Tom

What starts as a bit of fun, stirs up a whole new bunch of emotions.On a lazy Sunday afternoon in London at the Haven Hotel, the outrageous and uninhibited Tom introduces his fellow escorts to the joys of an inflatable hot tub in the garden, even if it's more urban-casual than Florida-chic.He gets mixed reactions: one of the guys finds it weird, another has better things to do, and the hotel owners are frantically trying to find time to have a private conversation involving some kind of proposal. Tom is left on his own to enjoy the tub, but that's okay because he's used to looking after himself. He's been on his own for years, he's never had someone caring for him alone, and he's never done 'Romance'. No, he's all about fun, friends, sexy times, and protecting his heart - because no one else will.Until he's joined by a sophisticated businessman, just passing through, who's not only hot and intriguing, but also seems fascinated by Tom. The escorts call their punters by nicknames, but Mr Flash isn't remotely like Tom's usual clientele. He's something much more special.And there may even be a future in it for them both.A SHORT STORY IN THE LOVE AT THE HAVEN SERIES.
