About the Book
Nineteen-year-old Kevin Summers returns to his hometown an unemployed college dropout, broke and nearly homeless. Hoping for a fresh start, he must come to terms with his mistakes before rebuilding his life. Beneath his carefully constructed facade lies a storm of guilt, longing, and self-doubt. As he reconnects with old friends and someone new, his past and present collide in powerful, unexpected ways. Grappled with betrayal and disillusionment, a chance encounter changes everything, leaving Kevin with a pivotal choice: continue living a lie or risk everything to embrace his true self.
Boys Like Kevin is perfect for fans of Call Me By Your Name, Lie With Me, and Giovanni's Room. It's a moving coming-of-age novel about desire, identity, and the quiet courage it takes to live with authenticity, even when it hurts.
