Sean (Sparkle) Jones hasn’t had a free day in a while and when his friend invited him out he jumps at it. He doesn’t expect his friend to bring him to an exclusive high class bathhouse that caters to the customer’s needs and wants. But his friend manages to talk him into giving it a try. It doesn’t hurt that he comes across a handsome older stranger.

Simon Burns is a successful business man during the day and a successful owner of an exclusive bathhouse at night. When he catches sight of Sparkle he can’t help but be drawn to the dark skin long haired sassy diva. Simon wants him but Sparkles isn’t looking for a one night stand. Simon won’t give up though. He wants Sparkle and he intends to make Sparkle his.

I really like story lines like this where the characters enter into agreement wanting one thing but getting more than they bargained for the longer the relationship goes on. Sparkle and Simon were intriguing characters in their own way and somewhat similar. They had great chemistry until one or the other starts mucking it up because of their own insecurities or some sort of misunderstanding.

I liked that the author took the time to write in his characters having safe sex and touching base on HIV/AIDs.
