Publisher's Synopsis
Brody was back with his high school sweetheart, Geo, and he believed that this time would be different. But Geo isn't a one-man guy, and he made Brody feel ashamed of the side of himself that never fully grew up. Even though Brody wants to act Little sometimes, he knows Geo isn't going to ever be a good Daddy for him. But when Geo takes off, leaving him alone again, he begins to believe the lies he's heard about being a sick freak who will never be loved. To numb the hurt and humiliation, he turns to alcohol. It's the only way to survive each day.
Aaron runs a junk removal service and salvage store, helping people clear out attics or get rid of stuff prior to moving. When he runs into Jesse, he offers to take some junk off his hands that he's getting rid of for a friend going through a hard time.
The stuff can all be sold or donated to the local shelter, all of it except a few "personal" items that probably didn't mean to get batched in with the rest. When Aaron tries to return the valuables, he finds a broken boy who just needs some love and attention.
And that's exactly what Aaron is capable of offering.
