Falling

Josh's idea of a romance is curling up alone and reading a novel with a happily ever after. He s made his flat a safe haven where the walls are covered with beautiful words and his living room ceiling is a map of the universe. Angus may be shy and inexperienced, but he's incapable of hiding anything, especially his attraction to his older neighbor. When Josh admits to Angus that he s gay, he doesn't expect Angus s reaction. Angus s obvious interest terrifies Josh. For years he s managed to keep the world at arm s length and avoid getting too close to anyone. Well, anyone except Eleanor, Angus s mother, who helped Josh rebuild his life after he was hospitalized for depression. But Josh still thinks he s broken. His past has left scars he thinks are too deep to heal. Despite Josh s defenses, Angus begins to mean more to him than just the cute boy next door. If Josh can take a risk and let someone into his isolated world, he might have a chance for a real-life happy ending. "
