Coffee Stories

"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?

Getting hit by a red car was just the start of a series of unfortunate events. Instead of the afterlife, I woke up in the middle of a forest as a murky, formless puddle whose only wish is for the world to finally stop spinning. Being a slime in a fantasy world turns out to be exceptionally troublesome, especially when the only thing that brings relief in this new, gelatinous existence is the memory of coffee with milk. Unfortunately, the locals aren't exactly welcoming to anomalies, and instead of help, they're more likely to offer an attempt at sudden extermination. Can you hold onto your humanity in a world where everything wants to eat you?

To the Kingdom, she is Duchess Beatrice Campbell, the perfect future Queen: a marble figure molded by relentless protocols and cruel isolation. To the palace, he is Crown Prince Garrick, a man trapped on a glass throne whose only escape seems to be the fulfillment of his duty. And in the shadows of the court is Dagur, the younger brother, blessed with the freedom that was denied to the firstborn. But behind the facades of the high aristocracy lies a hidden sanctuary: an old bohemian café in the town square. There, stripped of their titles, two teenagers play at being free under the names "Nótt" and "Bea," surrendering to a fervent and bittersweet first love that has a strict expiration date: six months. When the masks fall and the crown demands its due, Beatrice will find herself caught in a web of stark political realism, where her own family has woven a deadly trap using her innocence. Can a love that blossomed in a coffee shop survive the weight of an empire? Or will they learn that, sometimes, maturity means letting go of the bitter coffee of the past to learn to savor the complex present? A story told from three perspectives where there are no villains, only prisoners of their own lineage trying to find solace for their souls.

Lee Miyoon had no time for distractions. Between school, work, taking care of her younger brother, and carrying responsibilities far too heavy for a seventeen-year-old, life had taught her one thing early: depending on people only leads to disappointment. Hwang Hyunjin was everything she avoided. Loud, playful, annoyingly persistent and somehow always finding his way into her life no matter how much she pushed him away. What started as simple curiosity slowly became something harder to ignore. But timing was cruel. Just when Hyunjin began understanding the girl behind the cold walls, Miyoon's life started falling apart quietly. And sometimes, love doesn't disappear because feelings fade. Sometimes, life simply gets in the way.
