Tom, a twenty-six-year-old macho, heterosexual guy, and his like-minded best friend, ex-college roommate and baseball teammate find themselves in an unexpected and unique situation. Tom?s friend David breaks both of his arms in a rollerblading accident. Through default, Tom must take on the responsibility of caretaker for the six weeks David is completely incapacitated with both arms in full casts. At the onset, Tom doesn?t consider David?s every need, and that together with opportunity, late night TV football, and too much beer leads them to sexually zigzag off the main road for the first time in their lives. Amid the often humorous situations and the banter they exchange, these straight guys are shocked, confused, and a little psychologically traumatized when they discover that ?being straight? can be relative. The details of that summer offer the reader vivid, vicarious experiences of adventure, adventurous sex, and an up-close look into the lives of the mega rich and their toys. The storyline shares an account of the unique circumstances that bring two straight guys to sexually deviate, and then describes the avalanche of personal, social, and psychological consequences that are precipitated by that spontaneous, summertime foray. Tom, the protagonist in the story, battles the antagonist?his conscience?to identify, understand, and accept these experiences as no more than simply explorative, and then enable him to move on with his life without allowing his newly discovered sexual dalliances to lead him to lasting psychological trauma. Best suited for adult readers. Explicit sexual content.
