Lea is an insecure young woman pursuing a career as an artist in New York City.  When her mother dies suddenly, Lea is given charge of her younger brother Evan, and the two of them must live together in Lea’s one-bedroom Harlem apartment.  Evan has become estranged from his sister through the years, and his frustration and grief make him prone to violent outbursts.

 

The only comfort Lea can find away from this turbulent scenario is in her best friend Logan.  Despite the fact that Logan is gay, he and Lea share a special bond that often seems to run deeper than mere friendship.  However, Logan quickly finds himself at odds with Evan when the boy becomes involved with a dangerous gang that is responsible for a spree of brutal attacks targeting gay men in the community.

Despite Lea’s best efforts at reconciliation, the rift between the characters widens, and Lea finds herself perilously close to losing both her brother and her soul mate.  She is forced to confront her personal demons head on, and each character must fight to make sense of what they mean to one another.  They must learn what it is to love… and how to be a family against all odds.
