Axel has always been the queen of avoiding feelings. Mason Bell changes that as he smashes through in a rollercoaster that Axel has no intention of riding. Axel learns that patience is a virtue and that good things happen to people that wait but the question is, how long can you really wait for?

"Omg we are so high up in the sky right now," Mason grabbed my legs and I could see the fear but excitement dancing in his eyes. We were at the top of the ferris wheel and it was like a scene out of a movie. 

"I can't believe you're so scared right now," I giggled and his eyes narrowed.

"Have you seen where we are right now?" His eyes moved around the carriage but stopped when he saw how beautiful the water looked against the city lights.

I watched the boy I spent months avoiding in awe. He was so happy, and for the first time in the 3 years that I had known him I realised something very important. I loved this boy with all my heart and seeing him this happy, made me happy.

He turned to me and something in his face softened, he leaned in and gave me a soft kiss and my body melted.

"Pinky promise me you wont ever hurt me," I whispered against his lips.

He lifted his finger and wrapped it around mine, "I pinky promise, Angel."

"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 all the madness? ***** 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 left her at loss of what to do! 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?

About the Author: Working mother, annoying vegetarian and red wine enthusiast, Renee lives in Toronto with her flawed but wonderful family (seriously, who left socks on the kitchen counter?) in a flawed but wonderful house (what *is* that smell in the basement?).
