Summary
Finnley Montgomery, a 22-year-old with a passion for music and history, struggles with philophobia, a fear of romantic attachment that has stemmed from past heartbreak. Though he longs for connection, his fear of emotional vulnerability keeps him distant from others. Supported by his family and close friends, Finnley faces an internal battle between his desire for love and his fear of getting hurt. As Finnley battles self-doubt and emotional scars, he meets a boy who is willing to do whatever it takes to break through Finnley’s emotional walls and earn his trust, showing patience, understanding, and an unwavering commitment to proving that Finnley’s heart is worth the risk. Finnley must decide if he can overcome his past and take a chance on love. Can he let go of his past and open his heart to love again, or will his fear keep him from trusting?
