A prisoner of guilt for so long…
Mike Taylor is the epitome of stability. His family is proud of his academic and athletic achievements at Georgia Tech, and despite the temptations of college life, he has maintained his moral standards.

“Typically, I have to purposefully set out to "think" about which songs would go with a particular book. But with Mike, it was natural. It was easy. I think that is a testament to how well the characters were developed.”
