DEATHBED KISSES is a collection of quirky and humourous stories, told from a gay perspective and designed to illustrate the frustrations and obsessions of love, where to find it, and how to get the ultimate revenge. From the mystery of a suitcase walled up inside the closet of a Hollywood bungalow for fifty years, to the hustler who falls in love with a client, or the young boy who develops a crush on the matinee idol upstairs boarder, the stories of DEATHBED KISSES are profoundly universal and uniquely entertaining. DEATHBED KISSES is a sampling of ten intriguing stories of relationship and love, some with seemingly insurmountable obstacles, others with a whimsy and penchant for the absurd that make them universal tales for anyone, gay or straight, who has ever searched for that elusive thing called love. 37 GRAMERCY PARK - The reputation of a celebrated Manhattan man-about-town is put in jeopardy when an amourous classmate from a forgotten life threatens to expose him for the imposter he is. JAVA JITTERS - An aging lothario attempts to woo a dazzling counter boy at the local coffee shop only to find that he has gone to a lot of trouble for nothing. UNDER THE HOLLYWOOD SIGN - The mystery of what became of aspiring actress Peggy DeCarlo and why her suitcase had been walled up inside a closet of a Hollywood bungalow for over half a century is finally revealed. DEATHBED KISSES - A movie buff agrees to tutor a hunky convert to the gay lifestyle, only to find that the line between teacher and lover can blur with both poignant and life-changing consequences. RULES OF THE GAME - Two middle-aged women, who enjoy a tradition of vacationing together with their philandering husbands, have the last laugh. M4M - An amusing but unsettling story of a Hollywood hustler who decides to better his lot in life and falls in love with a handsome 'straight' client who he is determined to seduce into becoming his husband. A FABULOUS WOMAN - An alluring woman leads a love
