When something seems too good to be true, it usually is. Or is it?
Alex is tired. Tired of being bullied, ignored, and tired of his dysfunctional parents. He cleans out his locker, so no one else has to do it for him once he’s gone. When his books are knocked out of his hands, however, it sets off a motion of events that makes him feel more alive than he ever has before.
Andreas is the best friend of one of Alex’s bullies, but he’s nothing like his friend. Andreas is kind and compassionate and charming—and he doesn’t seem to mind all of Alex’s scars. When it turns out Andreas is also bisexual, and interested in Alex, is all seems too good to be true.
Life might be good now, but that’s all about to come to an end soon, and what then?
Alex has had a turbulent few months, with a bashing, abusive parents, getting used to his new life with a boyfriend and living with said boyfriend. He could do without the best friend who doesn’t like him—or maybe he does?
But life’s about to become even more turbulent. The last semester of his education is well underway and it’s time to figure out what he’s supposed to do next. Only Alex doesn’t know what he wants to do with his life.
Andreas has always known what he wants to do: the Police Academy. But first he might have to do an obligatory year in the army. This means he has to move away from Alex for a whole year, with only brief visits back home.
Can a newfound relationship survive the trials lying ahead? Can Alex survive what’s lying ahead of him?
