I catfished my best friend’s Dad in prison. But he'll never know, right? Scott For almost a decade, I've been the secret pen pal of a convict. My best friend’s father. All I wanted was to help bridge the gap between father and son. But the innocent act soon turns into more. Through our letters I am able to be the brave, confident guy I am in fact, not. So what if I fibbed a little when I sent him a false photograph of me? And reinvented myself in those letters? Afterall, what’s the harm when Griff will never be released from prison? Griff I spent two decades behind bars, but nothing could have prepared me for Scott. When I get out on parole, I find the little liar is nothing like he portrayed. But I’m not mad. I prefer the hot, stuttering, mess that he is. Beneath the glasses, braces, and fun size package, he is far from tame when it counts. I just have one problem. My relationship with Scottie might thwart my reconciliation with my son. But how can I choose between them? One’s my flesh and blood. The other is my heart and soul.
