BECOMING Brè (Book One) is the raw and unforgettable true story of a young, Black, gay man navigating a world defined by both fierce love and chaotic survival in Raceland, Louisiana.
Born into instability and raised by a loving guardian battling opioid addiction, Brè Morris (Puck) spent his early years as the family's secret crisis manager. From dodging dealer's dogs as a child courier to confronting the shame of his sexuality through neighborhood whispers of "Punk," Puck learned early that love and danger often live under the same roof.
When he returns to his biological family, he forges an unbreakable bond with his brother, Bree, and embraces a chaotic adolescence of small-town heists, hurricane survival, and secret relationships. But his world shatters in the space of seventeen days in March 2007: he finds the love of his life, Dion, and suffers the immediate, devastating loss of his brother, Bree.
This book is an unflinching testament to the resilience of the human spirit—a gripping journey that ends on the impossible precipice of grief and new love, leaving the reader asking: How do you build a future when your past has just been destroyed?
