    ***Highly Commended in the Ellipsis Zine Flash Collection Contest*** 
    A mother watches her son grow from a sweet child into a troubled adult... 
    A jilted lover finds hope one magical evening... 
    A cobbler breathes life back into a pair of lucky shoes... 
    Animal Behaviour titles each of its short stories with animal facts, but the experiences they describe are very much human. The cast of characters is diverse but the world they inhabit is universal: one in which all of us will recognise fragments of our own lives in some form, an echo of our shared humanity. 
    This second edition contains six new stories, unpublished anywhere else. 
    “Bold in voice, rich in metaphor, daring in approach, Animal Behaviour is a startling debut. In these very short tales, Amanda McLeod demonstrates an uncanny understanding of life and the living. By turns strange, beautiful, aching and transcendent, these stories and the humans how inhabit them will leave their mark on your mind and heart long past the final page. Highly recommended.” 
    —Kathy Fish, author of Wild Life: Collected Works from 2003-2018

Blending the psychological horror of Stephen King with Anne Rice's gothic sensibilities, this spine-tingling story explores the thin line between artistic devotion and madness. As the piano's hunger grows, Heath must face the terrifying possibility that some melodies are better left unplayed. 
    If the Appassionata must be played, then the musician is really going to have to kill it!

    Ryleigh Donovan has been unsuccessfully dodging her mother’s matchmaking attempts for far too long. In an act of desperation, she finds the one guy in her small town who is guaranteed to shock everyone to be her fake boyfriend. It doesn’t need to be for long—she just needs to buy herself enough time to recover from her mother’s last disastrous fix-up. It’s really a fool-proof plan. But when a few staged kisses lead to some very real feelings, she realizes she might be in over her head. Ryker Masella has been patiently waiting for the perfect opportunity to get Ryleigh to take him—and his numerous attempts at asking her out—seriously. When she grabs him and kisses him in front of her family to prove a point, he’s more than on board. But when she proposes a fake—and temporary—relationship, he’s 100% on board. After all, she might be all about pretending, but he sees it as a way for Ryleigh to truly see the real him. Fake flirting and orchestrated dates quickly bring on real feelings. For Ryker, they’ve always been there, and he’ll be as patient as he needs to be. She might have asked him to save her from her family, but what he wants is to save her from herself. Each book in the Donovans series can be read as a standalone.
