To his horror, Paulo Santiago wakes to the sight of a ten-foot alligator stuck inside his kitchen. Paulo goes online and hires the services of Manijo Dulce, a sexy Ecuadorian god who enjoys handling alligators ... and men.

Work colleague Oliver Mead becomes Paulo's free psychologist about men, life in Barefoot Beach, canal amphibians, and dating a stranger called The Gator Guy. But does Oliver cross a line when he tells Paulo not to mix business with pleasure?

A few days later, Manijo turns up at Paulo's place, agreeing to rid Paulo of the other alligators who live in the canal behind Paulo's bungalow. Clothes are removed, libidos inflamed, and gators and hearts are captured.
