At eighteen, Emmy Clark has just had her gender confirmation surgery and is determined to have her first post-op experience with a man. But she never imagined it would be with Dodger Steadman, her older brother’s dark haired and hot, though very unfriendly roommate. Despite their agreement to keep their relationship confined to the physical, Emmy comes to believe they could share something deeper. But in heartbreaking fashion, it becomes apparent that no matter how beautiful and feminine she is, Dodger will never see a trans girl like her as more than someone to share his bed with.

Fast forward six years, and Emmy is living stealth in Seattle, working as a model and pursuing a degree in psychology. But the life she’s chosen to live is upended when she’s fired from her modeling agency after being outed as trans. Meanwhile, Dodger is now going by Jake, having shelved his nickname for what’s on his birth certificate. Recently divorced, with two kids he adores, and running a multi-billion dollar company, his life appears fulfilling to anyone on the outside, but it’s not lost on him that it’s emptier because Emmy isn’t in it.

When Emmy and Jake unexpectedly meet again, they pick up where they left off, sparks still flying. If they have any hope of making it further than they did the first time around, though, then they have to face what broke them apart six years ago, no matter how painful those truths may be.

As they fight for a second chance, and Emmy learns more about Jake’s complicated past and present, someone seems intent on destroying Emmy’s life and dragging what she’d rather forget out into the open. But in trying to face this threat on her own, she may end up destroying the relationship she and Jake are working so hard to build. In the end, it will be up to both of them to decide if love really does conquer all.
