A young gay man escaping a dismal future as stipulated by his father. A cow hand forced into parenthood through a series of losses. What does the universe have against them? Jason Langston has lived the life of an Army brat from the day he drew his first breath in a military hospital. After years of anxiety over his sexual orientation, Jase finally accepts he's gay, though he knows his family will never support him. As graduation from high school draws near, Jase is given an order: enlist in the Army to follow in his father's footsteps. Jase knows he's not cut out for Army life, so he decides it's time to spread his wings and fly before his fate is sealed-forcibly. Daniel Johnson strives to live a simple life, but it seems fate is conspiring against him at every turn. After an unsuccessful attempt at a career in the military, he returns to Holloway, Virginia, and takes a job running a cattle operation for an old friend... something familiar and comforting in a world of pain and disappointment. One day, a green kid arrives in Holloway, Virginia, and life is flipped on its ear for both men. Jase is unfamiliar with life on the farm, and Danny is fighting the draw of the younger man at every turn. Why would destiny put these two men in the same place at the same time? Is Jase the final straw to break Danny for good, or is Jase the answer to the prayers of... The Broken Man?
