The place is New York City. The time is the decade before the plague of AIDS. Thousands of gay men were living a free-wheeling lifestyle of club hopping, "score" hunting, sex without fear, and upward mobility. To none did The Big Apple offer greater rewards than to those young men who had the envied "male model" look. Author James Melson belonged to this exclusive clique. He was a model at 19, and by 25 he was a Wall Street banker.

For 200 pages, you are brought back to the era that may be just a memory for older readers, and for younger readers a time you never knew - when to be a "Golden Boy" was to be a prince, and sex was only fun and games.
