Ryan is an ordinary man living in the suburbs and working in middle management. He thought he knew himself well, until a woman he was just coming to know suggested there was a side to him he'd misinterpreted. This erotic novel traces the changes in him as he discovers his true sexual nature, and the women who influence him: the submissive with an agenda, the older woman, the woman who's own awakening unleashes her inner cruelty, and the woman who changes his life when she dies in his arms.
