When Chinese-Canadian immigrant Henry Xing wanders into a bar one night, his life changes forever, There, he meets Elouise Anderson, an independent woman with a sing-song voice who immediately takes a liking to him. On the inside, their relationship is perfect. But, those on the outside can't help but notice oceans of difference between them. Elouise's closest friend Douglas is the first to point out all the things that could make their relationship fail, and Henry's friend George is never far behind. Besides, Henry is needed back home in ten months for his own wedding- once his Ma finds him a bride. When her sister gets married, Elouise is financially forced to find a new home, and Henry quickly volunteers. As she settles into her new life in Chinatown, Douglas looks for any way to uproot her life, trying not to expose his truest intentions- he wants Elouise for himself. As Canadian legislation and Douglas's meddling draws them closer apart, Elouise and Henry will have to confront their own actions and come to terms with what they've done.

A story of heartbreak, healing, and the love you never saw coming. Zarra Reynolds had it all figured out-until the man she trusted most shattered her world. After eight years together, James Moseley wasn't just her partner-he was her friend, her lover, her future. But when he suggested opening their relationship, Zarra's heart whispered no... and her instincts were right. One night changed everything. Blindsided by betrayal, Zarra stumbles-literally-into a stranger in a stairwell while trying to escape the wreckage of her love life. He's sharp-tongued, stoic, and unexpected. But behind that steel gaze lies someone who sees her in a way James never did. Now, on the verge of her 50th birthday, Zarra is forced to start over. Between therapy sessions, painful memories, and quiet mornings alone with her coffee, she never expected to feel anything for anyone again. But that stranger? He keeps showing up in her thoughts, in her life, and maybe, just maybe, in her heart. What if the love that heals you comes after the one that broke you? For fans of second chances, slow burns, and fierce women who choose themselves first.
