This novel takes place in Tucker Springs, CO, where tattoo artist Seth Wheeler meets his new neighbor Darren Romero. Living across the hall gives the men a chance to get to know each other and maybe become friends until Seth discovers why Darren has moved to town . . . to take a job as the youth pastor at the New Light Church. Seth is an atheist and has sworn off all religions after being disowned by his family when he came out, so he immediately pulls away until Darren asks him to talk to some of the troubled teens at the youth home the church runs. Soon Seth realizes that although Darren has strong religious beliefs, he is nothing like the people who have hurt him in the past.
I enjoyed this story of two guys who have a lot in common except for one major difference. The evolution of their friendship was well written as were the personalities of the two main characters. I'd like to read a sequel just to see how their relationship progresses over time. 154 pages (Kindle edition).
