BBF - Book-Boyfriend(s) - The love of our lives

Dalton, I loved you once. A love I thought irrevocable. A love I mistakenly believed could transcend both time and circumstance.

It is a story about their discovery of true friendship as it blossoms into first love, their experience of crucial sacrifice...
