About this ebook
Two men. Twenty years of friendship. One love.
'Lovely, funny, kind and truthful . . . I was expecting a simple will-they-won't-they, but it's wiser than that . . . challenging who we are, and why, and how we can change' Russell T. Davies
'A great eye-opening and heart-warming read' Fabulous
'A rich, funny, poignant and unflinchingly honest portrayal of friendship, love and everything in between' Ruth Hogan

2002
Danny arrives at Manchester University determined not to hide from the world any longer. This is the year his life will begin.
He locks eyes with a handsome stranger across the hall at the Freshers' Fair. It starts with a wink and soon Danny and Guy are best friends.
2022
Now, both single for the first time in years, Danny and Guy return to the confetti-covered streets of the Gay Village for Manchester Pride.
After years of shared adventures and lost dreams, Danny finally plans to share the secret he has been keeping for two decades. He has always been in love with Guy.
Could this weekend be the end of a twenty-year friendship . . . or the start of something new and even more beautiful?
