Under the Boardwalk by Felice Stevens
Meet Alexi, all round good son, hard worker and closeted gay man. He longs for life beyond the boardwalk where he works in his dad's custard stand. He is young and innocent and wants to live.
When he spends the Summer yearning for the gorgeous boy busking across from where he is working, he wishes he had the courage to say hello.
Cameron vows to come back next summer to sing on the boardwalk, if only for a chance to meet the beautiful boy in the stand opposite.
When next summer comes and they finally meet, Alexi finds out Cameron has had the life he dreamed of and wants a part of it. The only problem is, being gay would never be accepted in his family and he is scared of what will happen.
All he knows is though, he won't give up Cameron after the summer...
A very sweet story about young love.
4 out of 5 stars.
