Into You Kindle Edition

What do you do when the body you wake up in isn’t yours?

Olly and Scott promised to be best friends forever. They grew up on the same street, went to the same school, and did everything together. But one hot summer night, teenage experimentation caused hurt feelings and confusion, and their friendship was destroyed.

Four years later they’re both eighteen years old and in their final term at school. Scott is a football star and Olly’s preparing for a main role in the school play. After a heated argument in the street—witnessed by their mysterious, elderly neighbour—they wake up the next morning stuck in each other’s bodies.

With no idea how to get back to normal, they have to co-operate in order to hide their secret. Spending time together rekindles their friendship, yet feelings run deeper for both of them. With the end of school fast approaching, the clock is ticking. Unless they discover how to change back, they could be stuck in the wrong bodies forever.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"I really enjoyed this story. I couldn't put it down. It's incredibly sweet and will make you believe in second chances. Despite the rather magical plot, this book is really about being true to yourself and finding that one person who's meant for you." My Fiction Nook

"I loved the story, but I loved the fact that I couldn't put the book down even more." Boy Meets Boy Reviews

"This is proof that Jay Northcote can nail YA too. I'm very picky with my YA reads, and the body swap trope has never appealed to me. But I absolutely loved Into You." Gay Book Reviews

Jay writes contemporary romance about men who fall in love with other men. Jay has five books published by Dreamspinner Press, and he also self-publishes under the imprint Jaybird Press.

Jay is transgender and was formerly known as she/her.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun story
Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2017

This is a story with a very unusual premise (sorry, no spoilers here) and two protagonists with an unusual neighbor who takes an interest in them. The protagonists are apart and then together and they end up having a lot of fun, even though they sometimes don't realize that it's fun. How this all happens is told in this thoroughly interesting and well-written story. Included is a little sex and and a lot of entertainment. Read it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable read.
Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2016

Quite predictable and somewhat cliched - but eminently enjoyable. I was a bit surprised at just how well this kind of plot had been handled. (It could have been dreadful). A bit awkward to follow at first considering the "switch" is perspective, but after a few chapters the story was easy to follow. Interest in the characters and story was maintained throughout in spite of its predictability. As with most stories of this kind, there were many "flaws" in how the author had the people surrounding the main characters react but this was easy to overlook as the story continued to be merely the fun read it was meant to be. Would the boys parents REALLY not suspect something was amiss their sons' behavior? I think not in a real situation. But this WAS a fantasy. (For another example, I would not really expect the one father's conversion from total homophobe to even grudging acceptance to have been that rapid).
And amazingly, considering the plight of how grammar is so horribly mangled these days, I only found one mistake.
Recommended.

How can you not love a book that has these lines near its beginning: "The day officially sucked sweaty donkey balls."

Yes, we have many stories where two souls change bodies, but I loved this one.

This was such a fabulously unique story ~ i throughly enjoyed it! Not only did two old friends who painfully parted ways - reconnect in such a sweet and often laugh-out-loud way, the boys came to terms with who they really are deep inside ~ while stuck in the body of someone else! This story was engaging, refreshing and sweet!

Can't go wrong with this guy. He is an awesome writer. I like it that he leaves a lot to the imagination when it comes to two guys having sex. So much better than all the details.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice story for young adults
Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2017

This book was a nice read. It was a new twist on the freaky Friday type body switch although it didn't happen on a Friday. I gave it three stars because I liked it. When I first tried to read this story I put it down. I didn't think the body swap was interesting, but decided to give it another chance. It read easily and the pace was moderate like most young adult (YA) books and it gave enough details about the main characters and a good amount of insight about why Scott's dad had a homophobic attitude. The resolution was very good and the story continued on well after they got back to their original bodies.

What a weave! :)) I thoroughly enjoyed this plunge into the fantastical. I have always had a penchant for magical stories, and this was just marvellous. Funny, convoluted, heart-achey -all the things. The boys and their "girlfriends" - omg. LOL. Yup, Jay can write a sequel to Comedy of Errors next, no prob ;)

Jay offers up a sweet story about finding happiness. Check reality at the door and sprinkle the fairy dust. It’s time to find out what it’s like being in someone else’s skin. 3.75 for mysterious neighbors.

An MM version of Freaky Friday.
Loved it and was funny seeing how both boys - Scott and Olly - learned to cope as each other.
Being a teen can be hard enough but not being honest with yourself is so much harder and like pretending.
Scott and I'll discover just how much they've missed out on and revisiting the moment that ended their friendship was well done

4.0 out of 5 stars really dislike the cover
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 22, 2016

This is hardly relevant to the story but I feel I have to get it off my chest.
I really, really dislike the cover...
However Jay is an auto buy for me so I went for it cover not withstanding.

I found it tricky to work out who was who a lot of the time. It's not a criticism as I think the author did a great job of prompting us to remember who was speaking or who's head we were in, I think it's probably just a problem with body swap stories in general.

I really liked Olly and Scott and Olly dealing with Amy made me laugh out loud!

It's a really sweet and cute story. Yes it's all a bit too perfect but I don't care I really enjoyed it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can the boys get back together?
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 25, 2017

This is a gentle book. There is romance and the sorting, or hope of sorting out problems with parents. It is difficult for parents to accept the gay identity of their children. In this story one set of parents is very accepting and the father of the other family has difficulty. The two boys are helped by an older and wizened neighbour and her black cat; which adds interesting intrigue to the story. This story takes little effort to read, it has mild sex between two 18 year old boys. Enjoyable!

5.0 out of 5 stars A thoroughly enjoyable gay teen romance
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 21, 2017

My early impression was of a fairy tale for young children, but it was soon apparent that it was for a teenage readership. Some passages were sexually titillating and there was some good sense about anti.gay bigotry. Highly recommended for readers of all ages over about 12.
