❝ à abattre les murs pour l'amour ❞ What happens when you fall in love with someone you can't understand- literally? Evelyn moves to Montréal having barely passed high school Latin. She expects English class to be a breeze at her French-speaking university, until she is assigned Honoré as a partner. She can't even pronounce his name, and pigs will fly when he remembers the proper conjugation of 'to be'. disclaimer: I've been to Montreal once and I don't speak much French so be patient with me.

Kintana Foulke is a planner. She made sure that everything in her life had its home. However, life as a girlboss is never easy especially when she had a close-minded boss, annoying parents who never understood any part of the life she wanted to build for herself, and a collection of jilted arranged engagements. The only part of her life that seemed untouched and made sense was the world she built on the Coffee Shop by the sea and one handsome, mysterious stranger. But what if that was about to change too? 3:00 A.M. A coffee shop. Two strangers. A hot chocolate. An espresso. A country song. A confession. A proposal. And a brewing love.

Reece Bremer goes through life with a scowl and cold personality. Jessica Andrews goes through life with a glowing smile and positive outlook. Reece looks at life with dull, judgmental eyes that make him hate the world and the people living in it. Jessica, well... She looks at life through a camera. Literally. They're polar opposites, and that's what sparks Reece's immediate hate for Jessica the moment they meet. All he sees is a girl with the best life, put in the category of those who get everything handed to them on a silver platter. But who says Jessica's life is like that? Just like a photograph, there's more to the story than what you see. Stumbling across one of Jessica's hidden portfolio might reveal that her happiness isn't all that true. Behind that smile and each picture she takes, holds a thousand words of a very big secret - one that Reece is determined to find out. And who knows? It just might change everything between them. cover by dysanic || 2015 watty's winner for talk of the town ||

When the quiet girl in Clayton Hugh's chemistry class comes knocking on his door at five in the morning barely covered up in her little pajamas, inattentive, and drooling like crazy, he has no choice but to take her inside. But once Lucy Walker wakes up inside a room she has never seen before wearing an over-sized t-shirt and gym shorts, you can imagine the pure panic setting in her. The subtle addition of Clayton entering the room shirtless doesn't help much either. After three years of fawning over him, leave it up to her sleepwalking to finally get Clayton Hugh to notice her.

They always started and ended the same way, these letters I keep receiving: "Dear reader," to "From, writer." They also came in the same unknown way every Wednesday, and though I knew not who sent them, it never really bothered me. But all that changed on the day I received the seventeenth letter.
