In Gwynn Marssen’s moving short story, 'Running Away From Sunshine', Jake, an emergency room doctor, has run away from the sunshine and surfing of California to the wintry cold and snowboarding of Calgary. Nobody in his new home knows he is gay, and nobody needs to know, since he doesn’t plan to let anyone in… until he meets Gabriel Montgomery, the carefree hockey player with the big blue eyes who just won’t take no for an answer when it comes to opening up and accepting the possibility of love.Ī story from the Dreamspinner Press 2013 Daily Dose package "Make a Play". Nobody knows Jake hasn’t always been a silent loner. Nobody knows why ER resident Jake Nichols left California to move to cold and dark Calgary, Canada.
