FOUR BOUNDLESS STARS
That Feeling When is such a sweet, at times complicated romance. Archie is forced to go to camp, to figure out who he wants to be. Because being a dancer in his dad's eyes doesn’t seem good enough. But his trip to camp becomes so much more than he thought it would be. That’s when he meets Landon, a famous actor filming his big action movie. I loved these characters. They found something in each other. I love those romances that are unexpected. Archie is so afraid at first that he may be gay. That it clouds everything. Landon does have patience since he understands and has been there before. But sometimes it can become too much. Throughout the story, their learning so much about each other. Getting to know the different sides that they hide from the rest of the world. I enjoyed this story. And I feel there’s such a great message within these words. Overall, I give this Four Boundless Stars.

Excerpt:
"I’m staring at Landon, whose face has taken on this hard edge.
I want to go smooth out his brow, massage his tense jawline, tell him I’m sorry for the other day, and for now, and for everything I’m going to do in the future.
Because I’m not into guys.
But even as I’m looking at him, I’m finding it harder and harder to look away."
