Summary
Pete McVries has always been lonely. At 25, running his own record shop, he’s not exactly the epitome of charisma or confidence. His days are a quiet routine of cataloging vinyl, ringing up customers, and observing the small-town life that passes through his shop, all while grappling with the longing for intimacy he can’t fully acknowledge. Beneath his sarcastic, self-deprecating exterior lies a heart that craves connection, even as internalized fears and societal expectations keep him at a distance. In a world where desire is both forbidden and irresistible, Pete navigates the monotony of his days with only music and fleeting fantasies to sustain him- until something unexpected threatens to disrupt his carefully ordered solitude- charming, golden-boy Ray Garraty.
The title is inspired by Role Models ‘Something, Somehow, Someday’ , a trope i think suits my
version of Mcvries very well.
