This is the story of Sam, a young man who has found that he likes kink and mild BDSM in his sex life, and has a hard time reconciling what he wants with how he thinks a good person should behave. He meets Mitch, a truck driver with a lot more experience and enough of a caring nature to help Sam explore his boundaries while encouraging him to feel good about himself and his needs. In many ways I loved this book, loved the two characters, and appreciated the added complexity of a MC who wants kink and three-ways while just learning how to deal with it all. I took off a star, though, for somewhat unsafe sexual practices. Mitch tells Sam he will keep him safe, but he encourages him to have unprotected oral sex (with swallowing), once with a complete stranger although Sam tops, and uses his semen as lube for Sam once, and maybe Mitch knows he and their friend Randy are clean, but the context of the story makes it unlikely. So when he says Sam is safe with him, there was this little nagging voice in my head that said "You hope." It took just a little of the shine off their relationship for me.
