  When a gentleman called Joan lands up in a care home, Jim doesn't know what's hit him—everything about his new neighbour is triggering. And Joan is a colourful, combustible cocktail—ticking. Battle begins. May the best man win. But beneath antics and antique armour plating, what are both hiding? And maybe they just may be batting for the same team. An uproarious and uplifting romantic comedy about grey liberation.
  "An enchanting romance - funny, touching and inspiring" — STEPHEN FRY
  "It's very funny, very touching and has the absolute ring of truth about it. One can't but fall in love with these two more or less impossible people, as they fall in love with each other." — SIMON CALLOW
  >
  "A warm, joyful and ingenious tale of gay love from the UK's Armistead Maupin." — JOELLE TAYLOR
  "I adored this book. Touching. Heartwarming. Funny. Sad. Beautifully drawn characters I wanted to spend more time with…" — JONATHAN HARVEY
  "When we forget our gay elders and the radical queer people who lived so we could fly, we forget ourselves. Nathan Evans has not just remembered these elder angels, he has painted them with humour, love, truth and glory. This is a gem of a novella with characters to cherish." — ADAM ZMITH
  "One Last Song is a beautiful, smouldering, hilarious and sparkling testament to queer intimacy and the revolutionary potency of queer creative activism. Every page filled my heart with Pride." — DAN GLASS
  "One Last Song is edgy, funny and moving. A heady mix that packs an emotional punch." — PAUL MCVEIGH
  "Touching, powerful, punchy, funny and sweet. An absolute delight." — DAVID SHANNON
  "One Last Song is a necessary love story, both profoundly moving and profoundly optimistic. It will almost inevitably infiltrate your heart." – MARTIN SHERMAN
  Nathan says, "The fight for gay rights began in the sixties; some of its original warriors are now in their seventies and eighties, facing new battles with infirmity and isolation. This story is for them. I first told it in screenplay: it attracted the attachment of Simon Callow and Richard Wilson, but insufficient investment. I then told it as stage play: it attracted Arts Council funding (and rave reviews) for a site-specific performance at the legendary RVT, for one-night-only. It's a story that's always needed a wider audience. A story that remains un(der)told. Queer love in the care home? Here it comes in novel form."

  Jackson Kincaid 
   
   
   
  When my best friend, Allison, died in a car accident, I suddenly became the parent of my ten-year-old godson. How was I supposed to play football for the Portland Pirates and be a full-time single dad? Adjusting is the name of the game. But thanks to my friends, and Simon, the team doctor, we'll heal and make it through. 
   
   
   
  Did I mention he's my best friend, and I can't stop my having dirty thoughts about getting him naked? Keeping my feelings a secret isn't easy or the only obstacle I'll face. 
   
   
   
  Simon Taylor 
   
   
   
  As my new friends like to say, I'm the hardass team doctor that lets nothing get by me. But somehow, Jackson did. While helping him adjust to his new reality, I wasn't prepared for my new feelings for him to surface. Especially when I didn't know I had them. Jackson and his godson have stolen my heart and aren't letting go. 
   
   
   
  It doesn't matter that our relationship might be considered forbidden or that he's fifteen years younger than me. I want things with him that I've never wanted with anyone else. Especially a man. Jackson and I deserve to be together no matter how rough things get. Some things are just worth it. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  Fletcher 
  I’m a total nerd, but I look like a jock. I had a perfect GPA in high school, and my GPA in college is perfect too. I smile when I’m supposed to smile. I have two loving parents and a brother and sister who are always by my side. I’m the perfect all-American guy. 
  But the only thing that actually defines me is the before. The things I keep hidden deep inside because I’m too afraid of losing what I have now. 
  The past lives deep inside me as I force the plastic smile on my face. And no one sees through it because I’m just that good. 
  No one except . . . him. 
  Ronan 
  Every day is like a dream. A dream I live, not knowing when I’ll wake and find I’m still living in a nightmare. 
  I never made it out, and these past few years have all been fake. 
  Then he walks into my classroom . . . with that cocky smile in place. Not a care in the world. I doubt he’s ever had to worry about a thing in his entire life. 
  He's exactly like all of the entitled, spoiled brats I teach every day in my part of the college campus, but something about Fletcher Moore really rubs me the wrong way. 
  I shouldn’t let him get to me, but something about him makes me too angry. Too annoyed. 
  Just too damn . . . hostile.

  It was love at first sight . . . with my professor. What's a dragon to do? 
   
   
   
  For two years, I've been pining over Professor Sarris. I knew the moment I saw him that we were meant for each other, but it's not to be. For one thing, I was his student, and he's the most ethical man I know. For another, he has no idea I'm actually a four-thousand-year-old dragon from another dimension. 
   
   
   
  When my people fled to Earth to avoid extinction, I vowed to clean up my life and stop acting like a fledgling. It's bad enough that nobody takes me seriously . . . sure, maybe I used to be flighty and irresponsible and caused a few interspecies incidents, but that's all in the past. I have big plans for the future, and this college gig is the first step in proving myself. I'm not endangering this fresh start for anyone. 
   
   
   
  But then my professor and I wind up at the same party, and suddenly it seems he's not completely out of reach. Except I'm still the adorable flirt nobody wants to rely on, and convincing him we should be together while proving I'm a changed dragon is a monumental task. 
   
   
   
  Good thing I'm up for the challenge.
