In the quiet village of Colmar, France, where cobblestone streets wind along peaceful canals and life moves with the rhythm of the seasons, André has always known his place.
He is the responsible son, the one who helps his mother, looks after his younger siblings, and finds comfort in the simple things: the fields surrounding his home, late nights by the river, and the familiar warmth of the village he has never left.
André has never been the kind of person to chase adventure.
Until Leo arrives.
A charming Welsh boy with a French connection, Leo brings a different kind of energy into André's carefully controlled world. He is fearless where André is cautious, spontaneous where André is careful, and somehow he sees the parts of André that everyone else overlooks.
A simple bike ride through the countryside turns into stolen moments by the river, late-night conversations, and feelings neither of them expected.
But their worlds are not as simple as they seem.
With one boy longing for freedom and another afraid of stepping outside the life he knows, André must decide whether he is willing to risk everything he has ever known for a love he never saw coming.
Because sometimes the person who changes your life is the one who makes you brave enough to finally live it.
A story of first love, self-discovery, family, and the courage to follow your heart.
