What if every heartbreak came with a chance to start over?
Devyn is a queer young woman desperate to escape the cycle of self-destruction she can’t seem to shake—failed relationships, failed dreams, failed attempts at becoming the person she thought she’d be. When she’s offered a key to a thousand parallel lives, each one a chance to begin again, she takes it. But the promise of finding the "right" reality quickly unravels as Devyn learns that even infinite possibilities can’t fix what’s broken inside.
Wyatt Kennedy’s Bolero, brought vividly to life with Luana Vecchio’s lush and evocative artwork, is not just a story of love and loss but a meditation on identity, addiction, and the terrifying freedom of reinvention. Both intimate and cosmic, it’s a tale for anyone who has ever wished for another chance—and wondered what it would truly cost.

"Every so often, a book crosses your path that serves
as both a burning reminder of what only comics can do and as a warning shot to
the rest of the industry, putting all of us on notice. What Kennedy and Vecchio
have created is a thrumming, heartfelt, bravado story that defies genre even as
it defies expectation. It is, genuinely,
glorious.
It is an over-used phrase in an era
of quick-copy and blurbs, but, in all sincerity, BOLERO is a must-read." -- Greg
