**In this “sweet and satisfying” (Booklist) queer young adult romance with a dash of magic, a highschooler finds himself in a desperate search for love.
“The most fantastic, hopeful, aspirational story of gay teens in a red state since David Levithan’s Boy Meets Boy.”—Aaron Hartzler, author of Lambda Literary Award finalist Rapture Practice
“If you like a solid YA read that makes you shamelessly squee, Perfect Ten will deliver.”—HelloGiggles**
It’s been two years since Sam broke up with the only other eligible gay guy in his high school, so to say he’s been going through a romantic drought is the understatement of the decade. When Meg, his ex-Catholic-turned-Wiccan best friend, suggests performing a love spell, Sam is just desperate enough to try. He crafts a list of ten traits he wants in a boyfriend and burns it in a cemetery at midnight on Friday the thirteenth.
Enter three seemingly perfect guys, all in pursuit of Sam. There’s Gus, the suave French exchange student; Jamie, the sweet and shy artist; and Travis, the guitar-playing tattooed enigma. Even Sam’s ex-boyfriend, Landon, might want another chance.
But does a Perfect Ten even exist?
