"Stanley is out of my league -- and I'm straight."

Stanley, an openly gay jock, is happy to be friends with anybody, even a straight and nerdy guy like Ben.

"They don't know the real me. They think they can throw me away."

Stanley is tired of guys who see him as a sex object or think a beautiful guy doesn't have feelings. He wants to be loved, and being seen as a jock doesn't help at all.

Winter break leaves Ben and Stanley alone in the dorm, discovering each other anew. Between the snow, the movies, the pizza, and the Christmas carols -- things happen, discoveries arise, and it's Stanley who feels unsure.

Winter Break is a standalone straight-to-gay/gay-for-you Christmas college romance with hot freshman love and a feel-good HEA.
