From the Back Cover

Cortland Hunt has made some dangerous mistakes. Now he's waiting quietly for those mistakes to catch up with him. Ian Tanner coasts through life denying the spark of anger beneath his laid back exterior. When school politics and personal lives become a battleground, the pair find that what they share may just be their only safe haven.

Breaks is the story of two young men discovering who they were, who they are, and who they will become. It's a love story . . . but a bit broken.
