William "Wills" Matheson is a computer whiz, hired by Huntingdon right out of college. He's groomed for a position in the Washington Bureau of Intelligence and Security, a sister organization to Huntingdon. Eventually, he's promoted to senior special agent in the department of Interior Affairs, under the notorious Mark Vincent. Instructed by Trevor Wallace -- The Boss, and yes, that's in caps, of the WBIS -- to follow Vincent after his apartment is destroyed, the younger agent discovers why the man is considered the best when Vincent easily spots him. Rather than knocking him down as expected, Vincent orders Wills to accompany him to his friend's bedside in GW Hospital. There, Wills meets the rent boy known as Sweetcheeks and is instantly struck by the handsome redhead. Wills has never had a male lover before, but he's more than willing to give it a try. Gradually he begins to wonder if there could be a future for them together. Things look positive for them when Sweetcheeks confesses his own love, but Wills is a WBIS agent, and Sweetcheeks is a rent boy. Will their jobs come between them before they can explore their newfound love?

“That young manyou’re kissing in this photo is a whore!”


“I would think that’s more my worry than the WBIS’s.” Than his. “And I still don’t see where you’re taking this.”


He was out of his chair so quickly it went spinning back to hit the wall behind him. “The WBIS frowns on its employees indulging in such activities.”


I took out my wallet and withdrew a slip of paper, which I handed to him.


“What’s this?” he demanded irritably.


“This is a list of the ladies who are available for a…mmm… how should I put this? A less than long-term relationship? It was supplied to me by Human Resources.”


“Women are perfectly acceptable! Men are not!”
