15 Year old Gordon has been out of the closet for a few years now, and has had very few problems with the experience so far. But it is during a frigid Chicago Winter that his eye wanders to a slightly younger boy who has moved into the house at the end of the block. A gentle curiosity soon turns to an obsession, and then into full blown infatuation. The more he learns, the more he wants to learn. Who is this young beauty? And will Gordon's affections be returned? Or is he just wasting his time?
Excellent novelette about two boys, complete strangers at first who fall in love, and all with a festive setting. Certainly worth the read, the characters are well built upon and the plot adequately handled for its length.
