17-year-old Connor doesn't believe his best friend's death was an accident. Falling down the stairs was random, and Connor can't help but wonder if someone might've pushed her...




Determined to find out the truth, Connor starts his own investigation. Along the way, he discovers Evelyn's secret affair with a married man and thought she was pregnant before she died. Connor thinks he's found her killer, but an airtight alibi forces him to look in a new direction...perhaps closer to Evelyn's home.




Complicating the situation more is Connor's own secret - an unexpected hook-up with Evelyn's twin brother, Liam, at a party the previous spring. Afterward, Liam goes on a homophobic rant and punches Connor, leaving him confused. His confusion deepens when, after Evelyn's death, Liam apologizes and they start to hook-up secretly.




Liam is trapped between his attraction to Connor and his abusive father. Connor struggles with his growing attraction for Liam. Their secret rendezvous are fun, but if Connor is going to have more with Liam, he'll have to be honest about his feelings and his suspicions on who killed Evelyn. Will either

survive the truth coming out?
