ANDI: For a decade, I've managed to dodge getting assigned to photograph my brother's rock band, Young Decay. It's only for ten days. Just long enough to capture their Halloween homecoming show run and while they find a permanent replacement.
I'm set for home, thinking I can avoid all the fears going home comes with. However, I don't expect to find someone who sees my darkness not as a flaw but as another beautiful part of who I am. And I especially don't expect that someone to be my brother's best friend, Young Decay's masked bassist, Mads Tourning.
Or as I know him . . . Maddox Keynes.
MADDOX: Since Young Decay's early days, my privacy has been a part of me I've clung to. They don't expect to find a monster running from his past, hoping people will forget he even exists. Yet, here I am heading home for our band's Halloween homecoming run.
I'm ready to shed my mask and finally breathe a little, and even to see the woman I've had a crush on for a decade. I never expected to one day have her in my arms, to share the darkest corners of my soul with.
And now that I have her . . . I'll do anything to keep her. Even if it means losing everything.
