Please welcome Susan Mac Nicol Today!!
I used to work in the West End of London – the theatre district – which was an amazing experience even if it did take me two hours each day to get to work.

The West End is a magical place
to experience the cosmopolitan flavour of London, and a great place for people
watching. Especially if you have a yen to try and spot someone famous.
At Christmas, though, it shines
brighter than ever. To get home, I walked back to the tube station about half a
mile away, through the teeming streets of people, and snapped some shots of
London in full Christmas regalia.
The vibe is something to be
experienced, an excitement in the sir, coupled with a lot of swearing from
fighting couples tired of endless shopping, and tempered with the quickfire
conversation of Japanese tourists. And the men in kilts playing the bag pipes
were a welcome addition too 😊
It is a city that never sleeps,
like a hummingbird that flies on the periphery of your vision and catches your
attention. And you fly along with it, caught up in its thrall and soak up the
season in all its vibrant and sparkly majesty.
Leslie's feeling the season in a big way. After the Kissmas Drag Stravaganza at Club Delish, he plans to ask Oliver to marry him, but, as with all things Leslie, nothing goes quite as planned.

About the Book:
Leslie Scott couldn't keep a secret if his life depended on it...and this one's a doozy. After years of blissful co-habbing, Leslie plans to ask the love of his life, Oliver Brown, for his hand in marriage. Leslie agrees to help with the Kissmas Drag Stravaganza at his dear friend's nightclub, Club Delish, which is also the site of the impending proposal.
Every detail is planned with Swiss watch precision: enjoy the show, bring Oliver back to a private room, seduce him then pop the question. But, as with all things Leslie, his scheme goes tits up.
Never one to shy away from drama and public displays of affection, this proposal turns out to be one for the books.
Finally, the
door opened to reveal a pink faced and flustered Leslie, hair suspiciously out
of shape and with silver glitter on his face. He beamed at Oliver. “I’ll just
get my jacket, and my man bag and be with you in a second.”
The door shut in
Oliver’s face and he stared at it in disbelief.
What the hell is
going on in there?
He opened the
door and entered. Leslie looked up with a start and Oliver couldn't help but
notice the other man bent over in the corner, covering something up with a
piece of fabric. A man who had a very nice arse and when he finally stood up to
face him, looked like a Latin wet dream. The man was petite and utterly
gorgeous. And looked as guilty as hell.
“What’s up,
sweetheart?” Oliver strode over to his boyfriend and pulled him close for a
kiss. Leslie melted against him and returned the kiss with fervour. When they finally
drew apart, Leslie seemed to realise someone else was in the room with them.
“Uh, honey, this
is Chester. He works here with me. Chester, my boyfriend Oliver, if you hadn’t
already guessed by that kiss. That very possessive kiss.” Leslie’s eyes glinted
dangerously and he brushed a strand of glittered hair back from his face.
Oliver didn’t care if he’d overstepped the mark. He wasn’t a jealous man, and
trusted Leslie, but this situation was a little weird. If Leslie could
embarrass porn stars on his behalf, Oliver could stake a claim.
