BUFFED, BEREAVED...AND BROKE
Thanks to his wealthy, doting lover, Jack Thompson's biggest daily challenges are the Stairmaster "RM" and deciding whether to read this week's issue of People before or after Entertainment Weekly. That changes with his smitten benefactor's sudden demise -- and a decade-old will that naturally doesn't include Jack. Unceremoniously tossed out of their shared home with little more than his rollerblades, Jack wonders who will support him in the style to which he's become accustomed. He certainly can't... or can he?
To Jack's dismay, his half-hearted stints as a terminally bored office temp and disastrously clumsy waiter barely cover the minimum payments on his maxed out credit cards, let alone sprees at Neiman Marcus and Sunday brunches with the boys. What's a homeless and unemployed shopaholic to do? Perhaps nothing more than what comes naturally. After all, with his perfect pecs and sculpted abs, he's one of the most sought-after guys in town...
Though he stumbles into his newfound career running Harden Up, a male escort service, purely by accident, it doesn't take long for Jack to reap the financial rewards of all those workouts. Soon business is booming, especially after he teams up with dark and decadent fellow hustler Ray, who shares his resourceful spirit -- among other things. Now they're making more money than they ever imagined -- and falling for each other in the process. With everything going his way at last, Jack can't help wondering...can a pair of entrepreneurialescorts really live happily ever after in suburban Denver?
Written with biting wit and sharp-but-loving commentary on the myriad gay subcultures, CAN'T BUY ME LOVE is entertainment of the highest order -- warm, wise, and ultimately triumphant.
