In God's Eyes - Marcus James - Bog

What if you and your best friend shared a secret? a secret that threatened everything about your life, and what if you discovered that you shared that secret with two of the most unlikely people? Travis Espinoza and Mary Reeves have walked through the halls of Saint Francis Academy as social outcasts, just as privilaged as their classmates, but unable to fit in. Jessica Trea and Devon Court have always been on the inside, and yet these four teens find themselves drawn to each other by the one thing about themselves that they cannot escape; they're gay, and in their world being gay isn't just unacceptable, it doesn't exist. When a final project forces Travis and Devon together, they start a chain of events that begins to slowly unravel their fragile lives. With the pressures of high school and the dogmatic fundamentalist values of Travis' stepfather and preacher grandfather-as well as the social pressures of their world-the four friends learn that nothing is certain, and the desire to be themselves will take more courage than they ever thought possible. In the end the dark side of religious ideals are revealed; bringing one of them to the very threshold of death's door.
