longer it would have been nice to have heard much more of both stories of both Dougs upbringing and I hope I don’t get it wrong Laylend sides. I enjoyed it for it being a short story This would have been a great novel.

Needs a better editor

Not a bad story outline. But the writing is so heavy handed. It’s like a well educated middle aged gay man’s words are coming out of a 16yo mouth. Couldn’t make it through the 2.5 hours.
