They are considered the perfect family...until Jamie reveals to his family that he is gay. Maggie talks to Jamie and tells him that she supports him. Mike is having a hard time balancing his love for his son with his religion. Brian is hurt that his brother never told him his secret. Everyone has to reconcile their feelings and work to keep the family from ripping apart.
This is a well-written story that covers many important subjects, including some people's belief that being gay is a choice, teen suicide, and discrimination. Some of the things that happen in the book are not a surprise. You can see the build-up to what's going to happen throughout the book. But, it didn't interfere with my enjoyment of the book. My rating: 4.5 Stars.
