Karl Thorne’s life is comfortably dull. Secretly in love with his straight boss, he prefers working as Dick Chamberlain’s personal assistant, despite his otherwise impressive educational background. What he doesn’t expect is his life being turned upside down by Dick’s brother, Gordon, who walks one day into the air conditioned office, and causes the temperature in the room to rise above one hundred degrees Fahrenheit. Karl realizes that he is the one getting hot under the collar, and even his unrequited, yet enduring love for his boss is wavering under the man’s sexy scrutiny.
Much to his surprise, Dick decides to lend Karl and his PA skills to his brother for one month. Devastated by his boss’s decision to send him away with no regrets whatsoever, Karl sees Gordon as just another straight guy meant to give him wet dreams and nothing more. What he doesn’t expect is for Gordon to be so direct in telling Karl to his face about what he thinks of the assistant’s sexual orientation and secret love for his boss.
Bewildered, Karl tries to reason with Gordon, but he finds himself caught in a web of sensuality, family secrets, and games in which he feels as nothing more but a pawn. Is Gordon’s interest in him genuine? What will happen if he gives his heart away? And most of all, should he forget about the game rule that says that whoever walks away first, wins?
