A traumatic accident may have ended his hopes of playing professionally, but he's made the most of his four years on the field at a small Southern California college. He's learned the hard way to embrace change, take chances and try things outside of his comfort zone...like agreeing to play fake boyfriends for someone else's senior project.Mitch Peterson knows that being his authentic self is the path to true happiness. He's grown from a shy, quiet kid from a broken home to an out and proud budding internet sensation bound for grad school. An awesome senior project is the key.

Evan is forced to face old demons and decide if he has the courage to take the next step and come out in the end zone.
