Publisher's Synopsis
A slow-burn, age-gap M/M romance novel about reaching for a dream ... and finding the person who'll give you a boost.
When an adult-film director dropped her card in Manny's guitar case, he was mildly flattered. But he was busy with all his other jobs, and a card wasn't money, so he forgot about it. When her partner showed up to say they were interested in putting Manny in front of the camera, he started thinking about it again. Irv thought the spinning trainer was interested. But after a couple weeks without contact, busy with other projects, he forgot about it. Then, weeks later, Manny called to ask if they could talk. He wanted to be a legit actor. Irv said he could learn some skills, if he paid attention and took it all seriously. It turned out that Manny was very good at paying attention. He took everything seriously, and he learned fast. Pitching him to a casting agent was basically the same as waving goodbye; if the guy got enough legit work, he'd walk away from porn, and from Irv. A year later, Manny was heading to Mexico to shoot a new historical series. Before he left, he was determined to see if the vibe between him and Irv added up to anything. If it did, Manny wasn't about to walk away. Adult situations, themes, and language; 80300 words and a happy ending.
