It's 1985, but different....Frank Hope is a troubled high school senior. Being gay in a small Texas town in the eighties is hard enough, but Frank's also fighting to win back his ex-boyfriend, trying to graduate while hating school, and struggling to care for his sick mom. Despite his cynical nature, he tries to remain, well, hopeful. Everything he desires seems beyond his reach-until a newfound ability promises financial success and prestige. But success always comes with a price. What is Frank willing to sacrifice?Kasimir is-humans would call Kasimir a demon. Kasimir's people refer to themselves as the Eternals, who are engaged in a centuries' long conflict with the mortals from another world. But Kasimir, sensitive and idealistic, can't hate humans because he fell in love with a human boy named Frank while watching him through an interdimensional window when they were children. Now, as a priest scholar specializing in the study of humans, he's set on finding his old crush. However, his boy has grown into something feared by all beings of the Eternal Realm.Taking place in an alternative 1985 where demon essence fuels everything from mopeds to the space shuttle, this story of star-crossed lovers combines elements of fantasy and dystopian genres with gay romance while weaving together themes of surviving past trauma, breaking obsessions, and the transformative power of love.Warning: period homophobia, hate speech, suicidal ideation, past suicide, explicit language, explicit sex, violence, child abuse, drug abuse, smoking
