‘Yamilet is hoping for a fresh start at Slayton Catholic School after being bullied by her ex- best friend for being gay. Yami, who feels hurt and vulnerable, decides no one at her new school should know she is gay in fear that history will repeat itself. However, Yami is overwhelmed with other responsibilities that her strict mother tasks her with, so eventually her secret is destined to come out.’

Yami prefers to be known for her killer eyeliner, not for being one of the only Mexican kids at her new, mostly white, rich Catholic school – or for being gay. So after being outed by her ex-best friend, before transferring to Slayton Catholic, Yami decides to lie low, make her mum proud and definitely NOT fall in love. The thing is, it’s hard to fake being straight when Bo, the only openly queer girl at school, is so annoyingly perfect. And smart. And cute. So cute.
