State of Us

When Dean Arnault`s mother decided to run for president, it wasn`t a surprise to anyone, least of all her son. But still that doesn`t mean Dean wants to be part of the public spectacle that is the race for the White House-at least not until he meets Dre. The only problem is that Dre Rosario`s on the opposition; he`s the son of the Democratic nominee. But as Dean and Dre`s meet-ups on the campaign trail become less left to chance, their friendship quickly becomes a romantic connection unlike any either of the boys have ever known. If it wasn`t hard enough falling in love across the aisle, the political scheming of a shady third-party candidate could cause Dean and Dre`s world to explode around them. It`s a new modern-day, star-crossed romance about what it really means to love your country-and yourself-from the acclaimed author of We Are the Ants and Brave Face, Shaun David Hutchinson.
