This is a heartwarming journey of one boy trying to protect the identity of a secret admirer while protecting his own heart. Simon is forced to come out. His parents are supportive, and his sisters are too. There’s a nice family dynamic there.

He really wants to know who his secret admirer is and that ending! This is the book that launched my interest in this genre. I loved it!

The online mystery in this book is eerily reminiscent of the digital age we live in.

It felt like an updated version of the classic love story, something I aim to achieve in my own works—relatable yet unique. Plus, the book's celebration of love, irrespective of sexual orientation, is something I wholeheartedly stand behind.

The deep look inside Simon’s head proved to me that not every LGBTQ person is the same and I was touched by how he tried to overcome his fear of coming out of the closet. Romance in a beautiful setting such as this made it so innocent to read and I loved the experience.
