When married gay man Brian Abascal leaves the almost-nonexistent kink scene in Boston for the vibrant leather scene in San Francisco, he finds himself presented with a sumptuous buffet of new experiences. But what if you don’t know what your kink *is* yet? Exploring the Bear dance parties of SOMA and the Dungeons of the Castro, Brian discovers that his new leather community comes with BDSM mentorship opportunities that will allow him to learn more about himself and what turns him on. Unfortunately, now it’s not just about what he wants - he’s discovered what he needs.
