Introduction

Under the pseudonym Sebastian, Max meets men via an escort platform. The book that emerges from his double life sees him offered a deal by a publisher. However, as Max delves deeper into his alter ego, the line between his true self and Sebastian blurs. And while his newfound experiences result in further creativity, Max must decide where his real self ends and Sebastian begins.
