Summary: Paul Rosenberg never stayed up for New Year’s Eve anymore, so it was the morning of January 1, 2000 when he sat down with a cup of coffee and told himself it was time to start living again. He’d lived in this house for three years now, in Los Angeles for just over seven. Making new friends, building a new business, taking his history of success in New York and turning it into even bigger success here. Coming home alone every night of every week of every month of every year, because no matter how many attractive men he met in the West, none compared to Mark, the man he’d loved and lost before. Then he ran into a man who looked so much like Mark that Paul almost couldn’t believe it. Jan de Witt, an aspiring jeweler: well-educated, well-mannered, and much too young. Once he got over the shock, Paul couldn’t stop thinking about how he could help de Witt launch his career. He really tried not to think about anything else. Once he agreed to Paul’s proposition, Jan put his whole heart and soul, and a lot of work, into launching the business. And he didn’t care about the age difference. He hoped the business partnership would lead to more. Maybe to everything.
