DON'T LET IT BREAK YOUR HEART
Alana and Gray have been the perfect couple ever since they got together before high school and neither of them think that should have to change just because Alana came out as a lesbian last year.
Sure, things are a little different now; their romantic relationship is over, but their best-friends-since-diapers relationship is stronger than ever. And sure, Alana notices the way her best friends now exclude her in tiny ways, but she still has Gray, and that's all that's ever mattered to her. On paper, Alana is still the perfect girlfriend to her perfect boyfriend and that in- cludes sticking to their plan to follow each other to college after graduation. Really, the only difference is that instead of kissing Gray herself, Alana sets him up with other girls to do that.
But when new girl Talia arrives, she stops Alana and Gray in their tracks.
Suddenly, Gray's all-in on his master plan to get Tal to fall in love with him, and Alana's reluctant to help. As Alana and Tal grow closer, and Alana begins to think Tal might share her feelings, she has to decide whether to embrace her queerness and risk losing Gray and her plans for the future, or continue to hide parts of herself to maintain the status quo.
An exploration of identity, love, and friendship that turns well-loved romance tropes (you've heard of friends-to-lovers, but what about lovers-to-friends?) on their heads.
Maggie Horne is a writer and editor who grew up near Toronto, Canada.
