Well-known current affairs investigator David Chase, nick-named 'the axe' from popular segment 'Cut to the Chase,' has been on the tail of a murderer who was released from jail after killing a man but who claims he was a wolf man at the time. A good old-fashioned right-wing 'moral outrage sensationalist' field-operative, Chase doesn't like what he sees happening to the news world around him—especially at his long-standing conservative TV Network, CNT (we missed 'u'), which, under the spinning eye of Veronica Fox, is reverting to myth making, 'false facts' and disinformation.

Torren King is rock-and-roll’s broodiest bachelor. Mysterious, moody, and coveted by nearly everyone. But to me, he’s just the sad boy who set fire to my heart, then reduced me to ashes in the desert. For four sweltering nights, I burned for him, and he conquered my heart one whispered lyric at a time. But on the fifth night, he shattered me in the way only a flawless rock god can: irreparably, and with devastating finesse.

These four MMF short stories bring the heat with the kind of immersive writing that takes you right into these characters’ worlds, from the hard streets of the LA underground crime scene to an Australian vacation, to a London college town and a luxury NYC loft. Each story is completely different from the next, but they all share one thing—whether it’s their first time or a long-term thing, these guys are bi and they don’t hold back.

In Larrikins in Khaki, Tim Bowden has collected compelling and vivid stories of individual soldiers whose memoirs were mostly self-published and who told of their experiences with scant regard for literary pretensions and military niceties. NCOs and officers who were hopeless at their jobs were made aware of it - they laughed their way through the worst of it by taking the mickey out of one another and their superiors.

Only Club Duval has been closed for over a year, and play time is long over. Five kings, and four have fallen for the same woman. Oleg Balashov and Dr. Henri Gerard have the pleasure of calling her their pet, only Samantha Hunter doesn’t quite fit the description. She's neither pet nor feral, neither predator nor prey, neither submissive nor dominant. Samantha is all those things in one, and she doesn’t want to choose.

Moody lighting, intimate corners, and pulsing, magnetic energy is what makes a club the place to be for a hot night.

Drop in on these sexy shorts from Alyssa Turner, Kate Briggs, Gwen Dylan, and Stacey Wallace.

Vernon and Penelope never want to see their son Caleb again. Not after he bashed his wife and ended up in gaol. A lifetime of careful parental love wiped out in a moment. But when Vernon, a retired teacher, hears that Caleb is being regularly visited and savagely beaten by a local criminal as the police stand by, he knows he has to act. What has his life as a father been if he turns his back on his son in his hour of desperate need? He realises with shame that he has grievously failed Caleb. No longer.

The joys and the harsh realities of farm life, from a writer whose family has farmed the same piece of land for five generations. Farmer Tim Saunders manages to incorporate some writing into his days, and here he describes his life through the seasons: summer, shearing, slaughter, crop harvest, conservation; autumn, floods, trading stock, drenching, dagging; winter, maize harvest, lambing; and spring, docking, pet sheep, weaning. It's a tough life, and through his powerful, poignant writing Tim tells of his connection to the land.
