After years of bullying softspoken Skyler joins a support group for LGBTQ+ youth, he’s only hoping to feel a little less alone. Instead, he meets Mason—a quiet, starloving transfer student carrying bruises of his own. What begins as shared understanding in a circle of folding chairs slowly unfolds into first kisses under stubborn stars, gentle healing, and a love built on patience and trust.
From trembling hands to intertwined futures, Skyler is a tender coming of age romance about surviving cruelty, choosing vulnerability, and discovering that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is let someone see you—and stay.
