Summary
Lark Levitt doesn't belong at Roosevelt College, at least in theory. Most students who attend the university come from wealthy families, and Lark is only a scholarship and a bus ride away from the trailer park where he lives. It's also a dream come true because dance is his life, and their program is one of the most prestigious in the country. But there are bumps in the road, like running into someone from his childhood.
Henry Albrecht survived childhood cancer and is now a Roosevelt quarterback and model student. His past is something his father insists Henry keep private, and it makes his remission feel like a dirty secret. He has few precious memories from that time in his life, except for a kid from the hospital who made his recovery manageable. A kid who's now at Roosevelt.
They decide to keep their distance. Easier said than done. Their renewed connection brings solace, clarity, and a raw intensity that awakens a spark between them. But hiding their history is exhausting, and soon enough their secret meetups are in danger of being exposed. Henry will need to face his fears—and his father—or lose the only person who's ever understood the real him.
Contains mature themes.

Low angst fluff
This is my new comfort read for anxious days. I really appreciated the low side of angst in this, and the predicability of the plot. Sometimes everything throws you off and unable to focus. But this one kept me entertained. I really enjoyed the performances. Both of the narrators are faves of mine and their voices soothed me. I can't be grateful enough. I will relisten to it many times, and will jump on the next one in the series.

Trash
Trash book with okay performances, Henry's production value was awful
Clearly written by a cis woman
