The Big Ask

A super-readable and accessible contemporary queer rom-com.

Harvey is popular, cool, plays soccer, and has been in a relationship with his girlfriend Summer for as long as anyone can remember.

Alfie is not popular, not cool, has a sick note so he doesn't have to play any sport, and has been in a relationship with his Xbox since forever.

So when Summer dramatically dumps Harvey just a few days before the school prom, no one is expecting Alfie to ask Harvey to be his date. Least of all Alfie. But sometimes amazing things can happen when you take a chance.
