In a heartfelt YA debut, seventeen-year-old Gael grapples with his identity as a transgender boy while navigating a challenging senior year in a conservative Tennessee high school. Initially reluctant to join Plus, a support group for LGBTQIA+ teens, Gael begins to confront his struggles with family dynamics, including supporting his mother through depression and dealing with an estranged father. As he bonds with the easygoing Declan and a new circle of friends, Gael faces difficult decisions about love and vulnerability, especially after tragedy strikes, prompting him to consider opening his heart to those who care.
