When Trevor loses his parents in a sudden accident, his world collapses overnight. Taken in by his tough, sharp-tongued grandmother Mary, he grows up in a small house held together by grief, stubborn love, and the quiet routines that keep people going when everything else falls apart.

As the years pass, Trevor learns how to survive. He finds comfort in routine, loyalty in his best friend Sarah, and slowly begins to understand who he is. But when Mary's health begins to fail, Trevor is forced to face adulthood, responsibility, and loss all over again.

After her death, the house feels too empty. Too quiet. And then Alec arrives, a guarded handyman with his own history and a presence that slowly changes everything. What begins as simple repairs becomes something deeper, forcing Trevor to open himself to love, grief, and the terrifying possibility of happiness.

If you liked The Hearts Invisible Furies by John Boyne or The Great Believers by Rebecca Makkai, you'll feel right at home with Together. This is a deeply emotional LGBTQ coming-of-age novel about found family, long-term love, and learning how to live after loss.

Tender, raw, and deeply human, Together is a story about the people who stay, and the love that lasts even after everything changes.
