If homosexual activities are offensive to you, this story may not be suitable. The towns mentioned are real, but all characters are fictional and not intended to represent any real individuals. Nineteen-year-old Daniel is driving his new sports car from Cincinnati to Nashville for college when he spots a well-built hitchhiker, Mike, on the highway. In a moment, Daniel devises a game plan and offers the thirty-something Mike a ride—with conditions. Grateful and hungry, Mike accepts the offer from the handsome, wealthy young man. Initially, the game seems simple, but as the hours pass, their interaction leads to deeper questions and life-altering consequences. Daniel, uncertain about his career and engaged, finds himself drawn to Mike, a macho Cajun father and husband. The dynamic shifts dramatically as Daniel requests a sexual favor, evolving into a dominant figure intent on humiliating Mike. What compels Daniel to transform from a simple request to a complete power shift? What is it about the captivating young man, just two years older than Daniel's own son, that leads this proud straight man to submit? As their arrangement twists, both will uncover profound truths about themselves and their desires.
