While mostly physically healed from a gay bashing
that almost left him dead, Taylor is still an emotional
mess. Not only does he have to deal with the fact that
his own brother was one of the attackers, but Taylor has
been disowned by his father as well. The only bright
spot in Taylor’s life is his small group of friends, but
even they have their own issues. Christian is now angry
all the time. James has to deal with his own
homophobic father. Devlin is wondering if he’ll ever be
able to measure up to others’ expectations. Worst of all,
Andy seems to be walking down a path that will only
lead to his destruction. Can the Haven House Coffee
Boys overcome all their obstacles? Or will the darkness
overcome them?

gazed down at the hospital parking lot. He still
couldn’t believe that just a week ago the area had been
filled with people instead of cars. Not just any people,
either, but his own classmates who were holding a vigil
for him.
He didn’t know if he wanted to laugh or cry over the
sheer irony of that. Who knew that to be popular, all he
had to do was get beaten nearly to death? How stupid of
him not to think of that before. But, then, in his defense,
