Book Blurb

Two strangers on a plane, one heading to Paris, the other Barcelona, both trying to get to their families in time for the holidays. It's Christmas Eve, and all they have in common is a connection through London. When flights get delayed and cancelled, that connection goes beyond an airport, a terminal, and a secluded meeting room. And for Lance and Bruce, Christmas morning will hold even more joyous miracles.

A story from the Dreamspinner Press 2014 Advent Calendar package "Celebrate!".

Book Review

I suppose being as familiar as I am with Rob Rosen's work probably helped me to take some of this short story with tongue in cheek, as I believe he meant it. 'The Virgin Miracle' is a story included in Dreamspinner Press's 2014 Advent Calendar 'Celebrate!' This is the story of two men who get incredibly lucky flying on Christmas Eve. Who knows whether finding each other is their own miracle?

Christmas Eve, Virgin Atlantic flight to London. 36A strikes up a conversation with 36B. Which leads to a hot, mutual masturbation scene in the bathroom, á la Mile-High Club. When they reach Heathrow, Bruce's flight to Barcelona is delayed until the following morning, and Lance's to Paris is cancelled, with no flight until two days later. No problem. Lance flies so much, he's a member of Virgin Atlantic's frequent flier program, which allows him, plus one, access to the club room. Where else can two guys with great chemistry, get free drinks, and a locked conference room to spend Christmas Eve together?

Even with all of its quirkiness, I enjoyed this short. Maybe because the ending left me with the prospects for a future between these two men. And there's no getting around it, I can think of worse ways to spend a layover in an airport. Thanks, Rob, it was fun.
