Nearly 20 years in the making, the award winning story of "Jacob" comes to the publishing world. Author Brett Scott Ermilio wrote the tale of "Jacob" when he was just 19 years old. Soon after it won Sherill C. Corwin Writing Award for Best Screenplay. Optioned and nearly made a feature film numerous times over the past two decades, Brett finally decided to share the riveting dramatic tale, in this, his first fiction release. The family fiction novel boasts intense drama, intrigue, love and inspiration. "Jacob" is Brett Scott Ermilio's seminal release for the "Extraordinary Character Collection." Ryan and Jacob Crestwood are brothers in name, but are as opposite as oil and water. After the death of their father and the commitment of their mother to a mental ward, Ryan is forced into a fatherly role to his younger brother, Jacob. But even as they co-exist in one home, Ryan has yet to discover just how extraordinary his quirky brother actually is. One the outside the teenager is combative, bright and creative. But inside, Jacob is concealing darkness and imagination, two conflicting extremes that may tear him apart. When Claire comes breezing into town, both Crestwood boys are instantly entranced by her free-spirit and her lost soul. But as Ryan and Claire grow closer, a fierce passion lurks just beneath the surface from Jacob's veil of creativity. Soon fantasies become delusions, dreams impede reality and a powerful infatuation threatens to shatter the broken family for good.
