It captures the essence of heartwarming fiction, showcasing that there's no age limit on love. When 79-year-old Arthur Edwards gathers his family to share an important revelation—his decision to come out as gay after a lifetime in the closet—no one is prepared for the impact it has. His 21-year-old grandson, Teddy, also has a secret: he's gay and developing feelings for his colleague Ben, but struggles with the idea of coming out, especially in light of Arthur's announcement. As Arthur and Teddy navigate their identities, first loves, and family dynamics, they must confront the challenges of acceptance within their community.

This sweet story sensitively explores the difficulties and joys of being true to oneself, resonating with readers beyond the LGBT+ community. Many express a desire to have read something like this during their own journeys of self-discovery.
