Lonny found herself between a rock and a hard spot. She had to choose between the lesser of two evils. She had to have the money or she'd be kicked out of her house and she'd be homeless... on the streets. So, reluctantly, she agreed to let her disgusting neighbor have her body. She didn't want to be a hooker, so she said she'd pay him back. But then, as things progressed, he became less disgusting until, impossibly, she fell in love with him.
