A gay romcom novella series with buckets of banter, dashes of comic tragedy, and more food and booze than any story ought to have.

Arthur is a highly strung closet case who may have just run into a reason to come out, and Gabriel has escaped the confines of his hometown only to find himself drawn right back into someone else’s orbit.

With our boys surrounded by a cast of chaotic characters and thrown into the most unlikely situations, the Rise and Shine series is a quick, light, and fun read.

Get stuck into Arthur’s antics in Duck and Dive, follow it up with Gabriel’s side of the story in Slip and Slide, then bring it home in Over and Out.
