Ben Hollister and Dillon Bard have been friends since they were miscast as stepbrothers in a family sitcom at the age of ten. Despite Ben being the by-the-book, straight-laced half of the pair, he was cast as the rule-breaking scamp Joey Bridges, while Dillon was the one who tried to keep a lid on his antics.
At sixteen, the show’s producers created Bridges and Bard, a country/boy band group to boost ratings. The group morphed into a real-world music career that ended after obsessed fans nearly assaulted Ben and Dillon during a tour. Ben quit the business and retired to a winery in Sonoma while Dillon continued to tour.
Five years later, Ben’s watching as Dillon spirals out of control. Every drunk party, every drug fueled orgy plays out on social media, and Ben wonders why no one sees how much trouble Dillon is in. Then Dillon shows up at the winery, drunk, stoned, with no memory of having made the LA to Sonoma drive. All the feelings Ben has been trying to run away from come barreling back to the surface as he makes a desperate attempt to forgive Dillon while pleading with the man he loves to get help before it’s too late.
