Teacher Dane Bernard is a gentle giant, loved by all at Summitville High School. He has a beautiful wife, two kids, and an easy rapport with staff and students alike. But Dane has a secret, one he expects to keep hidden for the rest of his life--he's gay.
But when he loses his wife, Dane finally confronts his attraction to men. And a new teacher, Seth Wolcott, immediately catches his eye. Seth himself is starting over, licking his wounds from a breakup. The last thing Seth wants is another relationship but when he spies Dane on his first day at Summitville High, his attraction is immediate and electric.
As the two men enter into a dance of discovery and new love, they're called upon to come to the aid of bullied gay student Truman Reid. Truman is out and proud, which not everyone at his small-town high school approves of. As the two men work to help Truman ignore the bullies and love himself without reservation, they all learn life-changing lessons about coming out, coming to terms, acceptance, heartbreak, and falling in love.

An engaging emotional story that brings just enough of everything. Just enough heartache. Just enough turmoil. Just enough romance. (BookUnfunk)
Big Love gets 5+ stars from me plus a "Recommended Reading" banner...RickR. Reed writes from the heart. A husband wonders if his wife died knowing that he truly loved her, while realizing with her death he can finally reveal his secret (gay) self; a gay teen knows he can either"withdraw so deep down inside himself that no one would recognize him"or embrace and celebrate his true self... (Gay Book Reviews)
This book is emotional, heartbreaking and too sweet for words!! I can't stress it enough. There were times I was crying and other times I was smiling. It's a constant battle while reading this book. (Alpha BookClub)
Overall, Big Love truly is a story with a big heart...tackles some hefty subjects here: coming out, grief, and the horrible effects of bullying. Yet, with its focus on family and acceptance in all its forms, Big Love is a story of hope, healing, and ultimately embracing the differences that make us each human and worthy of love. Touching, heart-warming, and brave, it is a m/m romance I highly recommend. (Prism Book Alliance)
