CGiii Comment

Would a woman really humiliate herself to this extent...for a young, bisexual hustler?

That's the question you have to ask yourself - if you believe it is possible...then, this is a gentle investigation into the workings of such an ill-fated relationship.

If not, then, this is a complete waste of time.

The(ir) Blurb...

Fashion executive Dominique's obsession for Quentin, a young bisexual hustler, fills her desire for physical love but leaves her taxed emotionally. Twists and turns in the relationship, along with the man's violent and abusive nature, force Dominique to reconcile the conflicts created by her passion. In this quest, Dominique is aided [and sometimes hindered] by friends, clients, and Quentin's former and current acquaintances.
