To Be Loved

Set in the heart of the Bible belt, and spanning nearly 20 years, To Be Loved is the coming-of-age, cautionary tale of Jericho, the preacher's son and Jordan, the boy who in one glance, stole his heart on the first day of Jr. High. Up against violent opposition, family expectation, the fear of God, and Jericho's picket-fenced dreams, life takes them two different directions. Years pass. Things change. The secret love they once shared now nothing more than a dream that never was. And then … fate aligns a second chance. The question is ... is it too late? A book that confronts the ultimate dilemma many people face on a daily basis grappling and coming to terms with their sexuality--Do I attempt with all my might to live a life that would please society and God, or do I live my truth?
