At twenty-five, Travis Sheppard knows all about taking care of himself. He's been on his own since the age of seventeen, and he learned long ago how to use his assets and natural-born talent to get what he needs...and wants. Travis is a hustler, a male escort, and he caters to men of means who like to shower him with gifts and cash in exchange for his affection—sometimes for his mere presence.

When Travis accepts an overnight gig with a new client, he's surprised by the fact the customer has pre-paid. When Travis arrives at the gentleman's surprisingly modest home, he learns that his client is an accomplished, best-selling author. Darren, otherwise known as DJ Torrent, makes Travis a proposal. He wants Travis to accompany him to a gay literature conference. The catch is that for their five days together, Travis is to be more to Darren than just his escort. Darren wants Travis to pose as his husband.
