When Starlight Touches

What if the man of your dreams moved in next door? The guy whose company you've secretly longed for, but you never even dared to say hello to? What would you do?

This is exactly what's on the mind of 19-year-old Romeo, who struggles with obesity, agoraphobia, body dysmorphia, and relentless bullying. Living his life within four gray walls, he barely ever leaves his room. But when he finally does-once a week, strictly after midnight when the streets are completely empty-the unimaginable happens. The guy of his dreams, who is also gay and lives next door, protects him from the world that suddenly crashes down on him, and walks him home.

The rest is history... or is it? Can a story that seems impossible from the start actually end in a happy ending? Read on to find out!

If you are looking for a story filled with humor and a touch of drama, this is the book for you! Romeo is a boy battling mental illness, filled with love but paralyzed by inhibitions. Nils, on the other hand-who is also 19-knows absolutely no boundaries. Every page of this book captures their incredible encounter and the time they share, speaking openly about school bullying, the mental health struggles that are all too common today, PTSD,the humiliation and ultimately: starting over.
