Sometimes the best thing you can get for Christmas is knowing what you really want.
Rusty Baker is a blond, rich, entitled football player in a high school full of them - just the type of oblivious jock all the bullied kids hate. And he might have stayed that way except he develops a friendship with out-and-proud Oliver Campbell from the wrong side of the tracks. Rusty thinks the friendship is just pity - Oliver is very bright, and Rusty is very not - but then Oliver kisses him good-bye when Rusty leaves for college, and Rusty is forced to rethink everything he knows about himself.
But even Rusty's newfound awareness can't help him survive a semester at Berkeley. He returns home for Thanksgiving break clinging to the one thing he knows to be true: Oliver Campbell is the best thing that's ever happened to him.
Rusty's parents disagree, and Rusty finds himself homeless for the holidays. Oliver may not have much money, but he's got something Rusty has never known: true family. With their help and Oliver's love, Rusty comes to realize that he may have failed college, but he'll pass real life with flying rainbow colors.

"Sweet Holiday Romance."
Rusty is from a wealthy family and he knows he is a dumb jock. His family wants him to go to Berkely but he knows he could never make it there. His father, of course, insists and pulls strings, making it hard for him there as well. He is a bit slow on the uptake not realizing how his best friend in high school feels about him. Around Thanksgiving, he finally got it and was so glad to see Oliver. He got caught up n a kiss and was busted by his mom finding him; from rags to riches. But what he learns is that there is more to life than what money can buy and the best families... you don't have to be born into.
This is a very sweet story about two young men finding each other, becoming friends first and solidifying their relationship. Rusty wants to be able to offer Oliver more than an air mattress on the floor in a cold apartment and Oliver wants to teach Rusty home is where they are. I loved this story. I loved how they relationship built but what I liked the most was where so many people hopped in during Rusty's time of need. Not only with material things but support.
As usual, Nick J Russo gave a stellar performance. He has a soothing voice and drew me into the story. If you like sweet, New adult romance, coming out, gay for you, finding one's place in life, A holiday story and a clean but sexy story you will love this
