Rafe has been out since eighth grade, and he's fine with it, and so is everyone else. But sometimes he just wants to be a regular guy, not the gay guy. So when he transfers to an all-boys' boarding school in New England, he decides to become "openly straight" instead. The transformation works: Rafe revels in a new group of straight guy friends and the freedom of living without a label. But then he falls in love with one of his new friends... who doesn't even know that love is a possibility.
