The Man Club. It’s the electric place where gay gents pick up one-night stands, hot male dancers work for big tips, and fresh bachelorettes have their steamy, pre-marital parties. Running The Man Club is a crazy job for middle-aged Gyles Beare. Between hiring and firing dancers, keeping wait staff in line, and paying the bills, Gyles tries to have a love life, but it isn’t easy. Not at all. Enter Car Tate. Car lives with Gyles, and has been a solid tenant for the last few months. Handsome. Charming. A good head on his shoulders. Car sometimes works at the club to help Gyles out. He always has Gyles’s back. Lately, though, Car’s been over-the-top nice to Gyles. The sweet and romantic things Car’s been doing for Gyes are oddly pleasant. What’s going on? Is Car in love with Gyles? Is it time for Gyles to confront his hidden feelings and land the man of his dreams?

The Man Club

Tuck continues to dance, slowly thrusting his hips at the crowd. They love it. They go wild. And Tuck grins from ear to ear, continuing his seduction of them. It’s a great time at The Man Club. The best. I won’t have it any other way.


Two days later, I review the security footage from the sixteen-channel, two-terabit DVR. I believe a new hire by the name of Eric Carloto is stealing money from the registers when he’s bartending. The club has been short for the last two weeks, night after night; the exact amount of time that Eric has been working for me.
