Gayinterest Stories

Jasper Claxton was only twenty when he died in the early part of the 18th century in Newgate prison in London, because of gross injustice and cruel, barbaric beliefs, and practices. He's now a super ghost who travels through time, helping others who are either the victims of crime, or troublesome and dangerous spirits. The Ghost from the Molly-House is a collection of five, short, ghost stories, some traditional and some with a modern twist. In the first story, the year is 2017, it's London Fashion Week, and Jasper helps a top fashion designer who is suspected of the murder of a billionaire businessman. The next story takes place in 1973 where Jasper helps a lonely teenager, Simon, who's on the brink of suicide. The Fazakerley Incident is set in Wales in 1923 at a large country house and tells the story of a séance and a vengeful poltergeist. The Pluckley Incident takes place in 1934 and involves a disturbed grave, symbols, possible devil worship, and the stealing of souls. The fifth story returns to Simon in 2015.

Quiet, thoughtful, and hopelessly awkward, Luca has always lived on the sidelines, more at ease in the rhythm of routine than with anything new or uncertain. Riley, by contrast, is a walking contradiction: fearless but private, magnetic yet mysterious, with a grin that could talk its way out of anything. Their friendship shouldn't have worked... but it did. It blossomed into something steady, comforting, and quietly undeniable. They never meant for things to change, but quiet confessions and lingering glances slowly eroded the boundary between their predictable world and the one they showed at school. When Riley returns from a trip, tanner, more grounded, and unmistakably bolder, Luca begins to question whether their lines are strong enough to hold back what's coming. As their bond deepens into something fragile but powerful, the space between best friends and something more becomes harder to define. Luca must learn to be seen, not just by others, but by himself, and break free from patterns he once believed protected him. And Riley, who always seemed untouchable, finally lets someone in past the armor of charm and humor. But young love is rarely simple. It's messy, intense, and full of risks. With rumors swirling and curious eyes everywhere, both boys are forced to face the questions they've been avoiding. What if we say it out loud? What if they all know? And what if our secret is no longer... Just Between Us?
