Alex Gaskarth was everything to him until he pushed him away. Their love was so strong, he never felt that again after leaving. Would they both risk it all for love?
Alex was in an unhappy marriage, with a woman he didn't love. All he thought about was when he was with his boyfriend, his true love Jack Barakat. Why did he push him away?
