Description:
A
Harmony Ink Press Young Adult Title
In his junior year
at a public high school, sweet, bright Casey Minton’s biggest worry isn’t being
gay. Keeping from being too badly bullied by his so-called friends, a group of
girls called the Queen Bees, is more pressing. Nate De Marco has no friends, his
tough home life having taken its toll on his reputation, but he’s determined to
get through high school. Zander Zane’s story is different: he’s popular, a
jock. Zander knows he’s gay, but fellow students don’t, and he’d like to keep
it that way.
No one expects much when these three are
grouped together for a class project, yet in the process the boys discover each
other’s talents and traits, and a new bond forms. But what if Nate, Zander, and
Casey fall in love—each with the other and all three together? Not only gay but
also a threesome, for them high school becomes infinitely more complicated and
maybe even dangerous. To survive and keep their love alive, they must find
their individual strengths and courage and stand together, honest and united.
If they can do that, they might prevail against the Queen Bees and a student
body frightened into silence—and even against their own crippling fears.

About
the Author:
Mia Kerick is the
mother of four exceptional children—all named after saints—and five
nonpedigreed cats—all named after the next best thing to saints, Boston Red Sox
players. Her husband of twenty years has been told by many that he has the
patience of Job, but don’t ask Mia about that, as it is a sensitive subject.
Mia focuses her
stories on the emotional growth of troubled men and their relationships, and
she believes that sex has a place in a love story, but not until it is firmly
established as a love story. As a teen, Mia filled spiral-bound notebooks with
romantic tales of tortured heroes (most of whom happened to strongly resemble
lead vocalists of 1980s big-hair bands) and stuffed them under her mattress for
safekeeping. She is thankful to Dreamspinner Press for providing her with an
alternate place to stash her stories.
Mia is proud of her
involvement with the Human Rights Campaign and cheers for each and every
victory made in the name of marital equality. Her only major regret: never
having taken typing or computer class in school, destining her to a life
consumed with two-fingered pecking and constant prayer to the Gods of
Technology.
My themes I always write about:
Sweetness. Unconventional love, tortured/damaged heroes- only love can save
them.
