Guitars and Cages

Asher Logan is a bartender and a pretty wicked guitar player when he isn't wrecking his hands fighting in a cage. With a past he keeps hoping to outrun, Asher's been on a downward spiral for longer than he can remember. When his sister-in-law leaves Rory, his eight-year-old nephew, in his care, Asher is forced into two things he's never been good at: sobriety and responsibility. As he struggles to care for Rory, his own life begins to unravel.

When Asher's brother, Alex, turns up, presenting as a woman and announcing that her new name is Alexia, it further complicates matters, as does the arrival of his new neighbor, Conner. Both, in their own way, compel Asher to look at his own closely guarded views on sexuality.

When the siblings' older brother, Cole, reacts violently to Alexia, Asher is placed squarely in the middle of a family conflict which compels him to confront who he pretends to be versus who he really is.

Asher must choose who to trust and who to finally walk away from.
