Provincetown: Book Three

As vain as he is beautiful, Nino Santos happily lives life waiting for the next ferry full of fairies to bring him new conquests. As long as they aren’t hirsute, he’s all in. So he's shocked to wake up after a beach party he cannot remember with a hairy naked man lying next to him.

Teddy Miller doesn’t remember the “Bear Week” party either, much less the Abercrombie & Fitch model wannabe next to him. Teddy doesn’t give two cents about appearances, but guys like Abercrombie don’t return the favor. That’s why he prefers men with extra fur and padding over carbon copy clones of perfection—a type of man Teddy is far too familiar with.

When Nino and Teddy glimpse each other the next morning, it’s loathing at first sight. Instead of exchanging phone numbers, they exchange insults and vow never to see each other again. In Provincetown, however, escaping a trick best forgotten isn’t easy. Mutual friends and chance circumstances keep Nino and Teddy in each other’s orbit. But are they fighting each other or the attraction growing between them? The answer lies amid Provincetown’s windswept dunes and the night neither of them can recall.

Nicolas Sayers, ayant besoin d'argent pour l'université, prend un emploi comme assistant de l'infâme photographe Damian Wolfe. Il s'agit juste prendre des photos, pas vrai ? Faux. Alors que Nick n'a jamais remis en cause le genre d'homme qu'il est ou ce qu'il veut vraiment dans la vie, travailler pour Damian lors d'une séance photo sur le thème du BDSM lui ouvre les yeux sur toutes sortes de possibilités sexuelles, et beaucoup d'entre elles incluent le beau M. Wolfe.

Damian a de sérieux doutes quant à s'impliquer avec un homme plus jeune qui ne connaît rien sur le mode de vie BDSM, mais l'approche audacieuse et pleine d'humour de Nick face à de nouvelles expériences est trop séduisante pour y résister. Bien qu'il sache que ce pourrait être une erreur, Damian prend Nick dans sa vie.

Faire l'expérience de la perte de contrôle, de la soumission et la douleur excite Nick plus qu'il n'aurait jamais cru possible. Avec Damian, il apprend à connaître ses propres désirs profondément enfouis et découvre que l'abandon de tout contrôle ne le rend pas faible que quelqu'un d'autre prenne le contrôle de son plaisir sexuel l'augmente, tout simplement. Et l'inverse est vrai pour Damian : le contrôle l'excite. Ils se mettent alors à explorer ces limites sensuelles ensemble, ne s'attendant pas à trouver l'amour en chemin.
