Flashback to 2003 when Chad Michael Murray stole the hearts of teenage girls around the word as he moodily sauntered into One Tree Hill as Lucas Scott, played a bit of basketball, fell in love with a misunderstood cheerleader and worked out his daddy-and-half-brother issues.

His baggy grey tracksuit and brooding look were just so HOT.

It was probably the first time we really knew what love was. Probably.

As well as being a basketball ace and all-round nice guy, Lucas was also an aspiring writer.

So, basically perfect.

And now, in some sort of time warp/parallel universe type thing, Lucas (Chad) has become a real life author.

Yep, Chad Michael Murray has written an ACTUAL book.

Judging by the books Lucas wrote in the show, we've got high hopes for Chad's literary prowess.

An Unkindess of Ravens and The Comet just sound so gripping, don't they?

In real life though, Chad has teamed up with author Heather Graham and has co-written an adventure-thriller-romance novel called American Drifter.

The story follows an American soldier as he backpacks through Rio de Janeiro in Brazil.

And, guys, it gets better, as the book is based on one of Chad's DREAMS

"American Drifter's romance was inspired by a dream I had," he explained to Us Weekly.

"The dream has played out so vividly, as if I was a fly on the wall watching this tale go down. Also, at that time, I had been searching for a story that would resonate with the youth of the world in a way that would make us feel the light and excitement for adventure."

COULD HE BE ANY MORE LUCAS?

We literally cannot wait to read this novel, but unfortunately it's looks like we're going to have to wait a while, as American Drifter is not scheduled for release until 7 November, 2017.

2017!

A WHOLE YEAR AWAY.

:( :(

We just hope Chad releases an audiobook with him reading out the story aloud so we can listen to it in bed and pretend we're actually in a bed with Chad Michael Murray softly whispering in our ear and reading us a story.

No? Guys?

Just us then.
