Summary
Castiel Novak has spent his entire life holding hateful protest signs outside the places his church condemns. He’s never questioned it. Not once.
Then he’s forced to go into a gay bar, and the world he thought he knew cracks wide open.Dean Winchester shouldn’t give a damn about the gorgeous protester who stumbled into his world. But when his friends dare him to shake Castiel’s faith, Dean can’t resist the challenge.
What starts as a game turns into something dangerously real when Castiel begins questioning everything that he’s been taught…..and Dean realises that he’s no longer playing.
Their Constitutional Law class forces them together, and Castiel discovers a truth he can’t unfeel: the world he has been raised to hate might be exactly where he belongs. But unlearning a lifetime of religious trauma doesn’t happen overnight. Castiel is caught between the family who shaped him and the man who is showing him who he could be.
And Dean has to decide if he’s willing to love someone who is still learning how not to condemn him.
This is a love story about found family, forbidden love, religious trauma and the courage it takes to finally be yourself.
