Chapter 1

Tobin James has always felt like they didn't quite fit in with the gender binary society around them. Like something was always missing as they struggled to come to terms with their gender identity. Living in the countryside only added to their sense of isolation and confusion. But everything changes when they meet Diamond Richmond, a vibrant and confident young woman from the city. Diamond sees Tobin for who they truly are, beyond the limitations of labels and societal expectations. She helps Tobin understand that their identity is valid and that they are exactly who they're meant to be. Tobin begins to understand that their identity is much more complex than they ever thought possible. As Tobin and Diamond's relationship grows, they must navigate the challenges of a world that often fails to recognize or understand nonbinary identities and often sees gender in narrow terms, while exploring the beauty and complexity of life beyond the binary.
