Summary
Offices are boring. Or that’s what John MacTavish had always thought, at least. Twenty-six years on the earth, and he’d managed to avoid the concept of a desk job until one fateful evening with his closest friend, his friend's boss and too many vodka cokes. Kyle Garrick had landed him the dream job he never thought he wanted.
The dream wasn’t really the work, though. More the hunk of a man in the office across from his, with a mysterious demeanour and masked face.
Bolts, Nuts & Papercuts is a story laced with daft British humour, too many trips to the pub, and a chance to follow along with two steamy office romances. Johnny and Simon, an unlikely duo who find they have a lot in common after Johnny goes through a rough breakup, and Price and Kyle, who navigate not only their boss and PA relationship, but the relationship with Price’s family from his former marriage.
But perhaps most importantly, this is a story about life. All the ups and downs, the parts that make us laugh, and cry, and all the emotions in-between.
Written by a disgruntled British office worker, I hope this silly, campy, maybe slightly over-the-top story brings you more joy than I get from the coffee machine at 08:00.

Summary
It’s the second week of October when the doctor takes Simon’s cast off. Bones healed just fine, but he’s not in his 20s anymore - as Johnny has kindly reminded - and needs some exercise to bounce back before getting cleared for active duty again. Soap feels responsible for his broken fingers too, so he takes it upon himself to help plan out some extra PT exercises for his superior. If they just so happen to become more and more date-like, well, call it a perk.
