Jagger's Revolution Book

Jagger is an aristocratic beach thug in his early thirties who rules by his scrupulous idea of how dating and relationships should be. He's strikingly attractive, strong and sexy, but also a menace, with an aggressive disapproval for weakness and bad etiquette. His rough and interesting dating past prompts an editor to spear him into incorporating and transcribing his findings into a series of sex columns for a popular magazine. The author sets up a highly perceptive dark alter ego, Jagger, to deliver a not particularly warm interpretation of relationships. His bold column becomes well liked escalating him into an iconoclastic figure. He comes into contact with one poor association after another, which only gives him another problematic issue to glob onto his neurosis and struggle with. We visit his past with his escort girlfriend, drug dealing boyfriend, and his romp in a Vegas hotel with his sister's boyfriend, not to mention Caden the Malibu cobra surfer who becomes intoxicated by his presence and loses it in the process. He introduces us to the summer threesome and equates dating with going to battle and enlightens his posse with the truth. The land of the beautiful consumes his circle in the form of Slade, Troy and Russell, his engaging friends who ad depth to his plight and compliment his forceful nature by tempering his inflexible fight on mankind to gain insight into their intolerable behavior. The narrative is sexually explicit throughout, but affecting in places when you're motioned to deliberate. He travels a brutal and uneven road, being placed down from a toughened pre-existence that catches up with him. Instead of crawling into a corner he unleashes hell publicly working out his frustrations and recognizing it could be he who is the source of the dissatisfaction he overtly creates. He runs into exhaustion with going on yet another sexual or friendly excursion when he knows the one for him is the one he can't say more than two words to. If there is any light to all his darkness it's the winning love story, the central theme that runs throughout his disappointments in matters of the heart. He experiences the kind of crush and love one has as a teenager over Garth, the dreamboat lifeguard from Australia, with the boyish distinction and the killer smile, who he keeps running into in passing. He feels an immediate silent connection with him and longs to get close.
