Overview

Shy and sensitive gamer Toby Michaels isn't great at making friends. For his senior year at Spruce High, all he wants to do is keep to himself, play his video games, and avoid eye contact with anything that breathes. That proves impossible the moment he meets Vann, the new bad boy in town. Mysterious, full of attitude, and with a checkered past, Vann strikes fear in the hearts of anyone who comes near him — including the bullies who won't seem to leave Toby alone. After Vann comes to Toby's rescue — in a "cafeteria food-fight armageddon" that sends all of Spruce High into a frenzy — the young men find strength in each other, and soon, their unlikely friendship ignites into something deeper. Toby is about to learn the real meaning of bravery, courage, and being one's true self. ✔️ M/M high school romance (between 18-year-olds) ✔️ Feel-good low-angst ✔️ Small-town
