To The Clouds

Amaya June has a theory: clouds can carry storms and still stay afloat. Maybe love works the same way.

An autistic drama student with a talent for turning cloud facts into relationship advice, Amaya prefers scripts to people. Social rules are exhausting, dating is confusing, and the last thing she wants is to spend her senior year pretending to be in love with the most infuriating boy at school.

Peter Bay is charming, flirtatious, and impossible to ignore. Cast as her romantic lead in A Midsummer Night's Dream, he's everything Amaya avoids-confident, popular, and relentlessly teasing. But beneath his cocky grin is someone who remembers her favourite ice cream, notices when she's overwhelmed, and sees the parts of her she's spent years trying to hide.

As rehearsals turn into late-night gelato runs, stolen glances, and feelings neither of them expected, Amaya begins to wonder if she's been wrong about Peter all along.

Maybe people are like clouds too. The closer you look, the more they change.

A witty, heartfelt new adult romance about first love, neurodivergence, theatre, and discovering that sometimes the person who gets under your skin is the one who understands you best.
