About this listen

Rob and Karan are a great couple, but they're tearing apart under the pressures of modern life. They both work as paramedics for the NHS, and just before Christmas, their plans for the future are in jeopardy.

Rob knows he's on thin ice with the man he loves more than anyone else in the world, and he's at a loss to fix it. The job is getting tougher, and Karan, who's of Sikh descent, is facing violence on the streets in the wake of Britain's decision to leave the EU. Financial problems, hostile families on both sides.... Their troubles seem insoluble.

An emergency callout stops them on the brink of a final and heartbreaking row. In a forest on the bleak northern hills, Rob loses control of the van in the snow. The only gleam of light comes from a strange, lonely house among the trees. Lost, cut off from the world they know, can they find their way back to one another? It's the longest night of the year, and spirits are abroad among the pines....

Winter magical realism

That was a lovely treat to listen to. Set in contemporary Britain and narrated perfectly. Thoroughly enjoyed this short story

Short and Sweet

I enjoyed this story, however short it was. I would say that the ending was just a touch weak, and the title wasn't very compelling, but I was invested in the story as little as 15 minutes in.

To boil it down a bit, this story follows the lover's quarrel between two male paramedics, and how a response to a call helped to mend theor failing relationship. While the twist was predictable, it was still engaging and worth listening to.

I'm not sure why this title is free, as I would have gladly paid for it, but I will happily add it to my little library of queer stories!
