The Rise of Tommy Boy

For eighteen years, it had been just Tommy Murphy and his mother.
His father was out of the picture. When his mother died, she left two
letters; one telling him the name of his father and another explaining
the son to his father. The young man travels to New York City to
meet his father, the famed heavyweight boxer, "Bruiser" Hunter, but
an unforeseen accident prevented that meeting. The boxer's brother
disappeared without a trace and was presumed dead. Overcome by
grief, Bruiser dropped out of sight without telling anyone.

Paddy O'Shay, his great-uncle, took the young man under his wing
and began training him to be a boxer like his father. He knew Bruiser
would contact him eventually. Six months later, they were still waiting
when fate stepped in and the whole family was reunited in the small
town of Spencer City, Connecticut.

Can two strangers have a normal father and son relationship?

Breanna Cone credits her Irish ancestry with the gift of gab that
helps her spin this tale of the special relationship between a father
and child. Regardless of your age, the love of a parent is a priceless
gift indeed.
