    Summary

    Naim Reid has spent years perfecting the art of being invisible.

    Growing up in Bandee, a small and deeply religious town where everyone knows everyone, Naim learned quickly that hiding parts of himself was easier than risking being judged. Especially when the person he secretly liked was Ryan Whelan-- the boy who seemed completely out of reach and always stood on the other side of Hunter’s cruel jokes. So when Naim arrives at Bible camp for the summer and discovers he has been assigned to share a cabin with Ryan, he expects the worst. Except Ryan remembers him. And Ryan might not be anything like the person Naim thought he was.

    Over the course of one summer, ten campers, one shared cabin, and countless late-night conversations force two boys who spent years missing each other to finally see what was right in front of them. But with a religious camp, a small town waiting for them at the end of summer, and a relationship they have to keep hidden, Naim and Ryan have to decide if something beautiful can survive outside the safety of their summer bubble.
