Blurb:

At just nineteen, Stephen returns to the front lines of World War I, carrying both physical wounds and the heavy burden of lost love. Despite his scars, he is determined to lead his platoon with courage and conviction, navigating the horrors of war while questioning what he is truly fighting for.

Amidst the chaos, he meets Private Danny McCormick, a talented and bright young recruit. Their connection is immediate, intense, and entirely forbidden by the rules of both society and the army. Stephen must balance his desire to protect Danny with the relentless pressures of military life, all while contending with the prejudice and ignorance of his superiors.

As the summer of 1916 progresses toward the critical Somme offensive, their bond is tested like never before. Each day brings new dangers, and the line between survival and heartbreak becomes increasingly thin. Their love, though forbidden, offers a fragile hope in a world dominated by destruction, fear, and loss.

Boy I Love by William Hussey is a lyrical, moving, and deeply poignant story of love, courage, and resilience amidst the devastation of war. It explores the strength of the human spirit, the power of love in adversity, and the cost of holding true to one’s heart.
