Danny is sixteen and spending his summer in Rome. As his mother works all day in a museum dedicated to the preservation of books, he wanders the city’s ancient, lonely streets, not really sure what he’s looking for... until a voice calls to him, and a strange, beautiful boy steps into his life. Angelo.
Soon Danny and Angelo are spending all their time together. Danny has never felt anything like this—the electricity of attraction, the fear of abandonment, the sweetness of belonging. He’s in love for the first time, but he’s also painfully aware that when the summer ends, he’ll have to return to America. In the meantime, Angelo, who seems to know all of Rome’s twisting corners and hidden histories, delights in sharing its sights and secrets... even as he holds his own secrets just out of Danny’s reach.
