4.0

Friends to lovers / 2nd chance romance set in 1959 in an elite New England boarding school. It’s kind of like if the boys in A Separate Peace had acted on all of that UST in school and it had ended kind of badly (but with both of them alive!). And then they reunited 15 years later as adults - with one of them a teacher at the school and the other the father of one of his students.

So, so good!

I read this story when it was published as part of the He’s Come Undone anthology and this is what I wrote after it came out.

Whoa, that was really good.

Great sense of time and place. Patricia, Tommy, and Everett were lovely.

It was way too short.

very sweet, a little sad. didn't love this as much as much as peter cabot gets lost but still a nice read. my question is, why does cat sebastian keep writing about the semi-boring cabot men instead of giving me what I want (a book about patricia and her butch lover living together in california in the 1950s/60s)??!
