Six long-time friends gather for their annual New Year’s Eve party. They are meeting at Craig and Hannah’s spectacular home in the country. Hannah is a best-selling romance novelist. Craig is her adoring husband. All seems perfect.
Except nothing is. No one knows that Craig left Hannah several months ago and is living across town with another woman. Tonight, Craig and Hannah will play the part one more time. Because tomorrow will be soon enough for broken dreams and reality. Tonight, they just have to get through the party.
But they didn’t plan on the snowstorm. A snowstorm that will keep them all snowed in together for the next three days - including two ex-spouses who have both brought dates! Anyone can "play nice" for a short time, but three days is plenty of time for secrets to be discovered, for illusions to be shattered, and for resolutions to be broken.
So, dab a little perfume behind your ear, put your party dress on, and slip into your favorite heels. You’re invited to the party!

What If I Was Nothing?
They loved hard, fought harder, and broke quietly. Ryan and Hannah were supposed to last - the kind of love that survives slammed doors, sleepless nights, and promises said in the dark. But love, as they learned, doesn't always fade in one clean motion. Sometimes it unravels, thread by thread, until you wake up beside someone you no longer recognize. After years of trying to fix what was already gone, Hannah walked away. Ryan stayed - until the silence between them became too heavy to bear. Years later, Ryan has rebuilt his world. A new home. A wife who makes him laugh. A baby boy who carries his smile. He's finally found peace in the wreckage. But when Hannah reappears one morning, holding all the words she never said, both are forced to face the truth: love doesn't die - it changes. And sometimes, the hardest part isn't losing each other. It's learning to live with what remains.Complete

Play Me That Song
"The things you do for friends." He laughed softly... "Yeah. For friends," I whispered. "Is that what we are then?"....
