Milo Slowiak is perfectly happy to sleep with a different guy, most nights. Nelson Agnew — a frequent buddy in Milo's bed — has been fine with that, too, until Christmas Day, when he changes the rules. Now Nelson wants a relationship, and Milo has until New Year's Day to make his decision.
At first, Milo is upset and decides he doesn't need Nelson. After all, he has all those names in his little black book to choose from. Yet sex with others doesn't erase the lingering feeling that Milo could be missing out on something wonderful, whether or not he's ready for it or can trust his feelings on the matter.
After a heated confrontation, Milo realizes two things: he wants Nelson for more than a notch on his bed post, and Nelson has been in love with him from the beginning. Can Milo change for the better?
