Ethan Harker is the son of The Prophet, the stern, demanding leader of a small Southwestern polygamous community. Ethan has been groomed to one day take his place as the leader of this isolated cult.

But things happen that compel Ethan to flee his stifling community and find his way in the world beyond it. Totally out of his depth, he is sheltered by a remarkable group of people from a loving and accepting church. From them, he learns what family truly means and begins to construct a life free from the restrictions he’s grown up with. Little by little he dismisses the assumptions he was taught about the “evil” people in the outside world.

Amid all this, Ethan realizes something about himself when he meets rapper Kyan, a boy his age. Although he’s been brought up to fear and hate members of Kyan’s race, he can’t help falling in love with Kyan. Fueled by a new understanding and new friends, Ethan gains the strength and courage to conquer the confusing world he has been thrust into.

Jason Kennly muss sich das graue Halsband einfach näher ansehen, das er bei einer Science-Fiction-Messe im Verkaufsraum entdeckt hat, obwohl er es sich von seinem knappen Studentenbudget auf keinen Fall leisten kann. Aber anschauen kostet ja schließlich nichts. Doch dann entdeckt er etwas, was er sich sogar noch dringender wünscht als das graue Halsband: den Besitzer des Lederwarenstandes, Henry Durand, der darauf besteht, dass Jason das Halsband anprobiert. Als Henry Jason bittet, sich ihm für eine Bondage-Demo als Model zur Verfügung zu stellen, stimmt Jason trotz seiner mangelnden Erfahrung als Sub zu und verbringt letztendlich ein unverbindliches Wochenende damit, zusammen mit einem praktisch völlig fremden Mann seine „perverse“ Seite zu erforschen.

Dann ist die Messe vorbei, Jason und Henry gehen ihrer getrennten Wege, und das wirkliche Leben beginnt wieder. Mit seiner Identität als devoter Mann und Masochist klarzukommen, fällt Jason nicht leicht.

Jason möchte nichts weiter, als mit Henry zusammen zu sein – aber was, wenn das bedeutet, dass er sein Sklave werden muss?
