Private

Overview: Matthew is an asexual, transgender author from the wet and windy British Isles. He is currently lurking in the Bristol area, but has lived all over, and has a special fondness for Yorkshire. Sixteen-year-old Shane has finally settled into life in the country, with university ambitions, a steady relationship, and a grudging tolerance for dance that is entirely the fault of his boyfriend, Luke. Then Shane's father gets his marching orders, and Shane's time in this new life is put on a countdown. At sixteen, Shane could legally leave but has nowhere to go. And leaving the first real home he's had in nearly twelve years doesn't feel any better whether it's for the wilds of Cornwall or the local housing association. But in order to stay, Shane is going to have to tell his very conservative, very military family his biggest secrets ... all three of them.
