Diego’s Secret
Diego Castillo
Eight years ago, at the age of seventeen, Diego Castillo came to the United States from Mexico. Working long hours in the family landscaping business, he now shares a tiny apartment with his two machismo brothers in Southern California.

His Backstory:
Thirty-two-year-old Winston Makena is beautiful, intelligent and intimidating. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but no amount of money can relieve the enormous grief he is suffering from his husband’s sudden death.
