Rhythm of the Hart

'Rhythm of the Hart' is a cozy, spicy, small-town holiday romance full of queer love and joy, unapologetically sexy fat men, Star Wars puns, and Pride.

Kieran Hart is the band director and only queer teacher in Redplains, Texas. Under budgetary pressure from a new principal determined to push him out, he's scrambling to find a way to fund another year for his band. If he can't find the money by Christmas break, he risks losing the music program altogether. When he sees his ex, Dominic, for the first time in years, his feelings threaten to distract him from his goal.

Dominic Ortiz is back in Redplains near the holidays, but he's not in the mood to celebrate. He's inherited his aunt's grocery store, to the chagrin of his estranged father. He's determined to sign the store over to his dad and get out of town as quickly as possible. But when he runs into Kieran and sparks fly, he may have a reason to stay. First, he'll have to stand up to his father and conquer his fear of attachment.

Zach Hudson is Kieran's assistant director and best friend. He's also just confirmed he's queer - by hooking up with Dominic. As he looks at the world through his new perspective, he quickly realizes he has a crush on Dominic... and Kieran.

With all three men caught in each other's orbit, will the formation of this love triangle throw a wrench in all their lives? Or is there new happiness to be found for all of them together? And can the three of them united find a way to overcome discrimination and save the band by Christmas?
