Wyatt Findley is an up-and-coming artist, attending a prestigious art institute in St. Louis. His mentor, Lukas Callahan, has snagged a sweet house-sitting job for him in a gorgeous home in a well-to-do part of town. Wyatt can't help but notice two men who live just across the street. They make an odd couple, since there must be a good twenty years difference between them. And yet there is something about the younger man that calls to Wyatt. Shylor Lind has been living with Randy Grant for fifteen years, ever since Grant hired Shy's mother as his live-in housekeeper. But five years ago, their relationship changed when Shy's mother sold him to Grant and took the money and ran. Since then, Randy has been training Shy to be his submissive, dominating him in every way. There is nothing Shy can do about the situation, and he has nowhere to go, no one to turn to. And then Wyatt enters his life... and nothing will ever be the same, as Wyatt engages in a battle for Shy's very soul.
