Austin has fallen in love with porn legend Nicholas Grandiforte, who is trying to ease himself, gradually and gracefully, out of the sex industry. Austin is willing to do anything for Nick, including become a sex performer himself. But Nick resists carrying their relationship to a level of greater commitment, citing the disparity in their ages and his own sordid past. Operating, however, on the principle that “faint heart ne'er won hot number,” Austin persists, and begins to wear down his lover's resistance.
