Change is always hard…

But sometimes, you need to take a chance…

Alex Prentice never thought his life would turn out like this…

He started working for a bad man at just thirteen, and now, six years later, he’s ready for a change.

He wants something good in his life.

He wants something for himself.

Alex went the only place he could think of: He went to the police.

He never expected the Detective to be assigned to his case to be a man like Scott Henderson, with eyes that looked into him… through him.

An older man who showed him compassion and care… the first he’d experienced in a long time.

A man who would be his protector until his court date.

A man he never thought he’d take a chance on…

A chance at love.

Scott Henderson thought it would just be another day on the job.

The experienced Detective didn’t realize what he was getting into when he took on Alex Prentice’s case.

The boy, just nineteen, was testifying. He’d need to be protected. He’d need to be guided.

He’d need more than some slimy lawyer could or would provide.

But when he sees the striking boy sitting alone in that interrogation room, he’s taken aback.

Something inside him swells, and he feels an immense sadness for the life the young man has lived.

Scott thought Alex would just be another guy raised on the streets, someone to deal with, a job.

He never expected that Alex would turn into so much more than that.

He never expected that he would take a chance on Alex…

A chance at love.
