Taming 7

Boys of Tommen #5

She’s pure sunshine. He’s everyone’s favorite class clown. But storm clouds are gathering, and this Tommen boy is about to get serious.

Gerard “Gibsie” Gibson has always been the life of the party. Tommen College’s resident jokester, he keeps everyone laughing and rarely lets anyone see the cracks beneath the surface. But behind the humor lies a past that still haunts him, and laughter has become his way of keeping the truth hidden.

Claire Biggs has always been the opposite: bright, warm, and endlessly optimistic. She’s known Gibsie her entire life: her brother’s best friend, her next-door neighbor, and the boy she’s quietly loved for years. Unlike everyone else, Claire sees the parts of him he tries so hard to hide.

Determined to break through his defenses, Claire refuses to give up on her wild-hearted childhood friend.

But when boundaries begin to blur and feelings grow deeper, their friendship is pushed to its limits. What they have could blossom into something more, or fall apart completely.
