    Summary

    Nick Nelson is a lobsterman on his brother David’s boat. He spends all of his time on the water, or in bed with a new tourist every week. Then he meets Charlie Spring.

    OF NOTE: I had an idea for a new ending. The "Ambiguous Ending" tag was removed and the "Angst with a Happy Ending" tag was added.

    Summary

    Charlie raked his eyes across the audience, the spotlight pointing directly at him making them faceless figures out there in the shadows. One hand locked into the edge of his midnight blue cape and swept it up and around in front of him as he pulled his black silk top hat deeper into his curls with the other hand.

    “Welcome, one and all!” he boomed as his arm dragged the heavy fabric back the other way. “Bienvenidos al Circo del Chaval Chalado!”

    Summary

    First Light - Between darkness and sunrise lies a glimmer of hope and the promise of a new day.

    27-year-old Nick Nelson finds himself living temporarily back at home with his mum following the end of his rugby career and his long term relationship. Needing a new focus he finds himself trawling the internet one night and discovers a mesmerising opportunity, the kind of opportunity he'd usually be quick to turn down, because that's what he's always done, stayed safe, taken the obvious path, and look where that's got him!
    Deciding to go for it, he's expecting hard work, long hours and no social life.
    What he's not expecting are a whole host of new neighbours and friends, including one who makes him question everything he thought he knew about himself.
    However, Nick is hiding a big secret. A secret that, if revealed, could drive a wedge between him, his new friends and the one person he never knew he needed in his life.

    Summary

    Charlie is alone, by design, researching instances of curiously tinted mists and other mystical occurrences. The story will see him take refuge in a quaint inn, and seek guidance from a friend who runs a rather magical tea-room in the woods. There are mysteries to unravel, and friendships to forge, all while a dragon needs some TLC.
