Every Hidden Truth by Nikole Knight

Two young men haunted by their pasts. One bond that can save them both.

Sarcastic loud-mouth, Silas Brigs is used to taking care of himself. He’s done it for years, after all. But the too-perfect Ben Adams has other plans. Against all odds, the California diver has worked his way under Silas’s prickly exterior, and Silas is left to wrestle with the simmering attraction building between them.

When their feelings can no longer be ignored, Silas and Ben must work together to navigate their insecurities and trauma, or risk the delicate relationship they’ve come to rely on. But Silas’s life is filled with more than simple high school drama, and being his friend—let alone more—puts Ben in danger. Monsters from Silas’s past refuse to sleep, and the secrets are piling up. Unfortunately for Silas, some truths don’t stay hidden.
