Better for younger guys.

This was a cute story, but I feel like it is better suited to younger listeners.

Excellent romance for anyone who has had a teenage crush.

A wonderful story that speaks to anyone who had had a crush as a teenager. It even lets people who never got to kiss another boy at 13 to see an alternate way first crushes could have turned out. A very sweet story of the emotions of being gay or queer and the feelings of being a teenage boy playing jokes and just goofing around with others not all of whom are even gay or questioning.

Cute! Current!

I'm so glad Mark is an author. Thank you Mark for mentioning Mercedes Lackey's book. I've read her whole Valdemar series, she's an incredible author… as are you!

So-oh-oh-oh CUTE!

This is a short listen about two young men at summer camp who spend their time competing for the affections of a third young man while fighting and playing pranks on one another. Utterly charming (!) with good lessons for all embedded within. Very innocent and charming. I had a great time listening to all their antics! I loved the narrator as well. He has a great voice and delightfully breathes a lot of life energy into Curtis, the main character. You may be hard pressed to find a more innocent and charming portrayal of young gay men trying to navigate their way through adolescence. A GREAT listen!!

great story

loved it but it could have been a lot longer an more details. could have gone into how the two competing for the boys affection when they found out it was a ploy, how they hooked up an how they fell for each other.
