It's October 27th 2016, and in a small home in Chicago, Frankie Garcia is making the realization of a life time on his 16th birthday. His mother was a promiscuous woman, and the man who has raised him their entire life isn't his father. Of course, that makes the man's rejection of him as a trans male easier, but it doesnt stop the pain from the lies that he's been fed his entire life. Where was his father? Who was his father? Would he be accepting and loving, or would he shut down his life to a child? The search begins, and Frankie tries desperately to find the man who helped bring him in this world. Any escape from his home is a welcome escape, and he was going to take any lead he could get, even if it leads nowhere.

A recently out divorcee must explore his identity and how to not be the straight-acting man he's been his whole life. Just when he has found his footing, a flamboyant trans man jumbles up his ideas about what it means to be gay, to be masculine, to be a man. *** Edwin realises he's gay at the ripe age of 56. Coming-out should set him free to finally explore his sexuality, but honestly? He feels lost. He's getting a divorce after thirty years of marriage, half of his friends turn out to be homophobes, he feels an interloper in LGBT places, and for the first time ever, he's living alone. His only remaining certainty - the one he's risked everything for - is that he's attracted to men. To affirm his sexuality, Edwin focuses on everything masculine and seeks out gay men like him. But just when he finds his footing, a flamboyant gay man jumbles up all his ideas about what it means to be gay, to be masculine, to be a man. If Edwin wants to find his community, he'll need to re-examine what it takes to belong. *** Cover by the amazing @SmokeAndOranges! Cover image found by @galaxiesuniverses
