Ten years of almost. One summer to finally get it right.
Eli Weston is chaos wrapped in charm—reckless jokes, wild ideas, and a habit of turning everything into a spectacle. But behind it all is the person no one sees: the one holding everyone together… while never choosing himself.
Leo Lazaro has always seen him.
For ten years, Leo has been Eli’s steady constant—the one who stayed through every heartbreak, every bad decision, every almost. They’ve spent a decade orbiting each other, stuck somewhere between friendship and something more.
Now they’re living together in Chicago for the summer, sharing an apartment while working a three-month residency at a drag cabaret.
Late nights. Shared space. One bed that suddenly feels too small.
And tension neither of them can ignore anymore.
So naturally, they do what any two emotionally repressed idiots would do:
They decide to set their best friend up instead.
Their meddling matchmaking turns into fake dates, staged meet-cutes, and romantic disasters—except somewhere along the way, the lines start to blur… and every “practice” moment feels a little too real.
But when Leo’s band lands a European tour in the fall, their summer comes with an expiration date.
After ten years of almosts, Eli and Leo have one last chance to decide:
Stay safely in the space between friendship and love…
or finally choose each other.
Last Call is a queer friends-to-lovers slow burn featuring meddling matchmakers, fake dating, mutual pining, forced proximity, found family, and a dual timeline with flashback chapters that reveal a decade-long love story—set against Chicago’s indie music scene and a chaotic drag cabaret.
