This is a contemporary love story - or uplifting 'bromcom' ? ideal for fans ofHoneybeeandHeartstopper.\r\n\r\nSet in Brisbane during Australia's 2017 same-sex marriage plebiscite, 26-year-old Sean Preston confronts his internalised homophobia and guilt, eventually learning to accept the most important love of all - the love for oneself.\r\n\r\nWhen Sean's relationship of three months comes to a humiliating end, he vows to never become emotionally attached to anyone again. Sean lives through a revolving door of hook-ups, stimulants and booze. The rest of his life is also a mess. His job as a professional online troll moderator doesn't help his mental health. Then there's his best friend, former girlfriend Abby, who still resents Sean for coming out. Even his own mother seems to hate him. Caught between Abby's narcissism and his mother's constant allusions to Sean having ruined her life, Sean reels from one crisis to another. And yet a strange connection with Meredith, an 85-year-old nursing home resident, somehow unites the worst of Sean's tangled identity crisis.\r\n\r\nWhen Sean meets William, who is shy and naive about the gay dating scene, an unlikely friendship blossoms. Sean begins to understand the value of friendship and true connection, and slowly dares to hope for a kinder life for himself. But how to begin?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTE FROM SELLER:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv id=\":1fi\" class=\"Am aiL Al editable LW-avf tS-tW tS-tY\" hidefocus=\"true\" aria-label=\"Message Body\" g_editable=\"true\" role=\"textbox\" aria-multiline=\"true\" tabindex=\"1\" style=\"direction: ltr; min-height: 286px;\" spellcheck=\"false\" aria-owns=\":1i1\" aria-c=\"\" aria-expanded=\"false\"\u003e\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\" class=\"gmail_signature\" data-smartmail=\"gmail_signature\"\u003e\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirect from Manufacturers \u0026amp; Suppliers:\u003c\/strong\u003e We source our products directly from approved manufacturers and suppliers, ensuring top-notch quality and competitive prices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNationwide Shipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e Although our business is based in Wellard, we ship from various locations across Australia for efficient delivery to your doorstep.
