In a bustling tourist city along the Amazon River, where exquisite food and vibrant culture thrive under the relentless humid heat, Professor Paulo Garcia feels adrift—until a chance encounter pulls him into Tiago Mendes's flow. A former college student from a decade ago, he returns after years of traveling upriver, escaping a painful secret.

A relentlessly confident Personal Trainer, Tiago possesses an unselfconscious magnetism and a quiet wisdom that makes Paulo feel genuinely seen for the first time in years.

Rekindling the friendship with Paulo, the man who taught Tiago through their vivid past book talks that he mattered, Tiago tries to teach the Professor a lesson on quitting trying to recreate his older self and figure himself out as an older man.

When friendly lines are crossed and the men lose control of how deep their desire runs, Paulo finds himself caught between two currents—his established life as Head of the Literature Department with his colorful found family of friends, and what his heart demands: to be at Tiago's side—and at his feet.

Finding Our Footing explores whether we find ourselves by standing on firm land or letting the current carry us toward the unknown.
