Elijah Goldsoworthy!
When an exchange program takes him from Canada to Australia, he steps into more than just a warmer climate-he's given a chance to redefine himself. Fresh from heartbreak and still haunted by his past, Eli begins exploring his fluid sexuality and rediscovering his identity.
A walk on the beach introduces him to Rikki, a sharp, confident girl, and soon after, he literally collides with Lewis, a science-loving boy in a bucket hat. Their unexpected connection feels strangely comforting, and Lewis introduces Eli to his friends: Rikki, Cleo, and Emma. When Eli mentions he briefly met Rikki, she quips, "Well, I still don't want to see you in that bikini."
As the chaos of being seniors in high school unfolds, Eli and Lewis grow closer. Lewis's calm, nerdy demeanor brings Eli a sense of peace he hasn't felt in years. While Eli isn't looking for romance, unspoken feelings begin to stir, though he doubts they'll ever be reciprocated. At the very least, he'll leave Australia with memories to take back home.
