Picking a new name was easy. Finding himself? Not so much.

Starting university in a new city after coming out as trans is Orion’s best chance to press reset. It’s an opportunity to join clubs, make new friends, and forget who he used to be. But before he can find his feet at his very first Pride festival, he bumps into Sebastian Holmsted, the drummer for an all-queer local rock band called Cloudkillers - and a childhood crush he’s not-so-over.

At first, it seems as though Orion’s been given a chance to start over with Seb; his best friend and wingwoman Andy certainly thinks so. But when a crisis with another member results in Orion joining the band and the two of them grow closer than Orion could have dreamed of, past and present begin to intertwine. And when things start to become real between Seb and Orion, he finds himself wondering whether a relationship with Seb is truly what he wants after all.

Jealous exes, asexual crises, and bubble tea abound in this heartfelt story of identity, self-acceptance, and love.
