NOTE: I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. 
 I've read several of Annabeth Albert's books and they're all well written and interesting. She puts her characters in tricky situations and makes them face real world problems-- especially homophobia and the challenges of coming out. Here she sets up two pretty opposite characters: Zach, a deeply closeted gay military man from the Bible belt, and Pike, an out and proud gamer from San Francisco. Their relationship ramps up very slowly and believably, though it's obvious there will be a crisis over Zach going public with Pike. So if there's any downside to this book it's that it doesn't hold many surprises, but it's all written with so much thoughtful, perceptive intelligence that it's still definitely worth reading.
