What do you do when you're a popular porn star and the love of your life is deeply religious and totally closeted? Why, you keep your true identity from him, create an alternate reality, and hope he doesn't find out, of course. Because, if he ever does, that would be the deal breaker. That was Jordan Hearst's reasoning, anyway. However, despite Jordan's best efforts at keeping his charade a secret, Spenser Hudson does find out. Having a liar and a porn star as a boyfriend is a deal breaker as far as the devastated Spenser is concerned. Fearing the loss of both his job and his family, Spenser abruptly disappears from Jordan's life, castigating himself for ever letting his carnal desires override his faith, thus allowing him to fall in love with the handsome, charming Jordan. With all attempts at reconciliation rebuffed, Jordan tries to move on, but the love he feels for Spenser won't go away, making it impossible for him to return to his job of having meaningless sex in front of the cameras. Spenser is given a different perspective on his and Jordan's situation from an unlikely source. Can the love he still feels for Jordan be the key to rekindling what they once shared? Is it enough to make Spenser see there's more than one way to look at the deal life has given him? Can a new deal to be struck?

The Deal Breaker

Spenser had a low paying job as a teacher at the time they’d first been making their plans for a life together. Without a degree and with no skills other than what Jordan could do with his cock and body, they couldn’t afford the life he and Spenser envisioned without Jordan’s high salary. So he felt he needed to keep his job at Real Romance.


In order to keep what he really did for a living away from Spenser, Jordan had created his phony world: he’d graduated from college with a degree in business, and he was an executive at a successful investment firm.


Jordan realized now that had been a mistake. He should’ve quit working for Real Romance when he’d first met Spenser. He probably would’ve kept it a secret he’d ever done porn, lest he spook his new boyfriend. But he could have admitted the truth he was a college dropout with no job skills. He should have trusted Spenser not to judge him. Now it was too late. He was trapped in a fantasy world of his own making.
