Irrational anger bubbled up, spilling out of his mouth before he could hold the words back. Then Dev pressed a kiss to Ewan’s lips, which lingered long enough to make Shawn uncomfortable. Dev turned to look at him and they exchanged a soft smile. Ewan had his arm around Dev, and as Shawn watched, he turned his ginger head and murmured something in Dev’s ear. He lived next door, but he might as well have moved in for the amount of time he spent there with Dev. Ewan wasn’t technically one of Shawn’s housemates.
Shawn turned his attention to the other sickeningly happy couple in the room. The idea of being back on Tinder wasn’t as appealing as it should be. Maybe it was just because Shawn was single again and would have to get back to hooking up if he wanted any action. It was none of his business, but the idea that Jude might be planning some hook-up with some random guy lodged in his consciousness like a stone in a shoe. That twist of discomfort flared in his gut again. Shawn wondered what he was doing-probably hooking up on Grindr or something. Jude, one of the new guys who’d moved in last month, sat in a corner of one of the sofas doing something on his phone, his dark curly head bending low and the glow of the screen lighting up his angular features. Sunk in a black hole of despondency, he gazed surreptitiously around the room at his housemates instead.

But Jude isn’t looking to get involved with someone so deep in the closet.
Jude agrees, and things get complicated-and kinky-fast. Keen to explore his bicurious side, Shawn suggests they do a show together. It makes Shawn want things that scare him, yet his fascination forces him to confront his attraction. When Shawn discovers Jude works as a cam boy, he can’t resist the urge to watch one of his shows. Out and proud, he’s everything Shawn’s been running from since he hit puberty. Jude is a student living in the same shared house. His girlfriend dumped him, his friends have moved on, and he’s still in Plymouth-going nowhere. Recently graduated, he’s stuck in a dead-end job that barely pays the bills. Watching Jude’s cam show stirs desires Shawn’s always denied…
