Anthony and Raymond Taylor were left in their grandmother's care after their parents vanished. The brothers were opposites: Anthony was strong and healthy, while Raymond was frail and often ill. Anthony became his protector early on. When their mother resurfaced, she was addicted to drugs, suffering from AIDS, and unable to remember her past. Their grandmother lost everything trying to save her family, eventually moving the boys into a rundown apartment and teaching Anthony how to manage finances so he could raise Raymond if she died. To help, Raymond ran errands for a man claiming to be their father's friend. After their grandmother's death, fourteen-year-old Anthony raised Raymond and put him through college. Raymond was engaged when his fianc e was brutally attacked, Raymond murdered, and the woman abducted by an organized crime ring-one Anthony was secretly tied to. When Anthony tried to escape, he was framed and imprisoned. While incarcerated, he earned degrees and built a business, later joining a Federal Task Force upon release. Working undercover, Anthony rescued trafficked women, secretly sending them to safety. One rescue revealed Raymond had a daughter Anthony never knew. As the crime ring collapsed, Anthony finally found peace, marrying and creating the family he had always longed for.
