A winding romantic relationship between an energetic theater kid, Milo, and his withdrawn classmate, Liam. Perfect for fans of Heartstopper!

Now that they've graduated high school, our secret lovebirds face a whole new set of challenges as their career prospects begin to pull them in different directions. Milo rents a tiny studio near his new university, and throws himself into his goal of becoming an actor. He takes several jobs with the hope of climbing in the industry, and packs his work-study schedule full to bursting.

Liam moves back into his childhood home, begrudgingly following the trajectory his father had long steered him toward: law school, then working for his father's law firm. As the sneaking around, stress from not having enough time to spend with each other, and hurt feelings snowball, the two decide it is finally time to come clean to their families about their relationship and desires for the future.
