It Never Happened is an explicit het Star Trek: TOS novel by Sue Embury. It has the subtitle: "...or did it?"
It is the explicit sex scene that was never in The Better Man, the one between Jan (the female Kirk) and Spock.
A 1993 ad calls it "a brief indulgence, lavishly illustrated, age statement please."
Reactions and Reviews
THE BETTER MAN is an alternative Turnabout Intruder story; Kirk is trapped in Janice Lester's body and no-one except Spock believes him. He is sent, as Janice Lester, to a rehabilitation hospital to be 'cured.' Spock goes with him, determined to reveal the truth. In THE BETTER MAN, Spock and the female Kirk grow very close, but, keeping Spock in character (as is right), Sue does not let them indulge. When one is reading that zine, one feels very frustrated that the relationship is never consummated, even while recognising that it is right for it not to be. However, Sue must have felt that frustration too, because she has written that missing sex scene. She describes it as 'a brief indulgence.' and it is that, both for the author and the protagonists. I really enjoyed reading A BETTER MAN and inserting IT NEVER HAPPENED in the 'right' place. You really have to have read THE BETTER MAN to appreciated IT NEVER HAPPENED. [1]
