Paper Hearts

You never forget your first love. No matter how hard you try.

The day of his high school graduation after getting caught making out with a boy in his parent's kitchen, Benny Quintaña left his best friend (and unrequited crush) Mikey behind when he stormed off in a righteous teenage rage and joined the Marines.

One dishonorable discharge and a few alcohol-soaked years later, things are looking up. He's almost a year sober. He has a new job in a new town where no one knows his history of failure. He's totally got this.

When the smoking hot masked man he hooks up with in the bathroom of a club turns out to be his ex-best friend Mikey, Benny's world explodes. When he meets Mikey's four-year-old daughter and realizes he loves her as much as he still loves Mikey, Benny realizes he's screwed in more ways than one.
