The Regiment of Majestic Gays
Kieran’s facing a big birthday and he’s invited his old friends. Except it’s not quite how he imagined. Single. Forever. Julian and Troy, although they worry, are grateful for time away from their daughter. Left alone, they’re completely wrapped up with each other. Kieran’s delighted. Not jealous at all. Then there’s Bjorn who’s unsure he’ll manage a whole weekend without having sex with at least one man. Why’s he questioning what he misses from his f**k buddy friendship with Julian? Poor Tony’s been dating as if his life depended on it, and his boyfriend is…interesting? The Human League’s songs aren’t helping him with this decision. Last but not least: long-lost David, whose plus-one is his husband. If their marriage is perfect, why’s David so miserable? Eight friends, lovers, wine and history going back from two weeks to twenty years… What could go wrong? This book is a stand-alone gay fiction story with romantic elements. It can be read alone, but it also forms part of a series where each of the friends eventually earns his own Happy Ever After.
I Should Be So Lucky
Julian is a flamboyant backing dancer for Australian pop princess, Sallie. He loves touring with Sallie as it means he has gentlemen friends for the night in every European city. Backrooms in Berlin, cruisy bars in Barcelona, Julian’s enjoyed it all. And if he doesn’t pull while he’s on tour, he ends up in bed with best friend and fellow dancer, Bjorn. Troy, a quiet, gruff St John Ambulance volunteer, and gardener at a stately home in Essex, has just split up from his third supposedly serious girlfriend in the last few years. He doesn’t understand why he can’t make relationships last. A failed serial monogamist, he’s obviously doing something wrong. One night, at a Sallie concert...
Don't You Want Me
Tony Looking for love in all the wrong places. Toe-curling, guilt-laden sex with ‘married men seeking discreet fun’. Why doesn’t anyone want a social worker by day, drag queen by night and a Human League fan all day long? He deletes the hook-up apps, swears off men. Mentoring Nick, they move beyond friendship. Forced to share a hotel room, Nick’s mixed signals point towards one conclusion. (Hint: it’s well beyond professional.) Nick Recently single, he’s trying to work out who he is without his ex-boyfriend, who told Nick he’s too this, not enough that, being gay in the wrong way. His career gives him purpose, direction. Yet he wants more from Tony than an employee should from his boss. After their passionate night, he needs more than friendship—f**k buddies…or forever boyfriends. (Hint: it’s well beyond physical.) Except Tony’s sworn off men… Don’t You Want Me is a friends-to-lovers, forced-proximity, boss/employee gay romance featuring more emotional baggage than allowed by most airlines, lots of kissing and more, plus a guaranteed happy ever after.

Love on the Dancefloor
Why does he want to ruin a perfectly good friendship by becoming boyfriends? Why would someone from Paul’s background have any interest in ordinary boy-next-door Tom? Tom is quiet and awkward, especially after his ex told him he was nothing. Besides, Tom’s too nerdy, too organised, too shy to ask anyone out ever again. Except maybe Paul. When Paul talks to him, Tom feels fabulous, he feels brave. When Paul looks after him, Tom thinks maybe he’s not nothing. He wants to go wherever Paul, with his rich parents and monthly allowance, leads—to places Tom’s working-class background hasn’t allowed him before. But there’s one problem. Paul’s love of the party drug ecstasy starts with him taking it sometimes, moves onto often, then to usually, until soon it’s always. Tom’s unsure if Paul’s a bad influence on him, or he’s a bad influence on Paul. With a nerd, friends to lovers, clash of backgrounds, partying, dancing and lots of recreational drug use, Love On The Dancefloor is a stand-alone gay romance that asks: can you really make yourself stop loving someone?
The Emotional Wound Thesaurus: A Writer's Guide to Psychological Trauma

To deliver key players that are both realistic and compelling, writers must know them intimately—not only who they are in the present story, but also what made them that way.

The aftershocks of trauma can change who they are, alter what they believe, and sabotage their ability to achieve meaningful goals, all of which will affect the trajectory of your story. Identifying the backstory wound is crucial to understanding how it will shape your character’s behavior, and The Emotional Wound Thesau...
