The Tragedy of Jake LaMonica

For Jake LaMonica, steroids seem like a fast way to win the attention of athlete Angela Talbot. Doctor Louis Rousse offers Jake an opportunity -- get stronger faster.
Jake's wish is granted, but the results and side effects aren't exactly what Jake had expected. Lust, jealousy, and rage are all magnified within Jake's teenage body, and it's all he can do to keep control of himself.
Meanwhile, Jake's best friend T-Flo Hebert struggles with his sexuality while investigating a pair of cattle killings. He becomes entangled with detective Jimmy Pierce who is fighting his own battle for survival within the sheriff's office.
Relationships, realizations, and revelations leave Jake wondering if everything was worth the sting of the doctor's needle.
