He runs into a childhood friend who pulls him back into the world of the rich and powerful, giving Rudy a second chance at the life he should have had. That is, if Rudy can keep his darkest secrets hidden from the world -- first, that he is only a lowly destitute laborer who has sold his body in the past to put food in his belly and, even more devastating if it is revealed, he prefers men in his bed.Upon Rudy’s debut back into the shining world of well-off Londoners, he learns the man whom he has been having a year-long affair with is none other than the affianced husband to his friend’s cousin. If this secret gets out, Rudy will be ruined for sure. Can the two men stay away from each other? Or will their passion and love destroy them both?
