Blurb

Never believe the rumors.

SAMUEL

I’ve always wanted to leave Red Creek, go to college, and live somewhere I wouldn’t be judged for simply being myself.

But then I met Benji on my first day at the farm, and everything changed.

Benji wasn’t the kind of guy I was supposed to hang around with.

At least, that’s what everyone kept telling me.

He had a reputation, a bad attitude, and a chip on his shoulder big enough for the whole town.

Yet, every time I ran into him, I didn’t see a thug.

I saw someone who stood up for himself and the people he cared about.

And even though I should’ve known better, I wanted to become one of those people.

BENJI

I didn’t have anything against Samuel when we first met.

He kept his head down and did what he was told.

Why should I have cared what people whispered when most of them were full of shit anyway? But once he started talking about college, and I found out he lived in his own apartment—paid for by his parents—I saw red.

Was this job on the farm just a cute story he would laugh about with his future professors? I wanted to hate him for turning my reality into a joke.

And I almost did.

I even planned a prank.

But the second I set it into motion, I realized I was wrong—and that I was about to hurt the only person who had ever truly seen me for who I was.
