Finding love in a digital age can prove to be difficult when danger looms in every corner of the net.  Still, every dark place has a silver lining.  Deep emotional connections can be started with a virtual message. But meeting that person in the real world for the first time...is a whole different story.

Matthew wasn't interested in girls or popularity; he just wanted to make it through high school in one piece.  He had downloaded the app in hopes of finding someone to connect with. That was how he met Jay.  Now, he's questioning everything he knows about love as he throws caution to the wind.

But, caution isn't always a bad thing when in the dangerous worlds of love and the Internet.
