"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?

Camilla and Aubrey have survived betrayal, prison, and the kind of heartbreak that should've ended them - but love always gave them a way back. Until now. When the past resurfaces in the form of familiar faces with hidden motives, cracks begin to show. A new man steps in. An old flame won't back off. And just when trust starts to feel solid again, lies, jealousy, and calculated revenge threaten to unravel everything - including their family. With loyalty divided and temptation creeping in from all angles, the real question isn't whether Camilla and Aubrey still love each other - it's whether love alone is strong enough to survive what's coming. Because sometimes, the biggest threat... is the one who already knows where you sleep.

Until one day, Zofia discovers the truth hidden behind Elias's headphones- He's deaf. And while the world mocked his silence, Zofia became the only person who stayed.

Still, one promise remained unforgettable. "One day, I'll wear a yellow dress to farewell... only when the person I truly love is there."

Kaiyang Wang - Kai - spent four years grinding toward a UofT acceptance letter, being the kind of student nobody notices and everybody relies on. Quiet. Careful. Good at math. Not so good at everything else. The summer before uni, he picks up a secondhand skateboard and decides, for once, to do something without watching the tutorial first. He's still watching the tutorial first. But then there's Cris - skatebum, sun-soaked, twenty years old and magnetic in a way Kai has no vocabulary for - and when their hands meet at the top of a baby ramp, something in Kai short-circuits in a way four years of straight A's didn't prepare him for at all. A coming-of-age romance set in the sticky heat of a Toronto summer. About first feelings. About the gap between who you've been and who you're about to become. --- tags: #skateboarding #bl #lgbt #eastasian #gen1.5 #toronto #comingofage #selfdiscovery #purelove #summerromance
