"College might just be as taboo as we'd never thought, right Zach?"
Beau Price, nineteen-year-old social butterfly, and Zachary Righteous, twenty-year-old blazing heterosexual, have been friends for eleven years and have just finished the rough tides of high school (well, Beau has) and are finally reaching peak young-adulthood. Their journey begins in a fresh first year of typical American college; you know, the frat houses and skimpy bikini girls and, we can't forget, the wild parties. But unlike his friend's definition of college, in the coming years Beau aspires to not only strive in his double degree of dancing and education, but to also find comfort in the biggest question of his life; does he like men or women? And suddenly, as if some narrator with mysterious intentions decided to make his life a living hell, Beau Price finds himself a hopeless romantic. With the pressures of a dragon of a dance coach; an abusive girlfriend; a hard time figuring out if he might just be in love with Zachary; and the mood swings of basic college bitches, can Beau survive? And finally, towards the peak of it all, who well prevail in this giant game of tug of war, him being the centre of the rope and his love interests on opposing teams?
As Claire aims to leave her oppressive stepfamily behind, she befriends Zion. Will he be her ticket to freedom or a distraction in achieving her dreams?
