Review: College Boys by Daisy Harris

Blurb:

When soccer star Chris Fischer moves next door to an openly gay classmate, he doesn't realize the wall between their rooms will be so thin he'll hear his neighbor's every move. But soon he and Peter become friends, and Chris is intrigued—imagining what happens on the other side of the wall.

Active on the Queer Student Council, Peter Cohen wishes he wasn't so damn hot for his straight neighbor. He can't tell if Chris is flirting or in denial or what, but Chris's innocent overtures lure Peter into flirtation that throws his world into chaos. Peter doesn't want to date a closet case, but he desperately, passionately wants Chris.

Soon Chris must choose whether to run away from his new feelings or embrace a relationship with the guy he loves. And Peter must decide if he can give his heart to a guy who hasn't yet figured it all out.

My Review:

I read a later story in this series a while back, so when I had the chance to grab the first one in the series, College Boys, I figured I’d enjoy it. I did. Ms. Harris does a great job of making it easy to believe that a man wouldn’t necessarily realize he’s gay until college. So watching Chris Fischer come to terms with and finally accept that he’s gay and has feelings for his neighbor was something that was interesting and kept me reading.

I really liked Peter, he has a thing for Chris but doesn’t think it will work because Chris has to be straight, he had this deep well of patience and understanding that made this story work. He isn’t sure about dating someone who isn’t out of the closet because he wants an open and happy relationship but when he takes a chance on Chris he goes all out.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. The characters were fun, and I can definitely say it’s a great start to a series and that I will be reading more of in the future.
