He wants to be part of it. After writing and starring in his homeshot, gay coming-of-age soap, »Dallasty!«, he sets his sights on Hollywood. So he's off, accompanied by an ever-changing cast of quirky extended family members, on an extremely bumpy journey from rural Wisconsin to a New York escort agency for Broadway chorus boys, to a Hollywood sitcom set. And when Jayson actually does get his big Hollywood break, his connection to his mother deteriorates further. Somewhere out there his destiny awaits - along with the discovery of first love, some unusual coincidences, a kidnapping mystery and the sobering truth that being America's sweetheart can leave a sour aftertaste.
