Content descriptions

General Note:
"Romance is the last thing on Charlie's mind. -- On his first day at Valentine's Academy for Boys, Charlie's carefully crafted plan to hide his identity as the school's sole trans student is set in motion -- only to be immediately destroyed. Charlie has been assigned the worst roommate in the world (possibly the universe): Jasper Grimes, the boy who broke Charlie's heart the year before he transitioned. Except, Jasper doesn't recognize Charlie. How long until Jasper realizes the truth? Charlie has one shot at freedom -- and a dorm room all to himself -- but only if he helps Jasper write love letters on behalf of their fellow students. No problem, Charlie can help Jasper with some silly letters. Long nights spent discussing deep romantic feelings with Jasper? Surely, no unintended consequences will arise ... " -- inner front flap.
