Jayden refuses to stay in the closet anymore, and now that he's arrived at a large private university in California, he doesn't have to. But coming out as gay to his cocky alpha roommate isn't all that easy. Fortunately, his college roommate is more accepting than Jayden could hope. In fact, Brodie makes it his mission in life to give Jayden the tools he needs to explore his homosexuality. First, Jayden needs to start working out with Brodie at the gym. And then, once Jayden gets his body tightened up, there's new clothes, new friends, and – new rules. Rules about showering at the gym. Rules about how Jayden grooms himself. And even rules about how Jayden can please himself, and when.
Jayden doesn't really mind the rules. He even doesn't mind the punishments that come from breaking them. In fact, he starts to learn more than how to work out. He learns that he likes being submissive to alpha males, from the arrogant quarterback he tutors to the stranger he meets in the steam room, and even the nameless ROTC cadet whose lunch he buys. Jayden is built to submit, and while he struggles with the shame and fear of that discovery, he struggles more with the feelings he's developing for Brodie.
In fact, these feelings may prove his undoing, because he's not sure what the muscled, tattooed jock feels for him. Maybe he's just having fun. Or maybe it's something deeper, and even weirder, than it seems at first. But Jayden better figure it out, before the fun gets out of hand, and before he runs afoul of Brodie's rules. If he doesn't finish his training before it's too late, he might lose his self-respect, and more importantly, the arrogant, strict roommate he's quickly growing to love.
