A Love Story That Doesn't Look Away
Abbi and Jordan are the queer couple who seems to have it all: jobs they love; a storybook romance in a safe, ethically non-monogamous relationship; a beautiful home in Baltimore; and soon, a baby on the way. But just as their happiness reaches an unimagined peak, they are confronted with a pandemic, medical flukes, and rampant racism.
Now, the edges of their perfectly woven picture of life begin to fray, unraveling thread by thread.
This isn’t your typical romance novel.
Abbi and Jordan seem to have it all - until they don't. This is the raw, unfiltered journey of what happens when love meets loss, when hope crashes into heartbreak, and when two people must decide if their bond can survive the unthinkable.
