On a whim, Alex signs up to volunteer with an outreach program at a local youth shelter. He envisions a little kid he'll pal around with. What he doesn't expect is Jamie Owens, an 18 year old boy with a bad attitude who's only two years younger than Alex himself.
Jamie's hot. Very hot, and nervy, and precocious, and damn sexy, to boot.
Alex sees himself as a mentor to Jamie, someone to look up to, someone to prove being a gay man doesn't mean casual sex in crowded clubs. He tries to keep his distance, both physically and emotionally, but Jamie becomes a part of Alex's life in a way neither expects.
