Overview

Leonard ""Leo"" Saeger lives under the shadow of privilege and expectation. In Tyner, his wealthy father demands perfection on the field, in life, in every way that denies who Leo really is. Then he meets Christopher Wallace, the confident son of a professional, middle-class family from nearby Westridge. Chris knows who he is, knows what he wants, and isn't afraid to love openly. For Leo, their bond is the first glimpse of freedom and the beginning of a secret relationship that will test them both. Through high school, Leo struggles to balance his father's suffocating demands, the lure of older mentors, and a reckless choice that leads to an unexpected pregnancy. But nothing compares to the love he shares with Chris. Together they dream of a future, exchange rings, and believe in forever-until tragedy strikes, tearing them apart and leaving Chris broken, haunted by the words Leo left behind: ""Don't let the bastards win."" As Chris ventures through a career in college football coaching after Leo, he finds the son Leo fathered in his exploration and finds new love, proving that he did not ""let the bastards win.""
