Summary
Ears burning with shame, Frank said, “And I get $500?”
“Yeah,” Gerard almost whispered.
Frank’s throat made a little nervous noise against his will. He cleared the sound away, meeting Gerard’s heavy gaze with what he hoped looked like professional resolve.
“I could really use that $500.”

Summary
Frank Iero is a NYC mobster with a nasty reputation for violence, he commands rooms just by his name being whispered in them.
One night he finds himself in a cesspool of an illegal action house, where goods over every shape, size, and origin are being sold to the highest bidder. He just wasn't able to help himself when the most beautiful man he has ever seen was drug up on stage.
Gerard felt panic flood through him as the gavel slammed down to the podium and word "SOLD" permeated his entire existence. His life had been uprooted and ripped apart when he and Mikey had been drugged and taken nearly four years ago. Even after years of abuse, a new fear blossomed as he was sold to some tattooed stranger, who eyed him up like a piece of meat.

Summary
Gerard didn’t think he would make it past the age of 25. It just never seemed to be in the cards for him. The world he lived in was not meant for people like him. That’s why at the age of 26, somehow still kicking, he found himself adrift, attending weekly group therapy sessions for suicide survivors and scrambling to make a list of all the reasons he shouldn’t try again.
He certainly never expected the newest, aggressively hostile member of the therapy group - Frank, who seems to hate everyone and everything on principle - to become the next bullet point on that list.

Summary
They've been best friends forever. All Frank ever wanted was for Gerard to conquer his insecurities and get the recognition, praise and attention he deserved. All Gerard ever wanted, was Frank.
When a last-minute trip right before their first year of college doesn't quite go as planned, Frank and Gerard's friendship starts to unravel. As they grow up and battle with careers, relationships and considerable trauma, it seems that things can only ever get worse when they've been ignoring one simple thing for more than a decade -- that they've been in love ever since the start.
[Or: the one where Gerard writes a screenplay, Frank's band goes double-platinum, and no matter how bad things between them get, they can't quite seem to stay apart.]
