About the Project

Casanova is the story of Bradley Jenner, a twenty-two year acting student living in New York with his best friend Rachel. The one secret that no one knows except a select few is that Bradley moonlights as a male escort by night. When Bradley is hand picked by a client they only know as “Superstar”, he is hesitant to meet him, but “Superstar” gave him a offer he couldn’t refuse, but when he discovers that “Superstar” is actually Nicholas Martin, the Australian heart throb actor, things change. Martin also happens to be a closeted gay man with a passion for BDSM. When Martin draws the younger man into his private orbit and initiates him into his sexual world, the younger man can tell that kinky sex has shielded Martin from having a real emotional connection with another man. But he is head over heels in love with the older, powerful, gorgeous man who has selected him for the pleasures of submission. Ultimately, Brad must decide to experiment with the power differential between them, and see if he can break through the armor that Smith and his layers of Hollywood handlers have imprisoned him in. Will he be able to open Smith up to real intimacy, or will he cause Smith to end the relationship and cut himself off yet again?
