Seventeen-year-old Connor works his butt off to maintain the golden-boy persona heâ€™s created. He has the grades, the extracurriculars, the athletics, and a part-time job at his dadâ€™s shopâ€¦ every detail specifically chosen to ensure the college scholarships he needs to get the hell out of the Podunk town where he lives. The last thing he needs is an unexpected attraction to Graham, an eyeliner-wearing soccer phenom from St. Louis, who makes him question his goals and his sexuality. Sure, heâ€™s noticed good-looking boys beforeâ€”that doesnâ€™t have to mean anything, right?â€”but heâ€™s got a girlfriend. Thereâ€™s no room on the agenda for hooking up with Graham, but the heart doesnâ€™t always follow the rules.

As he and Graham grow close, other aspects of Connorâ€™s life fall apart. Family pressure, bad luck, and rumors threaten to derail his carefully laid plans. Suddenly the future heâ€™s fighting for doesnâ€™t seem quite as alluring, especially if he has to deny who he really is to achieve it.
