Concourse felt honest and real and was told in a raw and captivating way. If that’s the case, then Santino Hassell told not just a good story, but an unforgettable story. It’s been said a good story doesn’t give up all its secrets at once, instead teasingly guiding us through intense feelings, a gamut of emotions, wickedly leaving our hearts in tatters or shouting triumphantly at the turn of a page. “I don’t care what happens tomorrow if you give me this one moment.” Now, Ashton has to decide whether to once again envelop himself in his party-boy persona, or to trust in the only man who’s ever seen the real him. But before they can figure out what it all means-and what they want to do about it-the world drags them out of their haven, revealing a secret Val has kept for years. Between Val’s training for an upcoming fight and dodging paparazzi, they succumb to their need for each other. When Ashton flees his glitzy lifestyle, he finds refuge with Val in the Bronx. And then there’s the sexual attraction between them that Val tries so hard to ignore. As the son of Ashton’s beloved nanny, Val has always bounced between resenting Ashton and regarding him as his best friend. Val’s relationship with Ashton is complicated. Most people can’t imagine him wanting for anything, but Ashton yearns for friendship, respect, and the love of his best friend-amateur boxer Valdrin Leka. The black sheep of his wealthy family, he’s known for his club appearances, Instagram account, and sex tape.
