Hiding Things — S.C. Wynne

Mason Downing is good at a lot of things, but math isn't one of them. What he is good at is hiding the fact that he's a poor kid on a full scholarship at elite Bragson University—though he won't be there for long if he can't get his grades up. Carter Lantor is the embodiment of all that Mason pretends to be: rich, confident, and smart. But when Carter is handpicked to be Mason's new math tutor, Mason learns that he's not the only one hiding things. Soon, Carter's picture-perfect façade begins to crack under the pressure of his father's expectations and his own unhappiness.  Together, Mason and Carter must teach each other that no matter how much they question their place in the world, they should never question their love for each other.
