These boys and their love story filled up my heart - I couldn't stop reading β€” Amie Kaufman

David used to be in a band with his best friends Chance and Eli. Now the band, Darkhearts, is super famous, with a legion of fans - and David's out of the band and back in high school, brooding over everything he lost out on.

Then tragedy throws David and Chance back together. Chance is everything David is not: a swaggeringly drop-dead gorgeous rock god. And yet, spending more time alone with Chance, David has to admit he actually misses being with his old friend - and maybe he feels something more. Can you mix music with love?

An enemies-to-lovers gay romance, perfect for fans of Simon James Green, Heartstopper and Adam Silvera.
