About the book

X is a wily hustler and has a dilemma. The object of his affections is his roommate Andrew, who is confused about his sexuality. Meanwhile, X's other roommate - a seventeen-year-old precocious partyboy - is falling for X in a big way. The result is an old-fashioned (well, sort of) love triangle peppered with savage one-liners. A touching portrait of love and lust among three very different gay men.
