 Sometimes you just read a book that hits you hard and this is one of those books. Plan B is a new adult novel by SJD Peterson and it is an amazing journey of two young men; one who is out and proud and another who doesn't think he's gay or bisexual but finds himself attracted to a man for the second time in his life. This book encompasses several years and it is a growing and learning experience for both Danny and Lance one that will have you experiencing a wide range of emotions. 
 From the first page I kind of fell in love with Danny, it is hard not to. He's gay and he is comfortable with who he is and I so admire him for that. He's not afraid to be himself nor does he put up with crap from people who chose to judge him. When he meets Lance, the brother of his roommate's girlfriend it is pretty awful. Lance has had a few too many and makes some inappropriate comments. The thing is both Danny and Lance have noticed each other before they actually meet and there is this strange connection between them. I really feel for Lance because he is so conflicted. It is so obvious that he feels something for Danny but he isn't sure what to do about it. They start out as friends knowing that they'll be spending a lot of time together because of Danny's roommate, Bo and Lance's sister, Katie. As they spend more and more time together they begin to experiment and things heat up. I love that they are sometimes frantic, sometimes very loving, and sometimes relaxed. The fact that they spend time learning about each other outside of the bedroom is important and despite being so different, somehow they work. However, Lance is still not ready to be out and he often pulls back just when they seem to be hitting their stride. 
 What makes this book incredibly realistic are the many battles and changes they both go through trying to make sense of their relationship. Lance at times drives me completely insane and I often wonder if he truly doesn't realize how his actions hurt Danny. I often felt Danny was a little too forgiving but it was so obvious for most of the book that his heart was fully engaged whether he wanted it to be or not. 
 From start to finish Plan B is an emotional roller coaster ride with some very sensual and sexy exploration thrown in to balance it out. I found myself so wrapped up in this story; the torture of young love, the realization of sexual orientation, they messed up feelings, the hurt, and the love. It is hard not to love this story, these characters and I will revisit this story often.
