On the day singer Jackson Poole signs his first record contract, he learns that part of the deal is turning over his life to his managers. For his handlers and his record company, keeping Jackson’s gay identity a secret becomes a full-on obsession, particularly since their new star is anything but discreet. They try dressing him differently, teaching him how to speak butch, and even fixing him up with a soap opera vixen. But how is a rock star supposed to enjoy his newfound success if he can’t bed the groupies?

Stewart Lewis is a native of Boston now living in Los Angeles. He is a graduate of the University of Colorado’s theater program and earned a master’s degree in writing at the University of Southern California.

About the Author:

Stewart Lewis is a native of Boston now living in Los Angeles. He is a graduate of the University of Colorado's theater program and earned a master's degree in writing at the University of Southern California.

From Publishers Weekly:

Rising pop singer Jackson Poole signs with Virgin Records in Lewis's name-dropping debut, but the 33-year-old's meteoric rise in the glamorous but dog-eat-dog music business will come at a price. Jackson is gay, a quirk that just won't fly with the fans, according to his label and handlers. So Jackson's world tour (and path to Grammy nomination) is marred with schemes to keep up hetero appearances. His handler gets him photographed with a closeted lesbian soap opera actress, and exults when Jackson also shows up in the tabloids with the teenaged diva he's touring with, but Jackson's career is nearly ruined by an innocent pic of him kissing his brother good-bye. To complicate things, Jackson is stalked by a deranged ex-lover-turned-paparazzi. Good thing he believes it's all about the music. When he does decide to break the charade, the fallout (or lack thereof) is anti-climatic.
