BOOK BLURB:
Elliot has been living a lie in New York, letting his friends and family think he's a wheeler-dealer in the real estate game. When he leaves New York to return to his small town home, he's relieved to see that no one knows any better about his life, and that some things never change.

The one person who has changed is his high school boyfriend, Tony. Tony's not willing to chance on the man who left him high and dry to go to the city, no matter how much Elliot wants him to. What Tony knows is what Elliot has to learn; only the truth can bring them back together again.

BOOK REVIEW:
Jodi Payne’s “Whence He Came” is a story with an emotional punch. It’s a wonderful story of thanksgiving, not of the turkey variety, but of the coming home variety, of finding what you’ve lost and being thankful for getting it back. There’s a feeling of nostalgia as the main character, Elliot, returns home. He describes how things have changed: the buildings, main street, the people; and how many things have stayed the same: his childhood bedroom, his parents, his favorite diner … his love for Tony.

But Elliot can be a bit selfish and has returned home under less than truthful circumstances. He needs to overcome both these obstacles before he can have his heart’s desire and happiness.

Jodi knows how to deliver a heartwarming story of love and hope. Definitely a recommended read. Enjoy!
