ACQUIRED

Business traveler Dale Buckner barely thought twice about purchasing a piece of illegal biotech in a Bangkok back alley - not when the seller promised it could re-shape his body into an exact duplicate of anyone he has only the most casual of contact with.

Thoughts of borrowing a more attractive man's body for some anonymous sex or even briefly living the life of a celebrity are much on his mind, but Dale soon discovers that there's something else riding shotgun in his head. The "gadget" has a mind of its own. Every time Dale emerges from the cocoon, he's a little deeper down the rabbit hole and plunged into a world of lust, desire, and... femininity.

As Dale acquires more and more female templates, his thoughts and encounters become more and more twisted - until the true nature of his acquisition reveals itself to him. Equal parts cyberpunk and delicious smut, ACQUIRED imagines the day-after-tomorrow's technology in service of the familiar biological imperative.
