And because of that, he tries to give back: from charity work to letting the often irritating Georgia sit at his table at lunch, he knows it's important to be nice. And recently, he's found a new way of giving back: matchmaking. He set up his best friend Taylor with her new boyfriend and it's gone perfectly. So when his occasional friend-with-benefits Harrison starts saying he wants a boyfriend (something Emmett definitely does NOT want to be), he decides to try and find Harrison the perfect man at Highbury Academy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Emmett's childhood friend, Miles, thinks finding a boyfriend for a guy you sleep with is a bad idea. But Miles is straight, and Emmett says this is gay life - your friends, your lovers, your boyfriends - they all come from the same very small pool. That's why Emmett doesn't date - to keep things clean. He knows the human brain isn't done developing until twenty-five, so any relationship he enters into before then would inevitably end in a breakup, in loss. And he's seen what loss can do. His mother died four years ago and his Dad hasn't been the same since. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e But the lines Emmett tries to draw are more porous than he thinks, and as he tries to find Harrison the perfect match, he learns that gifted as he may be, maybe he has no idea what he's doing when it comes to love. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Modern and very gay, with a charmingly conceited lead who is convinced he knows it all, and the occasional reference to the classic movie \u003ci\u003eClueless, Emmett\u003c\/i\u003e brings you lush romance all while exploring the complexities of queer culture--where your lovers and friends are sometimes the same person, but the person you fall in love with might be a total surprise.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLev Rosen\u003c\/b\u003e writes books for people of all ages, including the Evander Mills series, which began with the Macavity Award winning \u003ci\u003eLavender House\u003c\/i\u003e (Anthony finalist, Lambda finalist, Best Book of the Year from Buzzfeed, Library Journal, Amazon, Bookpage, and others) and continued with \u003ci\u003eThe Bell in the Fog\u003c\/i\u003e, (Publisher's Weekly Editor's Choice, Best Book of the year from Amazon, CrimeReads and Autostraddle).
