When his stodgy boyfriend Ieaves town, Rusty has a chance encounter with a handsome though seedy drifter, Denny (Dale Dymkoski, TV's Law and Order: SVU). Blinded by Denny's good looks, vuInerability
and hustler charm, Rusty begins an intense, steamy relationship ruIed by Iong-dormant passions However, as Denny's controI over Rusty strengthens, it soon becomes clear that Rusty - now on a seductive ride of sex and drugs - must decide what it is he truIy wants.
Lucky Bastard is an edgy, sensual and saIacious exploration of youthful indiscretion, sexuaI induIgence and the high stakes of attraction - a story that rings true to anyone who's ever faIlen for the
wrong guy for all the right reasons. |
