You Don’t See Me

Summary:

That’s not me. I’m just hidden in this body. Ros has finally found Eddy, the girlfriend they’ve always wanted. But Ros can’t tell her the truth: that Ros is trans, and wants to live in a male body. After a party Ros’s classmates “discover” they are a lesbian – but the inaccurate label is hurtful. Ros knows only one thing will make them happy. But telling the world a truth you’ve hidden all your life is scary. Maybe it would be easier to live a lie? The homophobic comments are already bad enough. And if the truth comes out – what is Ros’s next move? And what will happen when Eddy finds out? (Source: Publisher)
