Society is crumbling. Men are after fancy cars, big houses, and even bigger bank accounts while the women are after the men chasing these things. I have grown to hate being stuck in something that seems impossible of leaving. The only thing keeping me here are my parents. They mean the world to me, and I could never leave them. When that part of my life was taken from me, I did the only thing that I knew to do - remove myself as a part of this society and escape to seclusion.

If you ask most men, they’ll tell you my name is Jason. If you ask most women, they’ll tell you my name is Maximum, ‘cause I’m maximum in bed. Yeah. I like a little action in the sheets, but it doesn’t change the fact that I have responsibilities. I’m a single dad. My little girl’s sweet mother didn’t live to see her grow up, so now it’s all on me to do by right by our daughter. Maybe because of that I’ve never let myself get too close to any woman. But I just moved into this new town, and my neighbor, Lucy, she calls to me in a way no one has since my wife was alive.
