✦ Synopsis


After a hard life filled with experiences he'd rather not remember but can't forget, Brett Taylor decides he doesn't need anyone or anything. He gets a job at a bar in a nothing little town where he can fish and race dirt bikes and hide from the world. So naturally as he's walking across the parking lot at his new job, reminding himself how self-reliant he is, he meets someone he can't shove aside.

Brett can't help but admire Cory Butana, the kid who lives above the bar where his father is the principal bartender. Unwanted by either parent, the sweet, personable Cory grew up neglected and hungry for affection. Now he's determined to make something of his life, even if he has to work himself ragged to do it.

Cory shouldn't have to suffer like Brett did, and Brett wants to lend a hand. But when their relationship evolves into something Brett isn't ready to need, he reacts... and the consequences may destroy their fledgling future. With scars like theirs, forgiveness is never easy.
