One snowy February night, an innocent backrub opens the gates for girl-on-girl experimentation in this coming-of-age tale of erotica. College roommates Tegan and Gemma’s close friendship transitions to much more when girl love blossoms, and the exploration of sexual identity begins.

Tegan’s first time with Gemma further awakens her attraction to women. While Gemma has accepted her own lesbianism, she has yet to reveal her sexual orientation to her parents. Tegan’s convenient plan to help break the news involves telling them she is Gemma’s girlfriend.

The first two episodes of Girl Love Happens introduces a colorful cast of friends studying at an early 1990’s small-town Colorado campus. Attending weekly gin and tonic parties have earned the duo the nickname G&T, but mean girl April starts to sow the seeds of discord.

Once Gemma makes her lesbian proclamation in this romantic comedy, Tegan’s anxiety sets in because she knows coming out to her parents will be a harsh uphill battle, especially given her mother’s overly critical attitude. Can she and Gemma stay together if Tegan stays in the closet? Busybody friends are bound to put their romance to the test.
