Pole Star

By Josephine Myles

It's hard to flirt when sequins are chafing your bits...

Injured pole dancer Matt Lovell meets attractive radiographer Sal when he's in casualty for an x-ray. Trouble is, Matt's firefighter outfit is pretty convincing, and the longer he keeps up the pretence the harder it will be to reveal the naked truth: that there's nothing underneath his costume but a sequin-covered thong!

Josephine Myles

English through and through, Josephine Myles is addicted to tea and busy cultivating a reputation for eccentricity. She writes gay erotica and romance, but finds the erotica keeps cuddling up to the romance, and the romance keeps corrupting the erotica. Jo blames her rebellious muse but he never listens to her anyway, no matter how much she threatens him with a big stick. She’s beginning to suspect he enjoys it. Jo now has over a dozen novels and novellas under her belt. Her novel Stuff won the 2014 Rainbow Award for Best Bisexual Romance, and her novella Merry Gentlemen won the 2014 Rainbow Award for Best Gay Romantic Comedy. She loves to be busy, and is currently having fun trying to work out how she is going to fit in her love of writing, dressmaking and attending cabaret shows in fabulous clothing around the demands of a preteen with special needs and an insatiably curious toddler.

For Lou, who gave me the prompt that sparked the whole thing off.

I knew we were made for each other when I first clapped eyes on his frog-patterned scrubs. Normally I’d run off in the other direction when faced with a man wearing what were essentially pyjamas to work, but this time... well, they matched my boxers.

Not that I was wearing my froggy boxers right then, of course. No, I’d come to hospital straight from a job and was still in my firefighter’s costume, minus one boot and sock, of course. Boxers were strictly for days off, when it didn’t matter what my underwear looked like.

I wondered what undies he had on. Probably something comfortable—unlike the sequinned flame-patterned thong that was currently trying to cheesewire my buttocks. Damn A&E waiting times. I was never normally in my work clothes for long enough to realise how bloody impractical they were.

Matt Lovell? Frog-scrubs asked.

I leapt to my feet, then the pain hit me as the tiled floor made contact with my naked, swollen foot. Shit! I mean, yeah. That’s me. Arrgh, that bloody kills!

I realised I was probably coming across as a bit of a wuss, but damn, my foot hurt like a bastard. I tried for what I hoped was a winning smile, and attempted to distract myself from the agony by taking a closer look at the doctor. His dark eyes had smudgy shadows underneath and drooped appealingly at the corners like he’d just

I found it somewhat entertaining, but very forgetable. 2.5 stars.

Serious warm and fuzzy alert! This was super short, but it packed a great warm hearted love story into a small package. I loved it! Lovers of M/M romance with 10 minutes to spare, read this!
