Sweet as Candy

By Mags Hayward

The first Jubilee Park Pride is in full swing and Kate’s soaking up the carnival atmosphere and energy of the flamboyant crowd. Although she’s there to support the event organizer, her best friend Danny, Pride has a special place in her heart.

She loves being a part of it, but doesn’t expect to find love. Never having had a girlfriend, Kate lacks confidence and can’t imagine meeting a girl and falling in love on the same day. That happens to other people. Certainly not to her.

But Candy’s different: beautiful, confident, yet down to earth and easy to talk to. Kate’s never met anyone like her. Has Fate brought her and Candy together? Or will Kate be broken-hearted when the festival ends?

Sweet as Candy

By Mags Hayward

She was standing on the platform mere feet away. Wearing Daisy Dukes and a plain white off-the-shoulder T-shirt, her petite frame looked incongruous with the voluminous, multi-coloured locks which spilled onto her shoulders like a waterfall dipped in a rainbow.

Kate!

Kate knew that voice. Grabbed from the side, she was lifted off her feet and held in a crushing bear hug. Squealing, she protested, Danny Jessop, put me down! Honestly, it’s only been a week.
