Description
This winner of the first Stonewall Award for Childrens & Young Adult Literature will make you marvel at the beauty of human connection and the irrepressible nature of love.
Everyone has that one line they swear theyll never cross, the one thing they say theyll never do. We draw the line. Maybe we even believe it.
Sage Hendricks was my line.
Logan Witherspoon befriends Sage Hendricks at a time when he no longer trusts or believes in people. Hes drawn to Sage, with her constant smile and sexy voice, and his feelings for her grow so strong that he cant resist kissing her.
Sage finally discloses a big secret: she was born a boy. Enraged, frightened, and feeling betrayed, Logan lashes out at her-a reaction he soon desperately wishes he could take back. Once his anger cools, Logan is filled with incredible regret, and all he wants is to repair his friendship with Sage.
But its hard to replace something thats been brokenand its even harder to find your way back to friendship when you began with love.
