7 parts Ongoing Tyler Thompson seems to have it all-a star athlete, popular with friends, and admired by everyone at school. But there's one thing Tyler hasn't figured out yet: himself. Behind his easy smile and perfect image, Tyler is hiding a secret that even he's afraid to admit-he has feelings for other boys.

Eli challenges everything Tyler thought he knew about himself, forcing him to confront the parts of his identity he's been keeping in the dark.
As Tyler's world starts to unravel, he faces tough choices: Will he stay silent to protect his image, or will he find the courage to live his truth, no matter the cost? With the fear of losing friends, disappointing family, and the uncertainty of what comes next, Tyler must decide if he's ready to stop hiding and embrace the real him.
In Breaking Free, one boy's journey of self-discovery reveals that the hardest battles we fight are often within ourselves-and that being true to who you are is the only way to be truly free.
