Publisher's Synopsis
Ren's world is about five-foot-seven with blond hair and blue eyes.
Ren worships his best friend. As far as he's concerned, Nice hung every last star in the sky. He's the prettiest, the coolest. Everything he does is special, from the way he starves himself skinny to the way he tells Ren all his worst ideas. They're happy in sleepy Allister, with mall dates and gentle plans, until Nice's mom dies. Nice takes off in the middle of the night, and Ren is coming with him. If he needs to run, then Ren will run, too. And if what he needs is to be wanted by every person in every room, to be touched and loved and devoured until it stops hurting-then Ren will find some way to survive that, too. Nice disappears with strangers, smokes cigarettes Ren hates, and always says the right thing. Sorry, Nice says. I didn't mean it. You forgive me, don't you? Of course Ren does. He always does because this is love, isn't it? Wanting to do anything for him. Wanting to offer him your still-beating heart to rip out of your chest. Heartline is the first book of Fragile Tender, the non-magical, heartfelt start to a contemporary M/M fantasy series.
