paperback, as new, 182pp. "No way is a black boy, never mind a gay black boy, going to get to play Romeo in this high school play," thinks Johnnie Ray Rousseau as he fidgets in drama class. Still, the news that he doesn't hits him like a body blow. In retrospect, it seems almost like an opening bell. For it was the month Todd Waterson, high school hero and all-around hunk, got the Baptist minister's daughter pregnant. The month sweet Cherie Baker, his girl through high school, decided the time had come for them to make love. The month his best friend, Efrem Zimbalist Johnson, was beaten so badly by his father he had to be hospitalized. The month he met Marshall MacNeill, surely the sexiest man ever to walk God's good earth. All in all, a month to remember. Seller Inventory # 2005
