Summer Tales — Bruce K. Beck

Welcome to Book One of my new Four Seasons Series of short story collections.  In SUMMER TALES, you meet seven sets of characters I find irresistible—so much so that I decided to stay with them for the coming seasons.  You'll discover a handsome collection of New Yorkers and the people who love them, all striving to build satisfying lives in the Big City while the summer sun blesses them. Welcome to a weekend in the country with some risky business; a surprise encounter of the gender sort; a holiday in Fire Island where running on the beach naked at dawn is the tamest pursuit; a budding romance under the last supermoon of summer; old flames in new proximities.  And lots more.  Seven different takes on life and love in New York City as the lazy—and not so lazy—days of summer unfold. Look for AUTUMN TALES, WINTER TALES, and SPRING TALES, coming soon from Bruce K Beck and Audacity Books.
