About this ebook
Three delightful short stories about how love begins in the most unexpected ways.
Susan Mac Nicol
'The Official Stuff' Susan writes steamy, sexy, and fun contemporary romance stories, some suspenseful, some gritty and dark, and she hopes, always entertaining. She’s also Editor-in-Chief at Divine Magazine, an online LGBTQ e-zine, and a member of The Society of Authors, the Writers Guild of Great Britain, and the Authors Guild in the US. Susan is also an award-winning screenplay writer, with scripts based on two of her own published works. Sight Unseen has garnered no less than five awards to date, and her TV pilot, Reel Life, based on her debut novel, Cassandra by Starlight, was also a winner at the Oaxaca Film Fest.. 'The Unofficial Stuff' Susan loves going to the theatre, live music concerts (especially if it’s her man-crush Adam Lambert), walks in the countryside, a good G and T, lazing away afternoons reading a good book, and watching re-runs of Silent Witness. Her chequered past includes stories like being mistaken for a prostitute in the city of Johannesburg, being chased by a rhino on a dusty Kenyan road, getting kicked out of a youth club for being a bad influence (she encouraged free thinking), and having an aunt who was engaged to Cliff Richard.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
This little anthology came about because I had a short story that was originally included in the Over the Rainbow Anthology for the victims of the Pulse shooting in Orlando, Florida, and I didn’t know what to do with it. I mentioned it to my publisher, who in true publisher fashion said, Just write another couple of stories to go with this one, and we’ll pop it out as a new short story trilogy release.
Ermm, okay. I’ll get to it then? No problem at all to produce another few thousand words on top of finishing a screenplay and trying to write the next Men of London book. She cracks the whip; I listen.
Her confidence and faith in me were sustained, and I managed to tap these out in a couple of days. Go me. Who needs food, sleep and family time?
One of the stories, Dear Davey, is a little tongue-in-cheek look at two coworkers of mine at Eunisure Limited, where I have my day job. (See, boss, free advertising! Do I get a raise now?) Davey actually exists, although he’s not gay. He’s as cute as a button though, and is the office comedian. Becca is my bestie at work. We sit opposite each other and trade weird news, fantasies and fan-girl crushes. Hers is Jake Gyllenhaal. You’re no stranger to mine :) For whatever reason, these two people leapt into my creative world and I made them mine. So, thanks to Davey for letting me make him a gay diva, and thanks to Becca for the way I describe her in the book. She had quite a chuckle.
The other stories are simply
