Before Lovers

Have you ever seen someone and had the strangest feeling you've met before? When Paul notices a handsome man watching him on the bus, he's a little annoyed. When it happens again the following evening, he begins to worry. On the third day, the mystery man, Calvin Dickson, taps Paul on the shoulder and introduces himself. Paul can't help but be wary. Calvin gives Paul his card and suggests they meet for a drink. When Paul reads the card and notices Calvin is a chartered accountant, he decides the man can't be too crazy and decides to accept the offered drink. There's an immediate connection between the two men, but there's more than that. Strange things happen to Paul whenever he becomes intimate with Calvin, which leads Paul to consult a psychic. What he discovers will change the way he thinks about life -- and Calvin -- forever more.
