Matthew was raised in a fundamentalist christian town called Redding, California. He grew up with condescending,bigoted , homophobic christian parents. So, you can imagine his joy of finding out he was gay. So what does he do? He runs away to his brother in San Francisco. There he meets up with Issac, a man who believes he deserves love even though the church doesn't agree. But what will happen if his parents don't agree? Can he live in peace away from the church? Romance will come in later. Bit of a slow burn.
