Synopsis

Ever since Dryden Morris III was young, his mother has told him about the balance of the world. While she weaves jewelry to sell at the marketplace, Dryden learns how every perfect gem begs to be damaged while every bad situation will be corrected by the universe. This is why symmetry is fearful --because when something is perfect, it only sets itself up to be destroyed.
Dryden doesn't believe his mother's stories until his father dies and they are forced to survive on their own. One night, Dryden ventures into the woods that surround their house. There he meets Otto, a hunter who protects him from a deranged fox and begins to sweep Dryden off his feet. But Otto is not quite who he says he is. The morning after, Dryden realizes Otto has trapped him unless he can solve three riddles in three days. 
With the help of his mother's stories, and the same fox that once threatened him, Dryden must now beat the monster in the woods if he wants to restore perfect balance to the universe once again.

    My life was just fine until he came down from his ivory tower. 
     
     
     
    Sure, I lived my days hiding deep in the closet, but I got to see all the beautiful guys in Neon Nights whenever I delivered fresh produce from my father's store. But that was the best we could do. 
     
     
     
    Until a man with wolfish eyes and a sinful smirk came to our little home and demanded that my father settle an old debt. He was going to ruin what little happiness we built for ourselves in Hudson Burrow. 
     
     
     
    The only thing I could do was offer my work in exchange for my father's mounting debts. I would go with Dominic Blackthorn to his secluded mansion, and I would work off the debt no matter how long it took. But real life is never so simple. 
     
     
     
    Dominic is a cruel and emotionless man with nothing but disdain for those around him. And the longer I am there, the clearer it becomes: Dominic's appetites extend beyond amassing his wealth. He wants the one thing he can never have. He wants me. 
     
     
     
    How long can I live with this heartless man before I start seeing something good in him? How long before he lets himself act on this impulse? I want to resist him, even if I see disarming warmth in his handsome smile. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    One rainy day, Chris takes a spur of the moment trip to the city zoo, because even walking around in the rain looking at damp animals is better than going back to the office.

This impulsive trip to the zoo was a good idea, but Chris still has to go back to work tomorrow.

    Hansel is an aspiring photographer with a greater passion for the half-naked models he works with than for his art. Gretel is a Drag Superstar -- or will be, she's convinced, the moment she's discovered by ... anybody. One night, out in the tony gay-borhood The Woods, they stumble upon The Sugar Shack, a second-story nightclub they're both delighted to discover, Gretel for the nightly drag shows of which she'd thrill to be a part, Hansel for the vast free buffet.
    
    
    They meet the club's owner, local drag legend Sugar Rush, who offers Gretel a spot on stage vacated by a last-minute no-show. When she wows the crowd, Sugar offers Gretel a trial spot on the Sugar Shack's lineup, and invites Hansel to drop in anytime, and to bring his appetite with him.
    
    
    Gretel is a smash, and jumps at the eventual offer of a permanent gig. Hansel's a hit, too, at Sugar's private table upstairs in The Cage, where he lets Sugar flirt with him while he eats everything he can reach. He enjoys the attention almost as much as the free food, but he's about as gay as they get, and can't see himself falling for a dude who looks and smells like a chick, even if she is gorgeous. She's also an inveterate chubby chaser, Gretel points out to him one day, and her apparent mission to fatten Hansel up seems to be proceeding apace.
    
    
    Spending time with Sugar, Hansel's horizons expand along with his hips, but will he ever see her as more than just his "Sugar Daddy?"
