A male escort takes on an inexperienced client and breaks the first rule of rent boys: don’t get attached.
After updating his Rent Boy blog profile, well-endowed porn star Ty receives a text from a sexually inexperienced client. Andy, the client, asks Ty to provide him with the necessary know-how so should he ever get a date with the guy he’s attracted to, he’ll be fully prepared. Little does Ty know that this hookup will lead to a friendship that will subsequently change his life.
This story has been previously published as The Perfect Size for You by Torquere Press in the Take It Like a Man anthology. This second edition has been expanded and reedited.
The door opened, and a skinny geek with specs faced me. Thinking I had the wrong house, and worried that the boy’s father had made the appointment, I floundered. Now, that will be awkward.How’s he planning to get his kid out of the house?
“Excuse me. I’m looking for Andy. Is he here?”
The boy flushed bright red and pushed up his black-framed glasses.
“That’s me, I’m Andy Parker. You have the right address.”
You’ve got to be kidding me. “Okay, son! How old are you?” He didn’t look a day over fifteen.
His eyes widened, but his gaze didn’t leave mine. He bristled a little, rising to his full height. “I’m eighteen. Nineteen in three months. I can show you my ID, if you like.” He looked beyond my shoulder, then ushered me hastily inside.
I followed him to the kitchen. “I’m Tyrone, by the way.” He hadn’t even asked my name. I could have been any weirdo coming into his home. I guessed he recognized me from my online photos or my porn videos. Whatever. It looked like he was expecting me anyway.

My Thoughts:
I do
love a story where the characters surprise me and not live up to the stereotype
they initially appear to be.
Both
the blurb and the start of Finding Love had me convinced I was
dealing with a cocky porn star who knows it all and a shy, inexperienced and
maybe even submissive student. And both Ty and Andy live up to their stereotype
nicely…or do they? Is Ty really as sure of himself and what he wants as he thinks
he is? And could Andy possibly have quite a bit of backbone behind his coyness?
I had
so much fun with this story. Getting to know Ty and Andy was as exciting as
Andy’s enticing introduction to the world of intimacy and sex was. This story
is told from Ty’s perspective which, in this case, is exactly right. Watching
Ty as he slowly has to admit to himself that Andy is becoming more than a
client and, later, more than ‘just’ a friend was as fascinating as getting to
know the real Andy was.
This is
a short story and yet it is not a case of insta-love. We follow Ty and Andy’s
journey from the first time they make what is purely a commercial arrangement
to the point where they can no longer pretend to be anything else than
boyfriends. And their journey is intriguing and beautiful.
Thank
you Lily for yet another well written story and captivating read. I thoroughly
enjoyed myself.
Many thanks for reading and reviewing. Much appreciated. Glad you like my boys ;)
