When juvenile delinquent, Denver Havoc, asked him to drop everything and leave his comfortable life behind, Beau Benton couldn't run after him fast enough. Living in a one room apartment above a bar with his childhood friend and crush was a dream come true. A dream he was willing to work impossibly hard to keep. Even though Denver could never look at him that way. Even though Denver thrives on the adrenaline of fast paced crime to earn money. Even though Denver's impulses land them in trouble more than often. What starts as Beau's ideal fantasy of playing house quickly becomes half a million credits in debt to The Suits- with their lives as collateral. Will they be able to pay back the money? Escape with their lives? Or will Denver's self-destructive personality and Beau's naivete sabotage them in the end?
