Apple Polisher (Rear Entrance Video Book 1)

This straight-A student has a dirty little secret.

Christian Blake dreams of being a kindergarten teacher, but making the grade means maintaining a squeaky clean image: no drinking, no drugs, no swearing, no sex. And definitely no falling for his new roommate€"tattooed bad-boy Max, who may or may not be a drug dealer.

Most of all, it means no working at a porn store. But Christian€s aunt has cancer, and her beloved Rear Entrance Video will go bankrupt if Christian doesn€t take over managerial duties. Soon enough, Christian finds himself juggling sticky twenty-five cent peep show booths, a blackmailing employee, and a demanding professor who likes to make an example of him.

And then there€s Max, who doesn€t know anything about the store, but hates Christian€s preppy sweater vests and the closet Christian forces him into when they€re together. Max just wants Christian to be himself€"even though Max is keeping secrets of his own. Christian struggles to find the impossible balance between his real life and the ideal one he thinks a teacher needs to live . . . all while trying to keep his aunt€s dream alive without losing his own.
