This is a story of the birth of a new theme park in Southern California.

The designers and investors begin with the best of intentions. They want to balance ideas like "It's a small world after all" with ideas like "In America we speak English." But big construction projects seldom go exactly as planned or budgeted. Some of the good intentions are met with centuries-old hostility, and the designers and investors are left bickering over what kind of park to build. Do they plow ahead with their original plans? Or do they compromise and accommodate? In the age of Trump, compromise is considered weakness. Should they man up and present concepts that modern cultures need to hear? Or should they act reasonably?

Leith, one of the lead designers, is a workaholic who is content in a loving, stable marriage that doesn't require much maintenance. Until he realizes that's just the theme-park version of marriage.

Frozen Embers by ftsbook

OUT NOW! Life is quiet, till it isn't. Change is abrupt and has the tendency of appearing quickly and overwhelmingly. So what else are you supposed to do, rather than detach yourself, just to survive with the change? My life was planned. I had it all written in stone and had accepted what my life would become. I never wanted a life that was very adventurous or challenging. I wanted it to all be as mundane as possible. All of this change has to slow down because I'm not sure how much of it I can handle. I was expecting to live a beige life; nothing exciting or daring, the days would be all the same till they all blended into the other, I would work a desk job and marry a man who would lie and say that he wasn't sexist but then would use microaggressions constantly and who wouldn't understand the word 'no', the normal things in life. That's what I had been prepared for. Though it sure as hell wasn't what I got.

And okay, maybe it's not really love, but there's a definite girl crush happening, which only seems to grow the more he interacts with her. He's friendly and flirty and happily admires her from afar, and she's just as friendly in response, once she recognizes his voice. But holy shit, he lives in fear of screwing up on her watch and having all that beautiful snark turned on him.
