Never Apart

Ian and Isaac are not just identical, they’re inseparable. The twins have been planning a surfing trip down the coast of California with their closest friends, Koa, Blake, and London since high school, but now that they’ve graduated from college and the time is finally here, the dynamics of their group are rapidly changing in a way that might make their trip a disaster.

Before leaving for the trip, Isaac learns that Blake is pregnant with his baby. He’s committed to being there for her, even if the two of them spend most of their time together arguing. Besides, the news shouldn’t impact the trip except for the awkward part when they’ll need to tell Blake’s sister and Isaac’s ex-girlfriend, London, about the news. As Isaac realizes his feelings for Blake are continuing to change, he questions his future as a pro surfer, wrestling with what he wants most in life. If only Blake would give him a chance to explore their feelings for each other, he might just figure out what he wants to do.

Ian has been dreading the trip for weeks. He’d been doing a good job of hiding his years-long love for Koa until a drunken kiss in Vegas over spring break that he now worries is going to change everything. But when Koa shows up, he’s not acting aloof and distant like Ian expected. His flirty attitude and lingering looks make Ian more confused than ever because Koa’s always been straight and there’s no way one kiss between them changed everything. Unless it did. There’s nothing Ian wouldn’t give up for a shot at love with his best friend, but only if it’s the kind that lasts forever.

As Ian and Isaac navigate new relationships in their lives, they also navigate the changes in their relationship with each other. They’ve always had each other, and Ian has always looked out for Isaac in a way no one else can. But they’re growing up and falling in love, and sometimes that means even twins have to learn to be apart.
