Timeo Nada, editor for Penmen Books, has run into a little prick these days. His sexy and scientific houseman, Gage Need, is missing again. Weirdly, he can never find Gage on some days. Gage keeps talking about physics, molecular what-nots, and time-travel being possible. Unfortunately, Timeo is only drawn to his help's body, and how he's attracted to the man: the way Gage swims in the pool, sunbathes, and sleeps. Timeo cannot get the houseman out of his head and heart, but that doesn't matter now that Gage is missing.
Soon Gage is found. Then rare and unique antiques strangely begin to pile up in the lakeside house, and a phantom blue mist covers the floor outside Gage's bedroom door. Timeo's feelings for Gage start to grow, and he becomes more interested in Gage, questioning the man's activities as a physicist.
When Gage's quasi-boyfriend Chad turns up missing and Gage becomes the number one suspect regarding his disappearance, Timeo attempts to unravel the mystery and his high-strung emotions for Gage. He begins to wonder if Gage is really time-traveling, using the house as a portal? Is the phantom blue mist on the floor from outer space? And has Timeo fallen too hard and fast for Gage to admit he's totally in love with the guy?
