First Summer, First Love

This is an Apple Books audiobook narrated by a digital voice based on a human narrator.

Jonah never expected this summer to be anything special. Returning to his mother's small hometown of Willow Bay, he anticipated quiet days, long walks alone, and a whole lot of boredom.

Then he meets Luka—a confident, warm, sunlit boy who instantly captivates him. From beach bonfires to canoe rides, from laughter-filled afternoons to quiet heart-to-heart talks, Jonah discovers a connection he never knew he needed.

But first love is never simple. Jonah wrestles with his feelings, fear, and identity, while Luka fears opening his heart too soon. Through jealousy, missteps, apologies, and tender moments, they navigate the fragile, exhilarating world of young love.

On the last night of summer, standing on the pier where it all began, Jonah and Luka make a promise: to explore their love slowly, openly, and together.

First Summer, First Love is a heartfelt coming-of-age gay romance full of warmth, vulnerability, and the unforgettable thrill of discovering yourself—and someone special—for the very first time.
