This is a love story twenty-two years in the making. Tomas and Raphael have been joined at the hip since they first met working in a tiny restaurant in London. They’ve survived dingy flat shares, bad breakups, even worse divorces and everything in between. And they’ve never been anything more than friends. When one night and a bottle of vodka leads to a shift in their relationship, Tomas and Raphael are forced to reexamine everything—from feelings they thought they’d shut away, to their own sexuality. Can their friendship survive the fallout? Or have they simply been in denial for the last twenty-two years? Twenty-Two Years is a standalone 11,000 word contemporary MM romance short story. It’s full of food, vodka and a fortieth birthday bixsexual awakening.

Charlie lives in England with her husband and a dachshund named Biscuit. She spends most of her days wrangling other people’s words in her day job and then trying to force her own onto the page in the evening. She loves cute stories with a healthy dollop of fluff, plenty of delicious sex, and happily ever afters – because the world needs more of them. Charlie also believes that love comes in all shapes and sizes. Charlie has very little spare time, but what she does have she fills with cooking, pole-dancing, reading and ice-hockey. She also thinks that everyone should have at least one favourite dinosaur…
