Brian hasn’t seen his lover, Paul, for six months. Paul’s been out of town on business and due to his college classes, Brian was forced to stay home. Brian’s having trouble dealing with the separation and has been pushing his limits with Jim for the last couple of months. He’s been tense, unhappy and ready to climb the walls as he waits for his Daddy to come home again. The stress is making him cranky, unruly and he’s having trouble sleeping. He’s not the only one in the household who is feeling unsettled. Even though Scott has been home more, he’s still feeling like a third wheel when his man, Jim, has to play disciplinarian to Brian for the missing Paul.

Part of Brian’s problem has been his inability to tell Paul about his need to explore other aspects of a BDSM lifestyle. He’s afraid his desires will drive the men he loves away, instead of taking the chance on confessing his curiosity. Things get better for Brian once Paul gets home but the other brat of the household, Scott is still acting out. While out on the road, Scott does the unexpected; he brings home a lonely gay young man, Joshua. Then if the household wasn’t in enough of an uproar, Paul’s old Dom friend, Freddie, comes to stay.

A Man, A Jersey and a Tight end picks up where Goldilocks and His Three Bears left off. This fun, sexual romp revolves around the multi-partnered relationship of our two Doms and their two subs living in the same house and loving each other. There’s lots of sex going on in this home, but it’s never anything other than relaxing and loving. Even when it becomes kinky and a little heavy as Paul and Brian are experimenting or when Scott is being disciplined by Jim, you never doubt the love and commitment of either couple.

Adding Freddie to the household in the second half changes things, especially when he takes over caring for the confused and often unruly Joshua, who is testing the boundaries set for him. These two strangers have a great deal to learn about each other as they change their relationship from that of mentor/student to friends and finally, lovers.

Put the three brats together and watch out for the sparks and trouble. Paul, Jim and Freddie have their hands full keeping control of their men, but it’s a job they truly love.
