Finn's rugby career was brought to a premature end by a crunching tackle, shattering his confidence and leaving him shy and insecure about his sexuality, despite his size. But understanding how it feels to lose courage in the face of a shaky future, he volunteers at a homeless shelter.
One night he gives up his shoes to a homeless man. Of course, that's the night he finally gets an opportunity to talk to Sam, the cute twink he's been crushing on. Shoeless, breathless, not at his best ? it's no wonder Sam mistakes Finn for another man down on his luck.
This story originally appeared in the 'A Taste of Honey' anthology.
Autorentext
Lillian Francis. Author of gay romance. Happy Endings guaranteed. Eventually.
Lillian Francis is a self-confessed geek who likes nothing more than settling down with a comic or a good book, except maybe writing. Given a notepad, pen, her Kindle, and an infinite supply of chocolate Hob Nobs and she can lose herself for weeks. Romance was never her reading matter of choice, so it came as a great surprise to all concerned, including herself, to discover a romance was exactly what she'd written, and not the rollicking spy adventure or cosy murder mystery she always assumed she'd write.
