Taking Chances — John Goode

Fearing the backlash of living as a gay man in Foster, Texas, Matt Wallace runs away to California, only to find it isn't the Promised Land he'd hoped for. Christmas sees him returning to Foster, where he bumps into his old high school crush, jock Tyler Parker.

It's love at second sight -- for Matt *and* Tyler. The problem is neither knows what to do next. Between running from the past and running from each other, Matt and Tyler need to do some reverse engineering to spur their relationship forward, or they'll never get their love off the ground.
