Swimming to Freedom

De: Robbie Michaels

Once, swimming was a labor of love for Brandon. Now it’s just a labor. When Brandon’s competitive, domineering father decided to cash in on his son’s hobby, he sucked all the joy out of the sport for his son. Now Brandon’s father spends every ounce of his energy training Brandon for one purpose: Olympic gold and the chance to experience success vicariously through Brandon. Brandon falling in love with Tyler, another swimmer, was not part of his father’s plan. Luckily the two young men have Joel in their corner, a straight ally who helps them find time alone. When Brandon’s father finds out about the relationship, his reaction is sadly predictable, and soon, Brandon’s new home is beneath a bridge. He finds peace “swimming in the river, but fear as wild animals pass by his shelter during the night. But once again, his happiness cannot last. Torrential storms are threatening to wash away his future—maybe for good this time.
