"Out in the Open" by A.J. Truman

Ethan Follett is a college sophomore who dreams of going to law school and someday being a Supreme Court judge.  When he enters his Constitutional Law class on the first day of the semester, the only open seat is next to Greg Sanderson, a lazy frat boy who is more interested in playing on his phone that taking notes and paying attention to the professor.  Ethan chastises him and so begins an almost friendship that turns into something more.

Greg was a jerk throughout most of this novel, and watching him treat Ethan as his "little secret" was annoying especially since Ethan was so earnest and endearing.  However, we finally get a few glimpses of Greg when he interacts with his father that make him more human.  The novel was wrapped up a little too quickly and neatly, but I did like the character of Ethan and how he became more comfortable with himself in the end.  281 pages (Kindle edition).
