gay all year: twelve stories

In Gay All Year: Twelve Stories by Richard May, there’s a story for every month. Each story features a holiday or event that happens that month. In all of them, two men meet, connect, and begin sorting out a potential relationship.

For instance, in January, a jogging priest and a dogwalker run into each other in San Francisco and have their own Epiphanies. For June, a soldier in Oklahoma looking for a daddy tries out several men on his way to find one for Fathers Day. At the end of the year, a young man in New York receives eight unusual-and kinky-Hanukkah gifts.

Read a story a month or all twelve together. In Gay All Year, all kinds of men in wildly different situations connect over holidays you know and probably some you don’t. Celebrate along with all of them!

With Gay All Year Richard May has proven himself to be a master of the MM romance short story. The book is a delicious box of twelve unique treats, each filled with characters that you can’t help but fall for, and stories that will remind you that love can find us when, and where, we least expect it.

Richard May’s stories in Gay All Year take you places-geographically, intellectually, and emotionally--and the characters speak to the reader the way one might to a close friend. Thestories resonate long after you turn the page.＂
-Anna Mantzaris, author of Occupations

Richard May’s Gay All Year exceeds what its title promises. The first story, ＂Epiphany,＂ in itself is worth the price of entry. The author’s ease in describing and navigating complicated situations is remarkable and would be the envy of any good raconteur!＂
