"I've given up believing that any of my dreams will ever come true..." Thirty years of marriage is a lot of time to have lived for most men, but Ralph feels like he hasn't even started living yet. As a deeply closeted gay man, all he has are memories of lost opportunities and fantasies of what it would be like to have a male lover. The internet is his saving grace... and his chance at a second, more fulfilled gay life. He participates in chat rooms, and eventually finds a kindred spirit in Jim Spalding, who lives a short walk away. When the two men - both married, both closeted - meet, sparks fly. They kiss, they make love, they turn their fantasies into breathless realities. But the more they see each other and the deeper they fall in love, the harder it is for them to tolerate their married lives. When Jim's wife dies, the two men suddenly find themselves with more opportunities to be together. And Ralph finds himself in a position where he has to make a courageous choice: to stay loyal to his wife, or to make his fantasies into permanent realities and be with Jim.
