Synopsis

A heartfelt memoir exploring the transformative power of mentorship and the journey toward personal healing.

When Aaron Kirk Douglas volunteers as a Big Brother to Rico, a 12-year-old navigating life without a father, he anticipates making a positive impact. What he doesn't expect is how this relationship will compel him to confront his own past as a boy growing up gay in a small Oregon town. Their evolving bond becomes a mirror, reflecting the challenges and triumphs of both their lives.

This coming-of-age story delves into the complexities of male role models and the profound effects of personal transformation. As Douglas guides Rico through adolescence, he simultaneously embarks on a journey of self-discovery, healing old wounds, and redefining his understanding of family and love.

Growing Up Twice is the first installment in a compelling trilogy that examines the enduring impact of mentorship and the possibilities of redemption. Available in Kindle, Paperback, and Audible formats, with the audiobook narrated by the author for an intimate listening experience.
