Synopsis: A little domestic bliss never hurt anyone…right? Charlie Dee is headed for burnout. They&’ve been burned before, both by their bio family and the now-defunct queer collective they once called home. So when they&’re asked to take a work trip outside the city, they jump at the chance. Sure, it&’s additional work with no additional pay, but it&’s also an excuse to get out of town—and out of their own head.That dream is shattered when Charlie opens the door to their supposedly private rental. There&’s a bird on the loose, circling the living room as it&’s chased by a cat, who is chased by a small child. The girl&’s parents, Hayden and Buffy, only manage to add to the chaos. They promise to leave first thing in the morning, but when a massive snowstorm rolls in, this overnight trip becomes a weeklong affair.Reluctantly charmed by this unfiltered—if forced—look at a loving, healthy family, Charlie begins to develop feelings for both Hayden and Buffy. And they both seem to be flirting back. But when a potential promotion lures Charlie back to the city, all three will have to decide where they go from here—and what it means to truly feel at home.
