Description
Ian Taylor has been in love before, but never with another guy.
After four years in high school together and an explosive graduation party that destroyed everything, you can't just fall back in stride with a fresh start because it's college, even if you are best friends and roommates.
With a determination to change himself, Ian refuses to be Jase's unassuming partner and silently observe him bullying any more short-changed peers. Yet when introductions begin and Jase starts to run the circus again, Ian finds his backbone hasn't gotten any stronger.
Not willing to take any of Jase's shit, their new suite mate Dakota has a chilling glare and an underestimated intensity which Ian envies. Dakota is the first to see Ian as an individual person and makes him not feel like an idiot. Yet when a scary incident takes place at the beginning of the academic term, Ian begins to think there is more to the fiery Dakota than what meets the eye.
True North is a touching coming-of-age story that shows us the meaning of true friendship in the face of life's unexpected challenges. A truly heartwarming novel that will stay with readers long after the last page is turned.
