    Summary

    On the confidence course in 1990, Sergeant Sullivan told recruit Cope that there were no faggots in his Marine Corps. They both knew it was a lie, but that hadn't stopped it from becoming Cam's mantra since then. Even as it became clear that no Marine Corps that included Sullivan was without homosexuals. Even as Sullivan threw his life away

    No faggots in the Marine Corps meant that Cam had to keep his shit locked down, just like Sullivan had told him to. So that's what he's done. Things got a bit easier in 1993 when "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" passed and the military stopped actively hunting the homosexuals in the ranks. Cam stopped pretending to be interested in dating women and settled quietly into government sanctioned, self imposed celibacy.

    Now it's 2011, and with the repeal of "Don't Ask Don't Tell" Cam finds himself a 38 year old virgin on a boys trip to Vegas, and for the first time facing the prospect of having sex without needing to fear being found out, and two marine buddies determined to get him laid.

    Summary

    It had been four years.

    Enough time to grow back the wavy brown hair the Marines shaved off.

    Enough time to leave his mother’s house once he turned eighteen.

    Cameron Cope thought he’d left the Marines behind —and all the politics that came with it— when he traded New Orleans for bartending at a gay bar in New Jersey. But when his former bully turned confidant, Slovacek, shows up unannounced, one impulsive night together sends everything spiraling... Just as Ray, his lifelong best friend, arrives on his doorstep in crisis.

    A drunken kiss. A jealous punch. A furious walk out into the cold Jersey night— and that’s when Cam sees him. Sergeant Sullivan. Alive. Real. The man who once made him believe he was worth saving.

    Now caught between three men, each representing a different part of his life —passion, guilt, and redemption— Cam is pulled into a web of military secrets, new dangers, and the kind of love that destroys just as much as it heals.

    ---
    Or: Cam's mom never signed the waiver to allow him to remain in the Marines, so he runs away from it all with the hope of never looking back.

    Until Sergeant Liam Bobby Sullivan walked in, Private Cameron Cope learns that surviving training isn’t just about endurance.

    It’s about keeping your head down when your heart starts to betray you, and the things you’re not supposed to feel when someone’s shouting orders in your face.
