"Bridget Jones with a lot more wine! This story is hilarious, feel-good and relatable in all the best ways!" - Grace K @ HQ. She's just quit her high-flying job, and her marriage is coasting on fumes. Can Alice find a sense of purpose in the wreckage? ***** Alice's life isn't going to plan. She's tied to her phone, pointlessly managing PR for a sinking corporate megalith. She's become a bit player in her kids' lives, and her marriage is coasting on fumes. Forcing herself into action with a rash resignation, Alice sets out to make a positive impact on the world around her. But how? Meditation leads to napping, and her attempts to get closer to her teenage daughter result in the discovery of a secret that leaves her at a loss. As the months tick by and a sense of purpose continues to elude her, Alice finds herself forming bonds with the most unlikely characters: the young woman who panhandles outside her old office; the homeless boy who sits cross-legged outside the liquor store with his ginger cat; her own dog walker who, it turns out, knows a thing or two about developing a good crema. Testing the limits of marriage, motherhood and the Toronto subway system -- can Alice find her way into a purpose-driven life? Or will it all be one giant hangover?

When someone offered her a cheap rental in a shared pad, she immediately grabbed the opportunity, not knowing it would change her life completely. That was where she met her roommate, Alexandra Jess Case-three years older, bold, intimidating, and someone who soon became her best friend. Two years later, their bond had grown into something deeper than ordinary friendship. Alexandra had become the epitome of beauty, brains, and power-the university's student buddy president and a woman everyone admired. To Adiel, however, Alexandra was more than that. She was strength, stability, and the person who held her together.

Because sometimes, friendship is not meant to stay just friendship. And sometimes, the person who knows you best might become the one you love the most.
