Calvin Kildare is lonely and lost. It seems that everyone around him is in love and has a direction for their life. With senior year starting, he’s never felt so out of place. When the guy he’s had a small crush on starts paying him attention, he can’t help but think he’ll be the one for him. However, things are never that easy, and Calvin finds himself having to navigate situations that are bound to test his limits.

Three high school seniors. Three best friends. Three good swimmers. Three horny teenagers.

The plot is pretty obvious, but the twists and turns will sometimes surprise you and sometimes delight you.

Join Rick, Randy, and Mike as they grow closer than ever before in the last months of senior year as they learn things about themselves that shock them, excite them, and drive them forward into manhood. This is a coming of age story that is shared by all three friends.

A story of gay life, partly set in San Francisco during the late 1970’s. But all the gay men who moved there during that time came from someplace else, and in this story, Michael, as an adolescent in his home town, navigates the tugs of two conflicting religious strains within his family, while at the same time coming to terms with his sexuality. As you will see, in his twenties he escapes to San Francisco—but is it freedom that he finds there?

A young teenager meets a stranger in the street and almost against his better judgement and certainly opposite to the warnings he'd been brought up with, not to talk to strangers, he ignores the advice and his own apprehensions. At the stranger's house he accepts a somewhat peculiar proposition which allows him to liberate the secret he's been harbouring.

Tim, an honor student from Los Gatos, grapples with heartbreak and self-reflection after being ghosted by Thet, a closeted blue-collar guy from South St. Louis. As Tim wrestles with anger and confusion, a dinner with his grandmother leads to a powerful coming-out moment. Their heartfelt exchange helps Tim process past trauma with his father and recognize the secrecy and pain others around him carry. When he later spots Thet out with a girl, he sees through the act—and instead of lashing out, reaches out with unexpected compassion, hoping Thet will one day accept who he is.

They meet at a diner that serves bad coffee and better silence. Two strangers orbiting the same sleepless hours, held together by routine and maybe something more. Jamie draws to breathe. Luca edits video to fill the hours. Neither of them means to start unraveling, but in the late-night hush between classes and expectations, something begins. A glance. A conversation. A quiet they both understand. This isn’t love. Not yet. It’s just maybe. And sometimes, maybe is the loudest thing in the world.

Two strangers meet by chance—one, a high school student lost under the rain; the other, a young man lost in the city.
Bit by bit, they learn about each other, finding warmth where neither expected it.
But when fate steps in, and difficult choices must be made, will life pull them apart… or find a way to keep them together?

Stephen Zamora has been picked on by his peers since his first day of school almost eight years ago. School starts again in about five weeks. Stephen is not looking forward to it. A new school, in a new town. A fresh start. A whole new set of tormentors await him. And one boy who will make his life bearable again.

Kane and Ty have been friends for a while — good friends, but not the kind who talk about their feelings. All that changes one summer afternoon when Kane wipes out on his skateboard.

Kane’s Kiss is a warm, funny, and unexpectedly tender story about friendship, trust, and identity. It’s not a romance. It’s not about falling in love. It’s about the courage it takes to ask questions, and the kind of friend who doesn’t flinch when you ask them. It’s about growing up surrounded by noise and pressure, and finding moments of quiet honesty where you can just be who you are — even if you’re still figuring that out.

This is a story about a young man who was caught between his mother and his father. He had to make a difficult decision and dreaded doing so. But then he encountered another young man who seemed confident about everything—at least on the surface. Their odd friendship developed before they eventually had to part ways.
