An unforgettable, achingly honest contemporary queer romance about what happens when you find your first love while you’re still discovering who you really are. Morgan, an elite track athlete, is forced to transfer late in her senior year after it turns out being gay is against her private Catholic school’s code of conduct. Ruby loves nothing more than tinkering with her baby-blue 1970 Ford Torino, but most weekends she’s stuck living out the dreams of her mother, a former beauty queen, by competing in local pageants.
